| 8 Series (E31) (1991 - 1997) As the last E24 rolled off the production line in 1989, its replacement was quick on its heels to fulfill the fantasies of those looking for a touring coupe with all of the luxury, performance, and prestige of a BMW, only now with both 8 and 12 cylinder engines. |

AC Install questions
Hello, well the new compressor is in but was told by my BMW car guy that I needed to change out the reciever / dryer. On my '93 850 is this it? ( NOTE: Cool Phoenix Engineering Tensioner eh?)
 I bought this from Autohaus thinking it was the right part, I gave them the PN from RealOEM and this is what I recieved:  They're not the same as you can see. So, fellow 8'ers of the world, what the heck is the first picture, and or do I have the wrong part or Where the bloody hell does that big Chingas in the second picture go?

First picture should be the ASC+T filter.

you will also want to replace the expansion valve - relatively cheap, but a very good idea.

Yea, its irritating if the xp valve goes out, as your a/c will erratically cut out during operation.
