NEVER buy a used BMW with more than 70, 000 miles (110, 000 km) on the clock that hasn't had its timing chain replaced. Always demand to see proof if the seller says it has.

[MehrLovin]

This is crazy to do at 75k and an incredible amount of work.

[warrennewberry]

I had to replace my entire engine on mu f10 after my timing chain blew. The technician said the screws had become so lose they fell off and ruined it

[jamaljackson]

Yeah, I can see this is one of those jobs I would never attempt to do myself because of all the special equipment that is needed and because it is just a little bit beyond my level of ability and expertise. I guess sadly, I'm going to have to pay for this one.

[masonriley]

Once u do the chain. Start saving money for the next one once u you reach another 50k to 75k miles

I need to replace the camshaft sprockets, facing over $3000 with parts and labor? Any ideas on what you would do in my shoes??

[bryceleung]

Amazing shop guys. Love your videos too. Please link us to your shop!

Toyota's engines have a drive chain that doesn't need to be changed. Regular maintenance is the key of a life time duration of chain.

[jrodify]

So how much to replace with parts and labor ??? If taken to a shoo

[frankpaul]

This is just very poor quality parts from BMW. It shouldn’t have failed at 70k.

[ottomanatrix]

These things are wear and tear also depends how the engine gets treated by the owner cars now days have decent torque on them especially more powerful cars imagen all that power on that chain it does a big job the achilles

[colinpadley]

I took my car to a specialist as it wouldn't start, the saud it was the Crank sensor, after having that changed it still won't start, now they're saying it's the timing chain qnd it's 11 hours labour, is this excessive? Not sure of the engine name but it's a 2008 e92 coupe 2 litre

[Pixl_Qust_slay]

My bmw 170000km 520d and never had the timing belt changed, i bought it with 50000km, should i be concerned

[arnoldgengfitness]

so once chain is replaced we are fine wont need change again?

[familyoviedo]

Im sure a big factor is they run really fckn hot, hence damaging the plastic parts

[truth.hurts...]

Well you have to change chain and water pump on 60k
