: Hi everybody, I need a lot of help !

: Here is a brief list of my troubles :
: 1. Check Engine light came on a few days ago. Also has
: a rough idle sometimes, but NOT ALWAYS ! There is
: some noise coming from under the car (catalic
: converter ???)
: 2. The remote control won't work (can not be
: programmed so doesn't do anything)
: I can alarm and disarm the car with the key only.
: 3. None of the front windows works and neither the
: driver side rear. Strange but the passenger side
: rear works just fine.
: 4. I'm missing a lower part of the bumper and the
: spoiler . Anybody has a used one ? Or maybe a CSI
: front bumper ? (does anybody makes an aftermarket
: bumber for the E31 ?)
: 5. Finally at last but least : The key stuck in
: the ignition and has to play with it for a few
: minutes to get it out. I used WD40 but didn't help
: I can turn on and off the engine but can not pull
: the key out. I managed to pull out a few times but
: took me 35 minutes for the first time, and 5 for
: the second time. Anybody had anything like that ?

: Comment : The car is new to me, was purchased only 3
: days ago from an insurance company - AS IS. I'd like to fix most of the problems becuse I had a bad luck with my d(s)tealers, especially if it comes to electronics. Any help is greatly appriciated !

: Thank all of You !
