Engine Alloy Question (archive)

Hello Everyone,

Is there an easy way to check to see whether an engine has been replaced to fix the nikasil alloy problem, or it is still the old version?

I purchased a 94 840CI which came out of a lease, and I just discovered this forum and started reading about this problem.

What would be the procedure to get the factory to cover the engine replacement if I have the old faulty engine? The vehicle has ~58510 miles on it and I read a replacement is good for up to 100000 miles.

Any information would be great.

Thanks!
