E83 3.0d Msport

Post by Evokid007 » Thu May 31, 2018 1:54 pm

Hi just joined this forum, owned my X3 for a year now but has been off the road for 10 months due to my Timing chain snapping at 100k!! Wasn’t happy, but fixed by myself now and back to glory.

Hello and :hi:.

Well done for tackling that job yourself.  Not one for the faint hearted.

Thanks both, yes was a laborious job! Actually only took 1-2 weeks in total manhours but could only fit the work in between rain, Work and Kids!  8)  Have to say love the Power and driving the X.
