        do you have an ETA? If not, then you will never find them.

            A 325is has the M20B25 engine, which has the crankshaft position sensor mounted at the bottom front of the engine. More or less between the AC compressor and the block on the exhaust side. The cylinder ID signal is from the ignition wires.

            Early M20B27 engines had the crank position and ID sensors mounted in the bell housing.
            The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
