no one cares what you have to say kenny, just get the fuck out of my bimmer thread. if it was a cark thread, or lc2 thread then ok i will allow you to be a port of it, but you have no say
where you getting your prices from? I just checked egay and they are all like 9-10k. Also I really don't want a manual tranny. if its going to be my daily i want an auto.
In order to really determine what is wrong with it we are going to need a sound clip of it from 3-8000 rpm range. That is the only real way to see what is up with it.
