Peter,

That is exactly my plan. I just wanted to get a specific response from the e-bay guy that I could include in my request to Marlin to sort out the ECU/EWS.

It will be an interesting discussion if they turn round and admit that they can't address this problem. I really don't want to go chasing a new engine but it might be cheaper than a new Engine management system and re-mapping -I have been quoted £1,000 to £1,500 for this. An alternative might be to swap my E39 for an E36 through one of the engine re-furb places but that will also be a lot of hassle as I assume I will also need the associated ECU, steering barrel with key etc.?

The engine I have was manufactured in December 1998.
