They are different, the e46 has dual vanos which is a updated m52tu......Without doing some serious machining or modification it will not work.

Heres a link to guy from active that tried it and failed.

Tech junkies chime in! Intake manifold upgrade... - E46Fanatics

He doesnt mention that his car is a vert....I am just assuming it is a e46 because that code is alot more common on the e46 then the e36.

But hey what do i know...

The radio installer did a crappy job and crossed the Amp wire or some other hot wire into the brake wiring?

Was the stock radio always in place? or was it put back in at some point when the car was sold.
