So I remember that someone had given me the part number for the remanufactured engine but I can't find it now. MY car has been drinking oil (a quart every 400 to 500 miles) and smokes like crazy when idling and starting from a stop light (so much that people feel compelled to tell me that my car is smoking!). Just the parts and renting the AGA tools is about $1K plus my car has about 142K miles so I'm afraid of rod bearings going bad too.
So I'm thinking of biting the bullet and replace the engine but I'm currently working on the engine of my E28 ('86 535i manual transmission) so I need to finish this one first.
Can anyone share the part number with me?
Thanks in advance!
