[QUOTE="e34_lover, post: 664426, member: 16259"] Started working on my car again because some issues started to emerge. Rough idle, stumbling under acceleration and a few other minor things that needed touching up. I decided that since the car is about 16-17 years old I would just replace most of the important bits. Some of the pictures are out of focus and I apologise for that. Really hard to use a DSLR with one hand. Some pictures of the parts that were used. ICV hoses.
