I've always dreamt of owning a new car with a warranty, but student loans and child support have thwarted that dream for a long time to come. |
Bentley is about $120 retail so $75 is a great deal!
Glad you are back. I will monitor the thread more closely now.
Be careful taking the battery cables off and on. The "T" bolts are stainless steel as are the nuts, so the threads can gall. Use some copper anti seize and you'll be good to go. How do I know this? Well, I broke mine and got to go googling until I found replacements for ~$15 each!  And they are VW parts to add insult to injury!
Good luck on your fix it project. Join the local chapter of the BMW club and you'll likely meet people local to you that can help too!
