Re: WTB - Evaporator Box Fresh Air Flaps

I have a complete HVAC unit removed from a car I parted out. Is that what you mean by evaporator? PM me if this is what you are chasing.

Re: WTB Getrag 262 CR (dogleg)

I know they are rare as hens teeth but I am looking for a functioning Getrag 262 CR for my Euro '80 635CSi. I am going to try to get mine rebuilt but finding someone capable and with parts will be challenging and expensive. If you have any leads (tranny or restorer) it would be appreciated. Thanks!...

BMW Foam Rear Spoiler Part No 1 879 597

Geniune BMW Rear Spoiler with part number 1 879 597. The foam is weathered but still holds the correct shape and has no gouges etc. With a coat of black bumper satin this will come up good as new, will stand up better to the elements and won't need constant treatment to keep the black lustre. My fat...

Re: Starter motor options

Another +1 for the smaller starter. That inner bolt is a right pain to remove without the special half moon spanner so why not just make the correction that BMW finally made for the M30 B35 :)

Re: auto to manual swap--again

To that extent, I have a Getrag 265 with shifter and prop shaft removed and cleaned ready to install. This is the superior/stronger box over the 260. This was originally going to be for my E9 but came to realize that I needed a mechanical speedo drive output. Hence I am selling. Reach out if it int...

Re: Novice engine tune-up guide?

At 250k miles you should definitely test all your injectors. There's a good chance some are leaking or not atomizing correctly. Check the coil and resistors too to ensure you are getting good spark. As an '85 with Motronic you won't have much to do with fine tuning so rule out the maintenance items ...

Re: auto to manual swap--again

You should consider all else you need from the parts car and the effort needed to remove, store and ultimately sell. I have a bunch of parts that will likely be binned because there does not seem to be a market. Or rather I may have to wait quite a long time before somebody decides they need it and ...

Thank-you for the clarification! I still have the gearbox so will check for the sensors.

Motronic Bellhousing Relevance to Engine Management

Hi All. I have an M30b34 Motor that I pulled from a 1985 635csi. I have heard about the motronic bellhousing... what is the relevance of that? Is it for engine management? Did that only come with certain later version of Motronic or was it present already in 1985? After searching the forum I found s...

Re: Is this an M90?

Thanks for the input so far. This engine is indeed in an E12 but is not original as the car was original a 528i. Thank-you for elaborating on the raised section too. That makes sense.
