If its the 4dr saloon you are talking about then it would not have started out with a 3.91.

We'll tbh I don't think that the diff would have been changed in this and it definitely hadn't been changed in the tech 2 coupe I've got so I'm sorry Barry but I can't really see how you can still think you're right

Because i know thats what ratios 325i's come with from new.

What's so hard to understand?

Can you prove me wrong otherwise from what you THINK?

I am telling you the 4dr 325i saloon in manual form should, from new, come with a 3.64 and the tech 2 325i sport should have a 3.91.

PM me both VIN's and i can prove to you what ratio they came with from new.

I'm right, just like i was with the E39 Alpina touring you PM'd me saying had an LSD from new and i proved to you it didn't and neither did any E39 Alpina from my own source and from the info you gave to me to prove other wise! :mad:
