If you're willing to take the risk, ain't nothing wrong with that

Enter the gearbox type on the ad as it doesn't show if you search manual bmws. Should get a few more hits

Fs: complete m62b46 - if you are going v8 then this is one you want. Out of an x5 4.6is done around 205km, has a few oil leaks as expected. Also comes with 5/7 series oil pump and a non vanos lower timing cover so you can fit a standard alternator which is needed for clearance in you e36/e46. Hoping for 5k.. Selling as opportunity to go 1jz has appeared Christchurch

This will be interesting to see where the market sits. Especially compared to the rough $45k one https://www.trademe.co.nz/5140389388

Remote keys for e36 are NLA. I got a non remote key for a compact last year. Cant remember how much but wasn't crazy

Car is like 5months old and under 500km and bmw insurance used to replace the vehicle pretty quickly if it was under a year old from memory. I'd imagine the wait on parts is probably significant so also the cost of the driver having a loan car would stack up quickly. Insurance companies also get monitored on how long claims are open for which also impacts their decisions

Elite wheels for the rim repair

@BMTHUG your old one?

Looks hot mate, even if it is mtech1 🤣

Regulator is Skoda talk for thermostat. Best to replace them together as they always leak all the time.

Yes control units do go faulty. Replace all 6 glow plugs and the control unit
