    Brought this beautiful e46 316ti for £500 as a project car. It is smoking alot when on Idle at traffic lights. Possible valve stem seals? If so can anyone help with advice on putting a 2.5 or 3.0L engine in? Don't want to scrap the car

    Good morning, I have a 2004 330cd which I purchased around 10 months ago. It came on BC racing coilovers which made the ride unbearable for daily use so I replaced the rears with OEM standard M-sport suspension (Top mount, shock, springs, dust cover, bump stop, all washers etc). Since then I...
