The E46 325ti Appreciation Thread
Discussion
I fitted the i6 kit to mine as it was cheap - if I was keeping it forever, and money no object I'd probably buy the Beisan kit. But as it's a bit of a shed that's likely to end up with a B30 engine at some point I wasn't too worried.
Same with the cam cover gaskets - I bought the Febi set for £20 rather than 2x for the BMW OE

Well i've made a start on doing the diff output shaft seals! Bit of a pain in the back the way the compacts rear end is designed.
Found it easier to drop the spare wheel assy, lower the exhaust a bit and disconnect the sway bar.
Those axles are stubborn as all hell when trying to knock them out of the diff
Looking forward to doing the vanos and VCG as engines is more my thing, rather than rolling around on the floor getting crud in my eyes
Note to self: needs new rear tyres. again!!

Hey guys,
Hope you are all doing well?
I have read this whole thread probably twice within the past 2 years and I'm a huge Compact fanboy.
I've owned my 325ti for about a year and a half now and I absolutely adore it!
I recently did a review on my car and I thought I would share it with you guys.
Thanks for the awesome thread, it's helped me alot with gathering info in the Ti models and getting to know the cars a bit better.

Just spotted the following. Fairly pricy, auto and a weird colour but I love the interior! (steering whee excluded)

It’s just got the non Sport/M sport steering wheel. Also notice it has the electric memory seats and mirrors plus the electric folding mirror optionhttps://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201...
Should have the storage portion parcel shelf with umbrella holder but it’s just been replaced at some point with a normal one - maybe as faded in the sun

Ah it's an umbrella holder! Mine is missing the brolly.Don’t think they came standard ......and it was an expensive brolly!
Any normal golf umbrella will fit though
