It will likely require a pull on a jig to execute it correctly.

The cross-piece is decidedly misaligned, raising concerns about the potential presence of a bent chassis leg behind the hood.

Currently, there are no W213 E63 saloons available on Autotrader for under £37,000. I am uncertain whether you are informed about the current valuation of these vehicles. I would not place significant importance in Motorway's valuation of the aforementioned 44,000-mile 2018 vehicle. I aim to increase it by £4,000 to £5,000, which is attainable. If the engine of the aforementioned vehicle is intact, the value of £10,000 is nearly depleted if sold in parts. I dedicated numerous hours over the course of 12 months or more meticulously verifying the costs and choices of these vehicles before ultimately purchasing mine. In contrast to other models, there is not an excess of them available for purchase at any given time. I believe there were never more than 52 saloons, and at one point, the number decreased to 23, thereby providing a limited selection of vehicles. The car in question is not a suitable example, regardless of its condition, whether damaged or undamaged. However, if undamaged, it would be valued at over £30,000, in my opinion. I find amusement in observing Autotrader listings for pricey Edition 1 vehicles featuring matte finishes, still bearing asking prices in the upper £50,000 range, despite being on the market for several months. Sellers must maintain realism; yet, even a dog like the aforementioned might still command a reasonable price from a someone with a constrained budget eager to get one. It required several years for the 212 to decrease in price to below £25,000, and the same applies to the 213, which has fallen below £35,000 (in my opinion, of course).

In my opinion, that car, even in 'non-crashed' condition, was never valued at £35,000 in this world. My 2018 vehicle, which has 44,000 miles, is currently valued at approximately £38,000 according to Motorway. Therefore, with 104,000 miles, even that asking price seems overly ambitious.

Indeed, it must be priced at ten thousand dollars, which likely approximates the amount the seller originally invested. It is an almost eight-year-old vehicle with 100,000 miles on it. It would be challenging to locate an individual willing to spend 30k for it in pristine condition.

Precisely. This may attract individuals capable of performing repairs and who plan to retain it for the long run. Otherwise, it will require a significantly reduced price to facilitate a sale. A platform such as Car Vertical will display images of the damage, and the Cat N designation will remain on record. This is not a vehicle I would consider, whether in its current state or after repairs.

Perhaps £5,000 allocated for materials and £5,000 for labour, thereafter transferring it to a country that overlooks its classification as a write-off? We must not underestimate the potential for unforeseen issues unrelated to crashes that may require repair on a motor with 100,000 miles "con brio." It is difficult to conceive of anyone purchasing it "repaired" in the UK for £30,000, given that it was valued at £35,000 prior to Lemony Snicket's "A Series of Unfortunate Events."

I believe £35,000 is a reasonable estimate considering the miles and the poor condition of the interior. Individuals such as Mat Armstrong would excel at repairing that; but, the expense of new components would be considerable.

I am unfamiliar with such matters, but what was its value at 100k "prior to the misunderstanding?" Did it possess a value above £35,000? If it was sold for £20,000, it is likely destined for Eastern Europe and, after repairs, will proceed to Southern Africa (RHD) or Cyprus.

Currently sold; arriving on YouTube shortly.

That will be operational again; it may require an inexpensive repair.

This appears to be rather simple, especially compared to more challenging repairs shown on YouTube. If I cannot undertake the task myself, I would refrain from engaging with it. Substantial financial resources would be expended, although it would never possess the value of a vehicle with an unblemished background. Additionally, there are insurance complications associated with vehicles that have been totalled. Their decision to write off such a costly vehicle due to purportedly minor damage illustrates the exorbitant costs associated with adequate repairs.

Contemplating the feasibility of this concept. And it's already on 100K miles. The rear appears organised, ha ha!

The release bearing is damaged. The subsequent procedure involves seizing and perforating the clutch cover. You must remove the gearbox and replace the clutch. Relatively simple to manage them, even when positioned on axle stands. A new clutch costs approximately £120 for a four-cylinder non-air conditioning model (solid flywheel) and somewhat more for a 328i variant. Adhere to reputable brands such as LuK or Sachs. Typically, the 316i/318i/318is models from that year equipped with air conditioning use a twin mass flywheel.

It would be prudent to install a new clutch concurrently, as it entails the same level of effort.

Are you aware of the part number? I will attempt to rectify it.

The issue may likely be the thrust bearing, which can become loud yet function effectively for many years.

However, the noise originates in the gearbox, caused by friction during rotation.

I would examine the number 4 bushings or the springs.

I possess a 1995 E36 with a manual 5-speed transmission, and I am experiencing a noise when depressing the clutch pedal. What is the method to resolve this issue? Is it merely a bearing replacement?
