While the vehicle was parked, the consumer noticed a liquid leaking from underneath the vehicle. The consumer was able to drive to the dealer for inspection. The mechanic informed the consumer that the fuel sending unit and fuel pump needed replacement. Please fill in additional information. *jb

The rear subframe mount points have ripped in at least one place from the unibody resulting in not being able to safely drive the car. I caught it early so no injury has resulted. This is a common (unacceptable) problem with these cars (bmw e36). *jb

I own a 1993 325is which has a tear in the subframe where the suspension component meet. Car was not modified in anyway. I just noticed this loud sound coming from the differential or rear area. Took the car into my mechanic and found out that the subframe was torn apart. Lucky it didn't come out in the highway or i would i have cause an accident and probably get killed. My mechanic has stated he seen many bmw's with this kind of problems. I have search and contacted other bmw's and it look like its a common failure in early bmw's between 1992-1995's e36. Newer model seems to have the subframe reinforce with thicker brackets and new suspension components. Total cost for the repair $3600 labor and parts. *jb

My 1993 bmw 325is has a failure of the chassis mounting points for the rear subframe of the car. The car had been feeling funny for weeks prior to this until one day the car started to shudder when taking a turn and accelerating out of it. From that day on the car felt completely detached from my steering inputs, it was obvious something was wrong. Had i not caught it when i did, more than just financial damage would have surely occured; after all, these are what hold the whole rear of the suspension and drive train the the chassis. After shelling out over $1500 for repairs to my car which included replacement of a chassis member, new bushings, reinforcement plates, and other small misc items. I did some research to find out that this is a problem that is all to common. If the rear rubber subframe mounts become weak it puts excessive stress on the unitbody. Once this happens the chassis will eventually tear, leaving the subframe completely detached from the car. The later model bmw m3's came with reinforcement plates, indicating bmw knows there is a problem. It is unethical to let such a dangerous and wide spread problem go unattended. Bmw needs to do something about this important issue.*ak

Consumer went through a car wash. At the end when pressing the accelerator engine was slow and power gone, also, when starting to go through an intersection, power failed. Washed car at home same thing happened , but less. Went back to car wash and vehicle had to be pushed out. Consumer waited for parts to dry. Dealership said the drain hose got clogged, and the water got into the computer component and vehicle would not start for three days. Dme was replaced, a bigger drain hose installed, and drilled a hole into the component so tha t access water could drain out. Bmw sent a bulletin to dealership on this matter. There were a total of 20 car washes in the san franando and los angelas counties that received reports of similar problems with this make/model and year.*ak
