Nope, no engine issues-knock on wood!! Original motor still going strong at 147k miles, and I replaced the rod bearings just a few thousand miles ago just to be safe.

As with any E30 M3, it's the little things that are killing me. I am 'this close' to having all of the issues worked out, but these last few things are really taking a while.

I will say this-A/C work freaking sucks. I will NEVER do A/C work again-I will gladly open the checkbook for the dealer and let them have at it. Yes, it sucks that bad.
