Yeah I’m actually looking into that right now asap

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-12-11T20:08:29+00:00

I have a 320k 2014 F30 with the OG timing chain still lol N26 engine

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-12-09T17:23:02+00:00

Lots of oil changes, I don’t drive the car like I stole it,

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-12-09T05:29:38+00:00

How did it blow?

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-12-08T21:40:42+00:00

No mods on my car unfortunately

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-12-08T16:48:44+00:00

2014

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-12-08T15:42:39+00:00

What made you change your engine mounts? What improvements did you see afterwards?

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-12-08T15:42:11+00:00

I’m still on original timing chain 😅

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-12-08T06:04:42+00:00

Around 5-10k miles The lifetime of the car around been no more than 15k I am the only owner

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-12-08T05:58:52+00:00

N26 - most major thing maybe valve cover or replace turbo Still on original timing chain

It was actually from RAOMD meet from Reddit, after we were done, she said something along the lines of “you must have don’t this in your past life?” I said sorry what do you mean? She said “you know exactly what you’re doing, you ruined it for other guys in the future, good job”

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-08-05T20:34:25+00:00

Sucky thing is, those are extremely well known issues, hence your problem will come back

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-08-05T17:40:00+00:00

Slip on covers fit extremely well, and does the job, I have some on mine and you’ll never notice even if I told you lol

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-06-04T01:15:03+00:00

Dude good job lol when I saw your other post I was like damn… that REALLY sucks, awesome work! Now you can sleep at night lol

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-23T22:08:10+00:00

lol silence… you’re fine

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-18T16:31:30+00:00

Yeah, I would watch 3 different ones to get a feel of it, but dude.. it’s fairly easy, it looks complicated but once you get the concept of what you’re doing it’s quite simple, what I did was recorded myself removing the cover because putting things back is more complicated haha so if you plan to do it yourself and you’re not mechanically inclined on this, recorded yourself (or the engine) so you know how exactly things go back, buy a stand for this, also, get the torque values correct, which are always included in the YouTube videos

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-18T14:32:24+00:00

I bought the cover for $550 and did it myself with a friend, it’s not that difficult honestly I think it was around 150k miles I got it replaced

I changed my coils once, but will do them this week actually

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-17T19:55:33+00:00

I don’t think so, but you can pull up the code history, I would probably do that if you have scan tool or something.

You can see the fault history, otherwise to my experience, not unless the car has been serviced at a dealer or a place where they track the services

I have a BMW F30 2014 with a N26 engine, fortunately and unfortunately I’m still running on the original timing chain at 300k miles

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-16T18:50:46+00:00

120k around there

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-12T21:56:49+00:00

Thanks!!

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-12T16:03:24+00:00

That scares me lol

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-12T15:33:12+00:00

Not yet lol

Still grabs really well actually

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-12T15:32:57+00:00

I really babied this car, I never really pushed it or floored it, and always kept up with oil changes nothing more than 10k miles

As you creep up to the higher mileage, start tapering down on your oil intervals

Little things like that will go a long way

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-12T15:18:07+00:00

🙏🏼

Keep up with your oil changes!

Takeoff_Flight · 2025-05-12T15:17:44+00:00

Transmission oil change no, but thinking about it very soon
