does anyone know where carb is on bmw 325e

Sounds like you need to buy a book to help you understand your car.
An excellent one for the E30 325e is published by Robert Bentley.
They can usually be found on Ebay for around $20 to $40.
A lot of us on this forum were apparently born knowing everything about
BMW's and so never needed to learn.

Good Luck to You

Throttle body? In a BMW? Never seen one.

You'll have a long search. You've got fuel injection.

Me neither, but the point was that if one has to ask, they ought not be
under the hood.

Except I think it's safe to assume his car has tyres...

At least I think it's safe to assume.

Then again, wasn't that an E36 3 series I saw on worlds daftest police
chases the other day with the sparks flying out from under the arches.

The last bimmer with a carb was the 2002 ti wasn't it? Or was there
something in the mid-70's too after the 2002 passed on?

Anyway the 325e did not have a carb, he'll be a long time looking for it.

I think we missed a trick here... We could have got him spraying quick
start into his washer bottle by now.

Nope. Just plain old 2002. The 'ti was multiple carbs. The last '02s
had 2-barrel Solexes. >:^P By that time, all other BMWs, at least in
the US, were using fuel injection.
