    Default New User Here! 1991 525i Engine Swap Question...

    ...I'm thinking of swapping out my 1991 525i original engine which has 275,000+ kms on it. It's burning oil like . Do you know which engines will fit and from what year and model? I'd like to swap with an engine with more power if possible. Thanks in advance.

    Default Would you consider one off of ebay? Like this....

    You would need a new ECU and other parts if it wasn't the exact same engine.

    And if you actually care about it, you'll avoid installing anything sold by the aforementioned entity in the car.
