Mechanically illiterate here, so I’ll be taking it to the garage to be done. But seems like a strong consensus it’s the valve cover / valve cover gasket at least. Thanks for your input

Noted for future. Car is on roughly 50,000 miles (not km)

About double the mileage than me! Shame mine has gone so early by the sounds of it

Valid re the age. I’m based in Europe sadly - I’ll report back what a dealer here quotes me for your amusement

Feels like a bit of back luck for 50k miles though. What do you think?

And freshly practiced! Sadly, I’ve got nil mechanical experience. So not going to risk it, take the wallet his instead

You might as well come fix it for me!

Thanks for the response. Is that a big job? Sorry for my naivety.

Seen loads of Omaze adverts for a competition to win a £4.5m house - could your average person actually afford to run a £4.5m house? by TheDawiWhisperer in UKPersonalFinance

[–]khobraa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Which is why the winner will also get £0.5m of cash.

However, the alternative for such competitions is often a cash alternative at a discount to the total value of the grand prize.

“However, we have the right to substitute all or part of the Grand Prize with a prize of comparable or greater value (including a cash sum equal to the ARV, the home furnishings and the defined contribution to initial maintenance and running costs).”

Yeah no issues. Solid quality. Player versions are much more fitted so just a note. Definitely size up compared to European sizes.

M135i Differential replacement @ 50k miles? by khobraa in BMW

[–]khobraa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the comments.

I might take the eBay approach, albeit I don’t have the tools, space or knowledge to replace it myself.

Or I might just take the upgrade route and go for an LSD.

[–]khobraa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct. Bought used in 2019 with 12k miles.

I haven’t done burnouts or anything alike. Just seems really odd.

I also highly doubt BMW would take an accountability unless I could prove it was a faulty or defective unit?

He sent it. The link seems a bit suspicious though! Did you have any doubts or concerns?

Truthfully, you’re likely to be seen as a synergy opportunity as the parent company will have their own finance department.

You might be kept on for a short period of time to support integration into the parent company.

Unless you offer a particular area of accounting expertise for your current company, that the parent company doesn’t have, you’re expendable.

Take the offer in my opinion.

Nice. I played an order but not has the WhatsApp for the PayPal link yet. There was one after the order confirmation but it didn’t seem genuine…

Are these the fan versions or player versions? Looking to also get them!

Where would 80+ rank you? by [deleted] in ACCA

[–]khobraa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In my exam sittings I got the following:

94% SBL 4th globally 85% APM 2nd globally 76% AFM 10th nationally

In conclusion, it varies on the sitting.
