A good chain against one about to go, on a scope instead of by ear. Half of them come in booked as a diesel injector tick.
Looking at an N47, start it stone cold and stand at the back of the engine. The chain sits against the bulkhead, which is exactly why it costs what it costs.
New here, Calgary. The E46 goes into storage in three weeks and I am already annoyed about it. Four good months a year and eight of salt. How long is your driving season?
BMW 3 Series I love this thing. I really want to do a crazy custom build like this. I think it has a stock engine. I think they should pull it and put in a Barra.

Vic plates on an E90 parked up on the lawn like it belongs there. Not my usual thing, I am a Commodore bloke. But a facelift 3 Series in silver has aged better than most of what was sitting next to it in 2010.

Recalls for the BMW 3 Series TCM/PCM/TECM - Transmission oil that leaks into the control unit can lead to a seizure of the transmission gears, causing a sudden loss of drive... Dealers will replace the transmission mechatronics module and the automatic transmission fluid, as necessary,... Check your VIN against the official notice before acting on this. TCM/PCM/TECM - 23V821000 - https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=23V821000 #recalls
