In Reply to: What was the '79 530i engine size?? posted by donpeak on March 07, 2001 at 20:42:37:

are notorious for running poorly and overheating, primarily because of the emissions hardware, which was all changed in '79 when the car became a 528i. make sure head not warped. check your local emissions requirements, etc. etc.

'74 tii
'89 900Tconv.
'81 528i (when i get lucky and find the right one while, at the same time, have the right money).

-ex 533i
-ex 535is



I saw this car on a used lot.....auto trans. and the back
sign said 530i. can not find this on the mb. was this
before the 528e??? they say it is a '79.
thanks,
