Hey guys, I'm about to freak out over here :angryfire
I'm trying to get a 3.2 motor from BMW and have them install it. Talked to a tech and said it was an easy swap and that he has done it before (I know what has to be done to do the swap, by the way).
But now, BMW is telling me that they can't cover it under warranty because the engine is not "made" for my '95. The parts manager even claimed they had done this before and had numerous problems with it (electrical). They even tell me they won't sell me a 3.2 :confused !
WTF am I to do? Should I let them bend me over and just accept going w/ the 3.0? ($10,000 for everything) After busting my motor, I thought this would be the perfect oppurtunity to upgrade.
Has anybody had any problems at all with this swap? Cause I have heard of none, and it's leading me to believe for some reason BMW is B.S.ing me.
