    Bay Area Folks: Anyone Got A Spare M42 Crank Sensor?

    I ran into some car trouble today, with the suspected culprit being the crank sensor. Before I spend close to $300 on a new one, I would like to see if I can swap in a known good one to verify the issue. Do any Bay Area M42 owners have a spare that I can try out (or buy so I don't need to spend $50 on overnight shipping).

    I am in the south bay area and can take Lyft to meet you, or possibly borrow my wife's car if she isn't out running errands.

    Issue is being documented here:

    I don't have an extra. You could possibly put yours on my car though

      I have a brand new Bosch replacement sensor I can sell you if you're interested.

      Shoot me a PM.

        Thanks guys. A local E30 owner in the family drove over yesterday to help with troubleshooting. My issues probably were not entirely due to a bad crank sensor, but rather the thing that it reads. The sensor probably didn't have much life left in it either. This one is going to hit the wallet hard!
