I recently purchased a '93 740i. I have been told of some things to look out for by a mechanic that was recommended to me (like I have a leaky transmission seal where the cable enters the side of the transmission!) What I am looking from from the members of this group is what items might be common maintence spots on the E32. Any maintenance tips you can provide will be much appreciated!
Thanks. |

One major issue is the engine block, and what high-sulfur fuel does to it.
You may want to check in with Brett Anderson, at http://www.koalamotorsport.com/. He is a professional BMW wrench, and has a pay-for-answers service.
He has a writeup on his site that describes the nikasil- versus alusil-treated block and high sulfur fuel problem on the M60 V8. |
