im doing a swap right now but i was told i need a 6 cylinder throttle cable?
is this tru or can i use the original cable from the m44?
if i can how this seems to be my only dilemma. please help need to get my car on the road already......

You need a throttle cable from an M50 or S50 e36.

Thankszzz guys!!

Both cAn be used.. I've had my swap for over a year and still using m44 throttle cable

Tell me how please.. Lol would save me som money and labor

It should connect the same way on the s50 throttle body the same way it does on the m44.. I really didn't do anything else other than that.. The cable is a lil too long but it loops around and it works fine

U think you can post a pic?

Motor has been removed from my car..

PN 35411163228 only cost $26.30 @ getbmwparts.com. Such an important part, I'd replace it with the correct one.

These things come back to haunt you.
Besides, the cable is plenty old already and could use replacing anyway.
