Hi,

I just purchased a 1995 E34 which has a OBC as seen in pic1. However my earlier E34 (1991) had the type as seen in Pic2 where i could get a whole lot of info like avg, arr etc.

Is it possible to retrofit the second type of OBC into my car.

Any input is appreciated

Thanks
Steve

Should be do-able...

Thanks to all for responding

Yes that is not what i expected either. My 91 had the digital one and when i saw this one with the analog one, i was surprised.
I'll be picking up the car next week and will see what else needs to be changed.
The car has had one owner and 92K original miles.

I will be a regular on this board now.
