is it feasible to keep the obd2ness of the m62 when swapping it into an e30? i love the factory drivability of stock dme but want to be able to have it work in the e30.

I have the ews system and key, came with the motor, but have no idea how to have the ecu disregard its dsc functions and only control the motor.


any tips/ideas would be much appreciated.

glenn got an s62 to work on the original loom and ecu, so it is possible. I also know that some m62 can be switched to normal analogues signals instead of using the bus with the bmw diag' tools (source e30.de)

that's unfortunately beyond my limited field of expertise - I only have the wiring diagrams for my engine.
Other people on here should be able to help you out better.
