    Scott, if you're reading this, all I can say is what a huge heart you have to do something as genuine and with no grandstanding. You're a prime example for the rest of us to help each other out.....no matter how big and especially how small the help is. You give me faith that there is still honest and caring people left in this world. I hope this action inspires us to help each other out by donating money of course but also of our own time. Theres many a good cause such as St. Judes Children's hospital, or a local orphanage, helping in a prison, or just plain holding an elevator or door for somebody behind you. May good karma come to you and those around you. Your parents should be very proud of the son they raised!

    @williamscott6847 4 года назад

    Hey Sam,
    I’ve had 3 of these N54 335i’s and most of them have the same issues. The valve cover always cracks in the same spot (weak point on the cover and these engines run hot), could also be caused by previous mechanic prying out an injector with the value cover. A leaking valve cover will cause the cylinders to pool with oil and give you a rough idol. You should also check you PCV valve to see if it’s clogged or not venting correctly. Also recommend you check to see if your fuel injectors are index 12 (the most reliable ones) as anything below 12 will most likely fail also giving you a rough idle. If you have some oil on your coolant check your oil filter housing gasket as they always fail. I’d also check your engine mounts as when they drop your fan belt will rub on the frame and eventually snap. High pressure fuel pump is also very common on these so good to check if yours is the revised updated one. Probably a good time to put in some Catless downpipes and an aluminium charge pipe. Lastly do a quick tune and you’ll be pushing 600bhp in no time! Best of luck with this one! Such a ripper of a car!

    Here is a good tip from me. I have myself a E92 335i, and if you put straight downpipes and add a MHD stage 2+ tune, your car can even run better and more economical. The turbo boost from factory runs pretty low PSI about 8psi, but the MHD tune bumps it up to 14psi, which is not even too much of a stress. So in the end, you will have a better running, more economical, more powerful car :)
