Cracked my oil pickup pipe (as well as smashing my sump) 2 weeks ago. Was just wondering if all oil pickup pipes are the same for the whole range of the e30 or are they specific to each model?
Would also but much appreciated if anyone had a spare i could buy off them, dont really want to go through BMW as im sure the price will be quite a bit more

It'll be an M40 most likely, if it has a pick up pipe. On an M20 you swipe off the whole pump.
Only around £10 new from BMW, but there should be plenty around second hand.
Put an ad. in 'E30 parts wanted'.

I thought that after I replied, but I must have 24v lumps on my mind because I was thinking those instead of M20sBrianmoooore wrote:It'll be an M40 most likely, if it has a pick up pipe. On an M20 you swipe off the whole pump.
Either way, I think I paid a few pennies over £10 from BMW for the M40 pick up for mine.
