Re: Wanted - 3.2l Z3M Intake Elbow / 11611401996

Hey Emec,

Yeah, I saw the posts on M3Cutters, glad it's still available from BM, just a shame the Coupe's gonna have to wait another week to come out of hibernation.

If anyone has an as-new one I can get quicker, I'll take it.

There's no vibrations and there's no issues engaging gears. Doughnut sounds like the next one to check... but that doesn't fit with the location ...
