You should have an accompanying 800rpm idle (instead of 650). I just replaced mine last week. You'll need a new sensor (I paid $75) and the o-ring. The sensors were redesigned some time in late 03, and do look different than what came out of my car (my exhaust one was replaced years ago under warranty). It's hard to see because it's wedged in behind the intake VANOS solenoid, but if you look at the front right of the head (looking into the engine compartment), find the solenoid (the 1.25"x3" silver can) and look in the tiny space between it and the head. That black plastic thing is it. - Buy new parts - Make sure the car hasn't been running for a while (you want to try and get as much of the oil back into the pan) - Go under the car and find where the sensor's wire plugs into a wiring box and unplug - Unplug and remove VANOS solenoid (need some sort of 30mm wrench) Make sure solenoid plunger doesn't fall out and go missing. It will also leak oil from there, so have towels. - remove bad sensor (5mm allen key) - oil new o-ring and install new sensor - reinstall VANOS solenoid, plug everything back in. I should go back and see if the code is still stored, but my MIL went out immediately after I first started it. >Is this for the exhaust camshaft pulse generator?

Was going to install in my car, but now need the cash. Bought for $200+ shipping, hoping to sell for what I've got in it ($200). Will come with the AiNet cable (for alpine heads) To work with the factory radio, it will need a BMWALP1 adapter, available from crutchfield for $80, or I will include one, for $80. With this it plugs directly into the factory head unit wiring (in the trunk) and actually mounts where the factory changer does (especially on e36 cars). I have an aftermarket alpine head unit (9835) so I did not need this adapter. Good solution for MP3s on factory radio. Will sell whole package for $285 shipped (touching states). Guaranteed not DOA. Can also include factory mounts (e36 or e39) for alpine changers (including carpet covers) and extra magazines - uses same magazine as stock changer. Email for info.

They will fit any E38 from 1995 - 2001 (they came off a 1999 740i). I bought them to use since I thought the amber indicators would look better on my Calypso red 7, but I was wrong. They are in great shape, come complete with bulbs and sockets; all you do is plug in. Email for pics. Asking $200, obo Andy ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2006 09:42:38 -0800 (PST) From: Mr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], bmwuucdigest@uucdigest.com Subject: Looking for an M3 Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Greetings all! Im looking to buy an E46 M3 and am looking for the following combinations. Blk/red or Silver/blue. Are these combinations uncommon? Ive found a couple of blk/red combinations but no silver/blue. I already have a blk/blk E36 and dont feel like another blk/blk combo. The silve/black combo doesnt do much for me either. Especially since my g/f has a silver/black E46 that I drive all the time. I saw the blk/cinnamon combo but that cinnamon looks like baby food on its way out the baby if you know what I mean. Any suggestions? TIA!! Manuel Paredes 95 325i lots of mods (230k) L.A.
