Hi, I have 2015 520d, which I have had for three years and taken from 70k miles to 140k miles and I haven’t changed the Timing Chain. It has a full BMW service history to this point though the next service will be with a good independent.

My understanding is that the timing chains are lifetime, is this correct and what’s the consensus on changing them?

The cars in great condition and I would like to keep using and add miles at the same rate for at least a couple more years so keen to do all necessary to maintain its lifetime.

      28 thermal sensor for oil level defect

      Hello all. I have a failure code 28 on my 735 1996 E38 and I am not sure what to replace. The car does not have a thermal sensor on the oil filter like the newer models have, there is no fault on the dash, no low level warrning, and the engine runs without any issues. Does enyone know what the code 28 is related to on the 12/1997 E38? Many thanks

      My new E64 650i

      Hi all, I’ve recently purchased this lovely 650i. It’s a 2010 car finished in Aruzite black with full platinum merino and black nappa leather. 48k miles and still under extended BMW warranty. Coolant changes no more than 2 years and oil changes most years. 100% standard other than a Quaife ATB LSD and a Mr12Volt CarPlay & Android Auto unit with reverse camera. The previous owner also retrofitted soft-close doors and Individual Audio at great expense using all genuine parts. Lastly, the previous owner spent >£7k on full PPF and ceramic coating for the interior and exterior including wheels! Could this be the best non-M E64 in the UK? I’m sure others with E64’s won’t agree 😂 Either way, I’m very happy with it, what do you think?
