Ok, so far none of our leads has helped much with pics or info on the 323ti battery. I found a new member on the 318ti yahoo group who just acquired a 323ti. He posted a few pics in his yahoo photo album after I kindly asked him to, but not any that give us the detail we are looking for. Should we pay this guy a little $$ to have him tear down the battery compartment so we can get a better look? I want to know, don't you? http://autos.ph.groups.yahoo.com/gro.../view/14a0?b=1 His name is Noel Auger. I'm going to ask him and report back. __________________

I will be getting my Euro spec 325Ti in about 3 weeks I can post pics of the hatch floor and maybe some diagrams if you like. | | | | | 02-27-2006, 04:07 AM | #52 | | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 |
e36 ti or e46 ti? i'm guessing the latter. i'd have to do a part number comparison to see if the e46 would be comparable. still be interesting to see __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles

It's a 98 so I believe it should be an E36 | | | | | 02-27-2006, 02:46 PM | #54 | | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 |
was it converted by an individual? the ETK shows production years as below: e36 323ti: 01/1997 - 08/2000 e46 325ti: 02/2000 - 12/2004 do you happen to have the last 7 digits of the VIN of the ti you're getting? we could look it up in the ETK then __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles

I'm just going to jump in here with my partially informed opinion. Based on looking at the various pictures and diagrams posted here, I can't see this working unless you swap the US floor part with the Euro part. If you check Noel's pictures on the Yahoo group, you can see the hole for accessing the spare lowering gear is in the bottom left of the area in question. Ours is right about in the middle. It also looks like he has a completely different mechanism for lowering the tire. It actually looks much more sophisticated than our silly little plastic handle. It would be cool if this was plug and play, but it just doesn't look like it. | | | | | 02-28-2006, 12:32 AM | #60 | | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 |
yeah, unfortunately i tend to agree with you after alaskablue measured the depth and it was only 4" or so deep. i'm going to strip out the rear trim and see what ideas i come up with. __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles
