I just added #68 and #69. My 1985 I have had for 15 years and 380,000 miles and the engine has given up but the vehicle itself is in great shape.
My 1986 Canadian market, just purchased from the original owner,through a broker, always garage kept 107,000. miles in extremely original condition, very well maintained car which I feel is a very rare find
and glad to have found it as I had become very attached to my 1985 and would really have missed this model.

Re: 524td owner roll call - how many are on here?

Post by Kopek130 »

Stu here from Fairfax VA, just joined this group.

Parents have a 524TD 1985 that's been with the family since the beginning. Bought in Germany when parents were stationed there, moved back to the states, had kids, back to Germany again, engine overhaul around 2005 don't know all the details, now back in the states, now it mostly sits. Odometer went at 150k, possibly has 190k now.

Currently drives nicely. I could easily swap things like the suspension and improve the ride, but it'd be silly to do that if the engine isn't healthy. Even though it is healthy, I want to learn more about it and how to maintain it given how rare it is.

My mechanical experience on engines is practically none, only have gone as far as replacing a thermostat on my sienna and cleaning the throttle body. I know that it hurts you guys to read this that someone like myself has such a beautiful car but don't know squat about engines, rest assured I won't be an idiot and blowup the car.

Re: 524td owner roll call - how many are on here?

Post by rws4steelers »

rws4steelers.....I recently bought a 1985 BMW 524td Gold with tan interior. It runs but the injector light stays on and it doesn't run very well right now. Very clean car in excellent shape otherwise. I am actually in the market for the #4 injector with the wires attached to it. ANY help will be greatly appreciated!

Re: 524td owner roll call - how many are on here?

Post by fgristina »

Just began restoring a 04/85 524td. Motor running nice. Getting ready to reduce the idle tomorrow. Instrument cluster is not working so I am working through that. Car lived in FL until 92 then sat idle until now. 104K on odo.

Had to put a rotary pump with impact stritch in trunk until I can source an intank pump. Works great for $40 bucks

Wish list....

Cluster that works.
Power antenna that works.
Lower idle.
Propane?

Cheers
