Another recent full engine rebuild.
Heat siezed BMW E70 N57 4D was towed in, not often these bullet proof engines give issues, however this one ran low on oil and no water on a highway trip from Bloemfontein.
This is also a matter of dropping engine, gearbox and subframe from vehicle, in this case the engine was so badly siezed that we had to strip the whole engine down till only the crank was left connected to the gearbox before we could seperate it from the gearbox.
Full strip down and rebuilt with new crank, rods, pistons, bearings , oil pump, water pump ect ect. Line bored, sleeved and started up first time and back to customer in Bloem

In between the normal daily services, repairs and diagnostics on BMWs we also rebuild engines as needed.

BMW F15 X5 5.0 N63 engine recently came in with a bad misfire. Normal diagnostics and fault finding narrowed it to Cyl 4. A compression test , wet and dry revealed no compression. Using our boroscope we discovered bad scoring on the bore and damage to the piston.
Further strip down to block and a broken piston was found. Client was offered the option of replacing damaged piston only, upgrading all piston to Forged pistons or replacment engine.
Client opted for piston replacment with new sleeve, this entailed strip down to bare block for engineering to do their work and then us to re-assemble the entire engine. This work requires the engine, gearbox to be assembled onto the completely removed suspension and subframe and then re-fitting the whole unit back onto the body.

We blessed to be busy.
