This should be an easy one for the experts here...
I have a 2007 335i coupe/auto/rwd with a seized engine and a perfect body that I have come into. Are there any other models' engines that are compatible with this vehicle and that will not complicate things further?
I am ok with a "downgrade" to a 330i/530i engine if that is what I can find to get this car up and running.
So...in summary...
Will an engine from say, a 2006 330i or 530i fit my 2007 335i?
Thanks for your help.
No, an other engine than a N54 is not a direct swap. It will physically fit, but everything else is different. Wiring harnesses, DME, etc. Do yourself a favor and get the same engine that you have. It'll be a direct swap.
