<E36> HELP!!!!

Hi all!

I have a few questions/problems and am hoping for some advices and
solutions:

1- M3 SWAY BARS
I have instaled some M3 sway bars on my 1994 325is and realized that the
front sway bars on the M3 are smaller.  Is is recommended (or not) to
install the larger 325is front sway bar w/ the larger M3 rear sway bar or
should I keep the M3 setup as it and just trust BMW engineers on this one?


2- DIFFERENTIAL WHINE
My differential started to whine and I thought it was time to replace the
fluid which I did with Mobil One Synthetic Gear Oil but the whine is still
there....Any ideas?

3- V-BELT SQUEAL
I have replaced my belts and they started to squeal pretty loud eventhough
they are supposedly self-tensioning.. I triple check the fit on the pullies
and it looked ok.  Any ideas?

4- KNOCKING / MARBLES ..... Revisited
Could any of you forward me the sum-up that was done on the marbles noise
associated (if I recall correctly) with the vanos gear.  Someone told me
that noise was knocking... Is this true? I have a Jim C. chip and used
Sunoco 94? I doubt it but please educate me..I have this noise with any fuel
and it CONSISTENTLY occurs on load ie while accelerating from 2500+ rpm....

Cheers,
