Thanks for these posts.  I have a 91 318is, and my Bentley manual has essentially nothing about the M42 motor, or those subtle differences between M42-equipped 318's and M20-equipped 325s.  My car is currently running just fine, but I'm sure that eventually it's gonna start misbehaving, so especially appreciate all those fault codes.

You need the e36 Bentley or Chilton manual to have M42/M44 coverage. I’ll never understand why Bentley didn’t include complete coverage for the 91 318is.
