Mirror Switch

Hello Gents -

Still have the E53 but it's more a standby car that's not really used. Hope the OG's are still ontop of maintenance. I know I'm semi going against the grain on this, but I have a brand new mirror microswitch FS if anyone is interested - aka, the switch that controls the rear dip. PM Me


As far as maintenance for me, I only have 2 outstanding items. Current fogs are projectors on HID. One caught a rock and glass is cracked. I'm too cheap to dump $$ into this older car to buy new a replacement (well sofar)

The whole thing got a full TLC when I had to reseal the rear diff. All new bits in the back suspension, all sorts of work including RMS, the works. I'll have to commit some time on giving it a visual, but I have a leak somewhere - color (yellow green) that I don't believe is present on any of the current fluids. The trans has a fill of Pentosin ATF1, amber and the washer fluid is mainly blue but it did have some (yellow winter fluid) thrown in the tank. Still blue for the most part. Slight headscratcher but based on the 2 spots it left (observed), going to need to look withthin the transmission area.
