Yeah I solved that problem by not adopting any more BMWs ? @Arata get this thing compression checked. The symptoms are not convincing for HG failure. Also listen to B.M.W LTD, he's a grumpy old bastard ? but that's because he's been fixing these things since forever. -
John, as we discussed, there are videos out there showing imperically that helicoils work far better than timeserts, are cheaper and easier to install. Have a watch of the half hour video I posted in another thread (yeah sorry, it's not a 5 minute job but the guy does a good job explaining what he's doing and why), helicoils FTW every time. Given you now know my history, I have always used, and will always use, helicoils and this video shows why. I've never, ever had a helicoil fail, pull out, or be hard to install. Do some research into the two, helicoils will give you rated pull out strengths etc. etc. Timeserts just tell you "well they should be strong enough" - they don't actually give out any figures that they will stand by. Also, note in the linked thread, Glenn @B.M.W Ltd states very clearly "Just a heads up...if you don't insert them accurately the block will be ruined. The head bolts will pull them out. Most motor re conditioners have their own special set ups to do these accurately and even they can get it wrong... ask me how I know", just another precaution....... As I discussed with you on Wednesday night, do a lot of research before doing anything like this, everyone has opinions based on their experience, some advice given is great, some just needs to be taken with a grain of salt as that person's experience. Either way, helicoil or timesert, there is a chance the block can be damaged. Again though, this is just my opinion, and, like Glenn, more than happy to give you a call whenever suits you to discuss before you decide which way to go.

@B.M.W Ltd In your opinion, do you think something like timecerts or helicoils would be good options for a performance engine build, even if the block tested fine?

I cleaned and tested all the injectors when I replaced the orings, and also used a bottle of injector cleaner in the tank. There are no exhaust leaks. @B.M.W Ltd - do you have any advice on what it could be?

@B.M.W LtdApparently the OBD2 scanner can reset lots of service/maintenance including TPMS - think I'll just ask the seller the question. Hate the idea of buying and asking for refunds if it does not work I'm in the Franklin area btw.... and thanks for the reply.....

If you don't want to change the fluid and take the cover off then Glenn (B.M.W. Ltd)'s method above is spot on, not too hard a way to check your ratio and pretty reliable. Might not tell you if it's definately an LSD as wheels will turn together for an open case diff in the same way if there is nothing binding in the diff or axles, but will definately give you an accurate measure of your ratio. Tags on diffs often get changed or lost, so it's not always 100% that the tag reflects whats inside the diff housing. Seen some sneaky ones where "S" tags have been put on open case LSDs to sell them, never the other way around though.

@B.M.W Ltdare you looking to sell the 1/43 M3 GT-R? I could be interested if you PM a price. If not - nice model, looks much better quality than the one I already have.

@B.M.W Ltd no worries, my first pictures were poor and totally different angles ? -
Glenn @B.M.W Ltd, does the 3 series Haynes manual for e36 cover the M42? If so, I'll take it please.
