Just bought an '88 740GLE Wagon, basic 4 Cylinder, 79K miles. It was just supposed to be a simple airport car to leave in a parking lot while I'm out of town(220 days per year), but I have found myself doing everything with this car and leaving the '95 Suburban (great truck!) at home. I have several questions to anyone willing to help me out: the car vibrates similar to the vibration of bad motor mounts (this happened to a friends '94 Acura Integra, new motor mounts fixed the problem), it is worst when the car is cold, and goes away completely as soon as it is accelerated above 5-10 mph, it doesn't seem real bad and may be normal, I don't know....the moonroof occasionally sticks open, usually a tap of the cover over the motor brings it back to life, once I had to pull the cover and manually turn it a bit to get it to work, dead spot in the motor?also, when I shut the roof, It seems like my timing has to be perfect, hold the switch too long to shut it, and the other mode will open, shouldn't it stop automatically in the closed position?....what should my fuel mileage be (in mpg, with all due respect), I've only filled up once, got 27, city.
One quick comment, a tail light burned out on my way home from buying it. It took about 5 minutes to change both tail lamps (which were readily available at AutoZone), not to mention the fact that the dashboard annunciaton alerted me that a light was out! Awesome car, I love it, and it is the cheapest car I've ever bought :)
