I found a 530i I might be able to pick up and was wondering which one(s) are best. Thanks.

The 265 uses the same main case as the 4 speed 262 and thus is marked '262' just to confuse matters.The getrag you want has a removable bell housing and 3 distinct pieces to the body of the transmission. If you do not see the 4 nuts that attach at the bell housing, it probably will not work.

what year 530i? that's probably a v8 car, not even close to what you need.
I found an e28 M5 in the yard and It had a trans you could have used, I think I might actually grab it. For starters I have a 530i and I had my face against that transmission for a couple hours and it does not have a removable bell housing, So scratch that idea.
BMW made a 3 litre V8 for use in 5 series cars?
^^^ the dogleg 5-spd? with 5th being 1:1 and 1st gear is down below reverse? that box can go for $1000-$1500. pretty sure that was europe only, you probably have the 4-spd getrag 262 no?
here's a good info ID source for these transmissions..

Its a 79 euro 633csi so i think it has the one everyone wants. Everything in the interior is German, kinda cool!
yep, the last few years of the e34 530i , it can be distinguished from the earlier il6 cars by the use of wider kidney grilles.BMW made a 3 litre V8 for use in 5 series cars?
holy ****, was the motor there? that's an s38 if it's a real m5. DO WANT.
