If he buys the V-6 he's going to be at it alot longer, cause the front clip has to come off.

Get the 1.8T that thing is a little rocket. Faster stock than the V6 also...
I raced a 3.5L new maxima and smoked' it on the interstate!
Buckshot,
Here is that VIN# 3VWSE69M82M178108
PS got the water sensor ordered through rockauto....$21 to the door.
It had the 4 prong black sensor. The one I ordered is the updated green unit.

Finally got back to this - didn't have time to drive it today, so perhaps sometime early this week. Just saw your figure for the T-belt & WP service - and !Ouch! that's in line with my old (and missed) Acura Vigor (5-cyl) that was $1350.
For referance, A '95 Volvo 850 Turbo (also 5-cyl) I used to own was $285 parts & labor for a waterpump & T-belt service. This was at a Chicago-area Volvo dealer and they also replaced the drive belts. Then again, the 325i's I'm also considering use a chain. But thier "inspection" services more than make up the differance....
