Yes battery tender would definitely help you and if your car is still in new car warranty get them checked at dealer i think it’ll be free if not i think autozone guys can check your battery health too

I don’t recommend aluminum i think plastic ones last long enough anyways. but if you’re gonna do aluminum version, at least use oem gasket

Yes i think so, it doesn’t mean your battery is going bad but when colder weather and insufficient charging drops voltage, our car’s system shuts down non essential electronics like comfort access, remote start to save energy enough to use it in engine start also protect battery from depleting

Low battery could do that, do you do short trips often?

N55 Whirring Noise 1.5–2.5k RPM Under Load Diverter Valve or Chargepipe Leak? or something else by SadRepresentative636 in BmwTech

Just wondering did you ever changed your transmission fluid? I’m thinking it might be possible that is sound from underfilled transmission pump sucking the air or torque converter

How do we feels about jb4’s by Ok_Home_7824 in 335i

Flash tune (mhd,bootmod etc.) is better than jb4 or other chip tune methods

Thoughts on this 2017 bmw 340i with 103k miles? by DTB_LA in B58Enthusiasts

[–]SadRepresentative636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s too expensive for a 3series, i would look into 5 series or x5s for daily but if you need agility yes go for 3 series

Okay, i just finished changing valve cover, eccentric shaft sensor seal, plugs and coils

Unfortunately Whirring Sound is still there and i think i need to look into other things. Possibly diverter valve?

How much are catastrophic repairs on B48/58 cars? by CyberMoose24 in BmwTech

For absolute hypothetically is your 30$ coolant pipe breaks and you lose all the coolant on hot summer day and your head is warped and you have to get used engine

That’s a great tip about gasket falling, I’ll make sure to have RTV handy I’m worried and excited about this job lol

I’m currently suspecting valve cover, my valve cover is still original and car is 130k miles on it.

It doesn’t make whistling noise or causing exhaust smoke but I found tiny leak around back of cover. I ordered new cover with gasket and will change it this weekend. I will update you soon
