The belt failure occurred at startup or very shortly thereafter. The mechanic that fixed the vehicle was surprised. Whether it is also possible for an E30 to escape damage I do not know; but, clearly it would be unusual. )) She luckily had the 8 valve motor. We had the 16v and it wasn't a 'rollover' engine. Recommended replacement at 60k, ours broke at 62k. I still have one of the valves.

Never mind, it is probably best for us not to know.

I would love to buy it, but I already have a GMC EM50 (think Stripes) style motorhome. http://kansascity.craigslist.org/rvs/458883179.html Regards, Paul Craven 1999 528iT 1991 M5 1973 GMC Painted Desert ------------------------------ End of [bmwuucdigest] digest(3 messages) **********
