E30kid 19 Report post Posted July 15 Hi all, Have a parts motor from a 2007 130i at 130kms. Has a snapped retainer for the valvetronic eccentric shaft, snapped above an oil gallery so head is likely toast unless you can weld alloy well. Motor was a mint runner until a job went awry, so everything works, is currently sitting on the subframe so everything is attached aside from a transmission. Will likely keep a couple of pulleys as pretty sure the replacement motor needs one, however just ask whatever your after and I'll advise. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Driftit 2091 Report post Posted July 16 Oh that's rough. It must have been fatigued already. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
