Thank for the advice. Unfortunately, even after an oil change, air filter, and warmed her up really good, I still failed the NO 15mph test. I had to get a new cat.

Hey Guys,

I passed everything except the NO (PPM) at 15mph, measured number was 1018 and max is 815. I didn't really get to warm up the car before getting the test done. Do you think I should do some spirited driving and retry? Any suggestions is much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Everyone,

First off I'd like to thank everyone as I've found this site very helpful.

I was fortunate to pick up a 91 318is over the weekend. I'm so excited, the 91 318is is the first car I've ever bought. My new (to me) car is even the same exact color combo, white with tan interior. Now some details on the car, its been in LA all its life with a pretty complete service history, all original with 133K miles, and everything works! It's got a few cracks on the the dash but that's really it. I've owned a few cars in the past and I have to say, there is something about this car that makes me so happy to own one again.

I'll try to post pics later tonight

Current Cars:
'04 E46 M3
'79 911sc
'91 318is
'04 Civic Hybrid

Thanks again for all your help,
Anthony

Hi All,

I just wanted to introduce myself. I found this site by googling 318is's for sale. I'm so glad I found this site!

The 318is is the first car I bought with my own hard earned money. Over the years I've had a B5 s4, 996 c2, and currently have a E46 M3. But there was something about the 318is that I loved. I really miss that car. So now I'm looking. I never new there was such a cult following for this car. I thought it was only me!

Wish me luck, I'll be posting picks as soon as I find "The One"

Best,
Anthony
