Default Does anyone know if the European version of the E46 M3...

is having the same problems with the engine as the NA version. I have a friend with a 2002 E46 M3 and he wants to supercharge it. I am trying to tell him that he should wait until this problem with the engines grenading is fixed by BMW.

Default yikes...that motor is way too high strung to be supercharged

I hope he has the cash to buy a new motor, because I doubt BMW would be very happy to warranty a supercharged car witha blown motor.

I haven't hear a thing about the Euro cars having problems, so who knows...but it would still be pretty damn risky.

Default seeing in the fact that those engines are popping like they are, id say wait it out (more

unless your friend has a lot of money and time for when the engine does go.
