Yes. I will only buy OEM from FCPEuro. (BMW is OE, as I recall Lemforder is the OEM for that part.) FCP should list who is the OEM, and they use the proper nomenclature for OEM vs OE There are some real junk indian/3rd world parts, that *fit* but I dont trust them to last. |

Hi. I bought the ATP where do I put it. In the gasoline tank or where I put the motor oil? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

you DO realize that only ONE person recommended this.
It is a hack, most decent mechanics and purists would not consider this |

As Ard stated, suspension wise, go with whatever OEM is. FCP is good about giving that info. It will be the same thing the truck came with, and will still be substantially cheaper than OE. I've never used the AT205 but have heard of others using it with varying levels of success. Anything short of fixing the actual problem is a band aid. Personally, I use Lucas oil additive and heavier oil to alleviate the smoking until I have the time to dig into the N62 and replace all the common failure points (VSS, crossover pipe, timing cover gaskets, motor mounts, alternator mount gasket, etc). But again, this too is a band aid and not a solution.

Will do
So right now I think the smoke is less than before, when reversing I used to see a lot of smoke come out, as of today, 3 days later, I do see smoke when reversing but not as much as before. I will report back later on as well maybe in a month or so. Thank You all
