1) The right turn signal of my 1988 325i flashes very quickly on the dash, but does not work on the exterior of the car. I have replaced the flasher under the dash, but I still have the problem. Do I need to replace the turn signal lever?

2) How do I get the programmed "change oil" light to turn off?

3) Where is the fule filter on this thing. There is a cylindar on the driver side 1/4 panel, but it is not the filter.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Suggested Repair

Check the turn signal bulbs. Reset the change-oil light with a BMW reset tool. The fuel filter should be under the car near the fuel tank.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 1988 BMW 325i reported a right turn signal that flashes quickly on the dash but does not work outside after the flasher was replaced, and asked whether the turn signal lever needs replacement. They also asked how to turn off the programmed change-oil light and where the fuel filter is located, noting a cylinder on the driver-side quarter panel is not the filter. The expert advised checking the bulbs, using a BMW reset tool for the oil light, and looking under the car near the fuel tank for the filter.
