I would love to tell them that. My problem is intermittent at the moment.
My question is...
Even if I do these repairs, I have 191000 miles on the car. the interior is immaculate and the outside is in great shape as well. I have also had the eccentric shaft done under warranty on this one.
At what point does it make more sense to get a used engine from BMRparts?
My indy shop seems a little scared to tackle the timing chain.
I could get one from BMRparts and it would have 60-70,000 miles on it. They also offer a lifetime engine warranty for 35% of the cost of the engine.
The cost of the engine and installation at the dealer is about $6,000
any advice for this frustrated BMW owner who did everything by the book and is now faced with this?
