I don't think there has been a 12valve six since the m30 and m20 days of a 1990 vintage. The e36 320i and 325i was a 24 valve unit so for sure this will have 24 valves.
Look up the engine code on wilkelpedia to confirm

LCi 325i used the 3.0 engine, it is a 24 valve unit.

Look under your bonnet, your engine code on the car ID sticker will be either N53 or N52B25 (2.5L) or N53B30 (3.0L) or something, just google the one you have, there's even wiki pages on the engines. Last edited by doughboy; 03-13-2013 at 04:14 AM.. |

Thanks for the help guys, yes i got a e90 lci with the N52 engine, guess they still sold it in the e90 lci in india for more time then elsewhere. Ran a VIN check online it says i got the N52k 160kW engine.
