SOLD. Went to a fellow BMW enthusiast in Austin.
yes, shoot me an offer
This car was previously owned by Classic BMW employee. It's a nice example but a bit overpriced based on mileage.
I forgot to mention that diff flush was done around 108k along with new steering coupler.
Yes, I would agree with $4k figure to get it all done properly. It is a 3.46 as I found out after speaking with Jim at Performance Gearing. Great LSD unit and highly recommend it as part of your swap.
I had replied back to your PM, let me know if you didn't receive it.
I a nutshell, there is a thread on M3forum listing all parts needed to take SMG to 6sp manual, same list applies to ZHP or any...
Hey everyone, listing my ZHP to see if there is any serious interest amongst community members.
Little bit of history: I bought this automatic ZHP back in April of 2015 in fairly neglected state...

another one from Texas
I'm few miles away from McKinney if anyone wants an opinion.
Any codes? Early e46s did suffer from vanos seals cold engine symptoms. It could also be CCV, failing electrical t-stat (incorrect reading), vacuum leak.
You shouldn't have to change VO, there are flags in DME that need to be changed to get rid of CEL. We just swapped my ZHP from AT to MT, let me know if you need help
Interested in freighting it?
Just a warning: these hybrids are made of thick plastic construction and do show their "presence". Otherwise I like them and they're cheap at Costco.
DISA valve failing/failed
Fuel filter clogged
Fuel filter vacuum line disconnected/broken
I'm betting your DISA valve is failing
Fuel pump on these cars is either working or it does not, feel...
Just a fair warning, you will likely break clip area of B-pillar covers when you remove them. Clean the belt with simple green or soap water and clean/re-grease spring mechanism. Alternatively you...
This.
Cars from up north experience oxidation in engine bay as well, this includes OEM components.
I've been in BMW community longer than ZHPs had existed, in fact, pretty sure my ZHP ownership came way before yours. Also, DrVanos (Chris Gant) had fitted one of the first ever units on my E36 M3. I...
Call Enthusiast Auto, they'll buy it for that price
Yes, got them on my Imola car and they work great.
Not defending Chris but it's difficult to warranty "fit and finish" without testing the product in various conditions. Chris doesn't have the R&D budget of BMW as far as I know. Honestly it took more...
Yes, it works great :) You do need to let it soak in and then go easy on alacantara with soft sponge or microfiber towel.
You can easily remove solenoids and repaint them, it doesn't require much skill set. Alternatively you can buy new OEM solenoids from your local dealer, they're not very expensive.
Difference between $8k and $10k is replacement of oil pan gasket and front control arm bushings.
You've stated it in your WTB thread, and if that's the case EAG should be on your speed dial.
Yes, please move on.
For those who are interested: if you purchase this vehicle and it indeed has...
worn RTABs will cause your car feel a bit "skittish" and your DSC light will blink when that happens.
