1.9 engine?
2001 Z3 1.9 engine query
Recently purchased the above, but problems straight away! Cut a long story short new engine required. Obviously sourced from a breakers yard. Found out that the engine did not match the existing gearbox? So new gearbox also. My question is what engine has been fitted if a gearbox was required? Supposedly 20k on new engine but no paperwork to support Thanks for any assisstance |

The M44 (1.9L I4) engine ran until 1998/99 in the U.S. The 2.0L I6 was sold in later Euro models (but not in the U.S). Was the car originally a 1.9L or was it originally a 2.0L?

Just use your VIN to find out if your car is 1.9 or 2.0. You'll find the built date that way also.

1.9L engine Z3 2001 model (51 plate)
The vehicle was originally a 1.9L but surely if the garage had fitted the same size engine they wouldn't have had to replace the gearbox also? If they have fitted a newer 2.0 L engine then there are insurance issues?
