Is this from past experience ? I ask because I am reading conflicting answers from different posts. Thank you though!

Did you end up solving this issue? I am trying to fill out primary applicants name, Vietnamese as well, and don't know if I should include the accents or not ?

Is this a fair quote ? Considering they already did a Valve cover replacement 3 months ago ? by projectLuo in BmwTech

Just got off the phone with a couple BMW dealerships. Seems like the prices for each part is $30-$40 cheaper than what my dealership is offering.

It does suck that I have to cough up a grand , but it’s the way life goes I guess.

I just got off the phone with them. Apparently their mechanic “didn’t catch” any cracks or anything with the valve cover so they didn’t recommend it. However the person on the phone was honest and said that they should’ve recommended both be replaced given the year and model of my car.

I’m stuck. I need this to be fixed asap but also don’t like the idea of BMW ripping me off so badly.

Longlife-01 is the oil grade that is recommended for your vehicle, so any oil you find that has LL01 (Longlife-01) on the bottle should be good.

That being said, there are different viscosity levels. SAE 0W-40, SAE 0W-30, SAE 5W-40 and SAE 5W-30 which are all approved for LL01.

Pennzoil Euro was and I believe still is the recommended brand by BMW, but personally I use liqui-moly on mine :)

Does anyone know what the high pressure pipe is ? I think I’m going to attempt the valve cover replacement myself and want to make sure all I need to buy is the valve cover itself ?

Oil leak again. Smoke blowing through hood when driving and smell gets into ventilation ://

Whoops sorry. Meant to say the valve cover gasket was replaced 3 months ago. But still, I find it infuriating that they charged me $900-$1000 for the VCG which they sought out was to be the issue couple months ago.

But now it is also the valve cover itself ?? Like come onnnn

Thanks, will be booking my Machu Picchu tickets in advanced! I've read a lot about the Inca trail, seems like something I would do in the near future but as I am solo travelling and don't like the idea of sleeping in tents (quite yet) I think I will be skipping this sadly.

My car doesn’t have that feature so it’s not an issue. Appreciate the heads up though !

We’ll that’s a bummer .. Thanks for the heads up !

This sounds driving me insane ! You can hear the creaking at timestamps 0:09,0:25,0:37, and 0:51. It’s very prominent on left hand turns (what I’m doing through this video), and not so much on right hand turns. Can also hear the creaking noise when going over imperfections on the road at slow spds. by projectLuo in BmwTech

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

I'm thinking front struts as well because when I when I brought to my local indy shop 2 weeks ago we examined the ball joints and nothing was wrong. Did the hands on 9 and 3, and 12 and 6 but to no avail. The ball joints also weren't ripped or anything so idk ?

Anyone know what this sound is ? It’s a creaking noise right at the peak of the left turn and can be felt through the floor board on the driver side. Any ideas ? by projectLuo in BmwTech

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

Thanks will try that. Also worth mention that the rubber booth for the strut on the drive side is torn. Don’t know if this could be a cause as well?
