BMW Timing Chain Replacement Service
The N47 engine family is prone to excessive timing chain wear and premature failure. A rattling noise from the rear of the engine is an indication of the condition. Timing chain failure may call for a engine replacement or a costly repair.
If your timing chain has started to rattle please act ASAP! Failure to have the timing chain replaced will end with the timing chain snapping and can cause serious damage!
At times the failure can result in a dangerous cut out of the engine while the vehicle is being driven - at any speed!
The N47 engine is used in BMW four cylinder diesel engines from 2007 up to 2017 and all BMW MINI diesel engines from 2010.
The N47 is also used in various Toyotas and also suffer the same premature failure.
The BMW N57 6 cylinder engines from 2008 to 2016 also suffer with the same premature timing chain failure.

Failed timing chains start from £1400.
