I have owned my 89 E30 325is for 6 years and the clicking noise has never changed. I keep adjusting my valves and the noise never changes. I have listen to other E30's and some sound worse then mine. IM planning to replace the injectors soon and see if it changes

I can get new Bosch ones (6) for $216.00. Also some people have claimed the Mustang 5.0 injectors are a perfect upgrade which can be has for less then $216.00. I figured with my car having 256,000 miles the injectors have to be worn out. I tried to figure out how many times they have cycled once the number was

$216 is a great price for new ones! the best I can get them is $41 each

I've heard that the fox body mustand V8 19lb injectors work just fine in the E30 M20 engine
