BMW 1 Series Coupe came into us a few days ago for investigation with suspected major problems.

First checks and the oil filter is telling quite a story… 👀

Plenty of metallic debris showing in the filter, so unfortunately it’s looking like our suspicions may have been right.

For any quotes please contact us any time!

We recently had this BMW X1 in with us for a full timing chain replacement - Carried out by Cam!

Engine out for this one to get the job done properly. Full timing chain kit being replaced, timing set correctly and everything checked over before the engine goes back in - including a new rocker cover, and Oil Change!

BMW timing chains are something we do week in, week out, so if yours is starting to rattle or you’re unsure whether it’s been done, get in touch anytime we are happy to help!
