Keep it up Kyu. Overdose on vitamin "C" oranges and bananas and keep hydrated. If you have cravings for food just eat fruit and keep away from fatty foods. Don't give up your normal meals though

M62TU (540i) Timing Chain and Vanos preventive Maintenance in Auckland
B.M.W Ltd replied to dkonsta1's topic in Maintenance
I was being serious. And a little can be dangerous, however if researched by someone with a mechanical aptitude the result can be achieved with the right tools, the right parts and patience. The cost of paying someone to do this can be horrendous and can be more than what some of these vehicles are worth when you add up all the other problems the car might have . I proved this today doing a PPI after the fact a member purchased a vehicle and I'm doing another PPI tomorrow which I'm hoping will be much better for the punter. -
Long drips have often been terminal... try Google

I have a brand new foot brake damper $50 incl Gst if you want it
-
I'd pressure test it first to determine the exact position of the leak before stripping though. Half the job is diagnosing the actual fault first.

The manifold needs to come off and the valley plate seal is a part of the plate. It's a bit involved to do and other parts may need replacing at the same time ie: water pump, pipes seals, thermostat, manifold gaskets, injector seals, PCV valve while your in there

It'll be the pipes or the valley plate. Also check the hoses going up to the throttle body

Even those willing to do the job are quoting $4,000 - $5,000 + why would you spend over half the value of a car and then a couple of weeks or months after the transmission shits it,s self. Buy some parts, Google, buy some tools and give it a go. You can always buy another car if you f**k it up -

What has been the outcome of your visit today ?
-
I would suggest getting someone with the right diagnostic gear & experience to check you car and get on with your life. All of this up there ^^^^ for a probable very simple diagnosis and repair now complicated by your attempt to diagnose and correct it. Clearing adaptions on fly by wire systems need reinitialising throttle values

A 2 post hoist lifts by the body (suspension not loaded) a 4 post hoist lifts the car by the wheels with the suspension loaded
-
Was it checked on a 2 post or 4 post hoist ? The steering should be loaded to check where the play is coming from. Where are you located ? South of what ?
-
Two people working together should be able to locate this problem very quickly

You have been to my workshop several times over the years with your previous BMW's CJ

E90 4 cylinder models (N46) are exempt from these types of problems with there inbuilt oil and inhibitor recycling systems which does prevent rust, makes a mess and causes heart breaking tension on peoples wallets. -
Have you made a doctors appointment for tomorrow ??

My daughter just got her PPL a couple of months ago. She's now getting a rating in a 4 seater and then she's onto what you see in the video. She's already been getting some instruction and some flight time with others
