    Differing numbers, but is a match in terms of fitting. Not sure what numbers should be a match between the units (unit part numbers) and what numbers are unique to the individual units (unit serial numbers)

    I know there are differences between years / vehicles with ASC vs DSC but I believe this to be the correct unit for my vehicle, just unsure regarding the programming thing?

    The rain over the last couple of weeks has revealed a pretty decent water leak into the passenger footwell of my 130i 😞 

    Any tips of where to look? I can't see anything running in around the door, the plastic trim and carpet that runs up to the door is all dry, but up where you'd rest your feet is soaked! No sunroof so it's not that usual culprit. Could it be windscreen seals? Any tips from people who've had similar would be much appreciated!

    blocked skuttle panel drains,(leaves etc) then floods through the air intake for the blower fan 

    runs down through the blower fan

    straight over the fuse box and body modules

    also if window regs are not working and door card membranes ripped

    Alright I got it wrong, that raised passage is oil drain back (not coolant) so the gaskets with circle holes instead are all fine. The main issue is getting an appropriate bore size. My M90 has been bored to 93.9mm, so a 94mm gasket or bit larger. Sounds like an M5 / S38 motor gasket will work, if I can find one by itself (not in a full gasket set)!

    Cheers @Mad_Max. Makes sense, and I guess it's probably why the BMW ETK shows the new design with the right part number.

    I'm matching gasket to the block of course, but worth noting I'm using a B35 head on this.

    @BM WORLD I have an Elring gasket that looks the same in design but the bore size is too small - my M90 has been bored out a tad (can't recall exactly how much, have asked builder). I think that Victor Reinz 02-27340-05 one you have has 93.4mm bore sizes right?

    also you could get custom MLS type made 

    i had a custom made years back to suit a m88 bored to 95mm

    i think also someone in nz maybe?
