Hey guys, the m42 I got in my car is a 1994. I know BMW made some modifications to it compared to the 1991 one, so does anyone know if it still has all the problems mentioned here and in the oil pan thread??
Absolutely, but it does not have a 2 piece pan, and all bolts are outside.
Easier to check if they are loose or have fallen out. However if the pickup bolts fall out, you will not be able to look as easily. This is less of a problem than the pan bolts though.
This is also a problem on 5 and 7 series motors as well.
