We use the E46 M3 Euro perforated/floating rotors (same design as the CSL rotors, just 20mm smaller diameter) without any issues. I can't say the same for generic aftermarket drilled. That can be bad news for track use. - Rob ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jamie Howton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: bmwuucdigest@uucdigest.com Subject: Re: [UUC] E34 - cross drilled rotors Date: Sat, 11 Aug 2007 17:25:12 -0500 > I am interested to see what will happen with the rotors on > my 06 M Roadster with time.

I just did an engine swap and re-used the original automatic transmission. The car drives perfectly, but keeps setting a check engine light for code P0741, 'Torque Converter CKT Performance or Stuck Off' according to my Actron CP9135 code reader. I did change the filter and fluid of the trans, but touched nothing else. Any clues on what might cause this code to keep setting? Thanks.

Scroll down until you see E36/46 Rear Outer Bushing/Bearing Tool. I have used this tool on a friends car, and it works pretty well-just make sure you have a big hammer and it will go pretty easily.
