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 __________________ 318ti MZK2 | | | 03-17-2011, 04:10 AM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2008 Location: Miami Posts: 244 | Quote: Originally Posted by 318_mzk2 It should connect the same way on the s50 throttle body the same way it does on the m44..

Besides, the cable is plenty old already and could use replacing anyway. __________________ ...steven BMW CCA #146825 1996 BMW 328ti • 2003 MINI Cooper S • 2016 M235i www.bmwcca.org | | |  | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Thread Tools | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
