Hey gang, after purchasing the car on Xmas eve, I didn't check the sound system only until recently and found that one of the speakers seemed to be cracked, I was just wondering if anyone could provide me the speak diameters of both front and back as I want to replace them all ableit the tweeters. Many thanks.

I just did an install in my Series 2 C34... Standard 6.5" all around.

Used these speakers - http://www.german-maestro.de/US/cs6508.htm

I put splits in the front - tweeters went into the factory A pillar positions and it was quite easy and totally hidden. Just make sure the tweeters are as close to the factory position as possible. While they are a bit thicker than the standard ones, the clips on the grill just clear the tweeter and it all fits up quite nicely. I connected them to the 0db point on the crossover and it sounds pretty balanced and linear.

I used a bench grinder to modify the bracket for clearance and some hot glue to glue the new tweeter into the bracket, then it all just clipped in as factory. I also had to make a 19mm MDF spacer to bolt the new driver into the door.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
