  • I really am a glutton for punishment!
    I havent even got the E90 330i running and this E87 118d came up (thanks for the heads up ‪@adetailedview9236‬), I just couldnt resist even though it may end up costing me what its worth!
    Yes, its an N47, and along with that engine comes a few common issues.... timing chains, oil pumps and broken crank shafts..... which one is it?

    I've just come from the Late Brake show Primera video. Interested to see what else you've got going on

    Neil - just watched you on the Late Brake Show with your Nissan. Neil Turner - I remember that name from when I owned (with my wife) 7 MG Maestro turbos (not all at once) and an MGF. We had two T16 Maestro turbos which had been built by Roger Parker - his green one and a white one. They were great cars back in the day and are now fetching good money. Great to see you on RUclips. I'm now into electric cars and drive a Tesla Model Y. They are much more reliable and cheaper to run than internal combustion engined vehicles. They are also insanely fast.

      Hi Martin, nice you hear from you. I sometimes wondered what you and Jackie are up to these days. I had heard you were into EVs.
      I sold my last Montego a couple of years ago, it was a LHD one I imported from Netherlands in 2016.
      I tend to stick to less rusty cars these days (Primera excluded), and do enjoy a fast diesel.

    Lol those tyre tracks were from me a few weeks ago! The van got totally stuck there and made a right mess trying to get it out 😂

    My prediction - it’s had a timing chain kit done but with cheap BGA/FAI stuff, the black resin plastic within the chain guides has disintegrated (really common on non genuine guides) and gone in to the sump blocking the oil pickup and starved the engine of oil 👍🏼

      Yes that was one of my thoughts too. Shame as it’s had some decent money spent on it.

    Good old XDrive and a bit of diesel torque 💪🏼

      I was pleasantly surprised how well it did. Shame the camera stopped recording when I backed it in as it was slipping all over the place.

      I’ll be doing a follow up video on it in the near future. Really need to move the 118d and get that sorted so I have space and funds to start the GT.
