Where should i start!! I own a 1992 900s non turbo. 129000miles. Several problems have occured. BTW, I've already wasted $3500 in repairs trying to bring up to working order, I'm the second owner. I went to see what they would give at the BMW dealership today....HAHA r uready.... $300. yeah right. I'm going crazy.. I'm to the point of giving the car away.

1 The temp guage continually fluctuates from half to near the H level.
rad repalced, thermostat repalced 3x, new cooling fans, shorted the ac fan to stay on all the time, new hoses, new water pump, bleed system. Overheated while i was driving 80mph, stopped immediately,. No white smoke when its on

2. The battery keeps dying on me.
Alt replaced 2x, new battery 3x, died on me today and decided to buy a new battery.

3 The brake fluid light comes on and stays on but its only dim then fades and comes on again bright then dim.
Got the bomb replaced aka accumulator, funny thing is the antilock brake light turns on then after driving turns off and the brake fluid light comes on and stays on the dims down turns off the comes back on.
4 The SRS light stays on
don't know but the sterring wheel jiggles up and down maybe that could be the problem?!?!
5 All on a sudden the car (lost??) about .5 tank of gas.
when the battery died today it revved up to about 1000rpm, looked up and wonder how lost a little less then half a tank of gas. gas tank replaced already
6 Car looked like it was smoking white from exhaust then stopped?!?
looked like raditor fluid but didnt smell like it, then i thought it was gass....never overheated so i looked under the exhaust it was leaking something and making burn white???
