Yes I have a 97 328ic here in the states--I just started getting that code thrown--my car still runs fine--but I ordered the part thru pelicanparts.com for $85 and here is the URL below for the install--
My mechanic quoted 1 hour of labor---so if you have a good mechanic---maybe just take it in--
the part of pretty cheap---good luck---!!
