you guys are awesome in explaining in detail, many videos i seen, but by far your videos are good, i am a mechanic but not too experienced with european, your videos have helped me very much, thanks
This is the video I needed to see! Watch you guys a lot before I take on the issues or maintenance on my 5 series with the N20. I had a slight winning sound for a few days prior to an event which shut the car down completely. Unfortunately, my battery died in the process of having it towed home and I’m not holding enough charge to get any codes on my autel scanner other than battery codes.
All cars manufacture have their own re-occurring issues. Subarus - rod knock, engine failure/glass transmission, Volkswagen - electrical issues, honda - axles, Audi- slow/eletrical issues., Toyota excess oil consumption, Nissan - belt failures and valves.
after watching a few videos 4k seems to be the average quote cost to replace the timing chain, though in your case that requires more work as it will need to have the engine completely removed in order to re-time the engine as the trans timing port is in the rear of the engine, doesnt require more time to do that job per say but does require one to lift the engine out of the car as oppossed to simply replacing the guides and oil chain guide as well with the top mount engine lift
I just had this issue, put an oscilloscope to see the difference between the two cams and they are not aligned, I calculated the offset being around 17 degrees discrepant, not sure how much is the limit but appears to be very consistent with a jumped chain. What else can I do to verify this?
For that high miles i rather not play the guessing game..get original part and replace the important stuff..its better to have piece of mind . I got myself a 328i GT 2014 at 70k miles..and im planning to do all the spark plug, gearbox filter, all fluid change and timing chain done ..
Hi guys, i have just taken the electric connection off the mass air flow meter and its full of oil on the connection. Have you come across this before. I cant see any other leaknwhen i takecthe maf out, pleasexhelp
@@andrei769 Supposedly according to the lead tech at my dealership he heard a bit of a whine, what gave it away was when i changed my oil the oil drain pan had a ton of little pieces in it (it looks like metal glitter) but in fact was pieces of the guide rails. Also grooving was visible from the oil fill cap hole.. I did an oil analysis with blackstone and it was clean, so it definitely was plastic particles in the oil.
I have the same code 130e20, got the cover off to check the tension on the timing chain, but its good and tight. Does that mean it didnt jump? What could be the problem?
@@jess5976 Yes I did. I've had to replace the camgears and also changed the timing chain. Was very expensive. Sold the car directly after the repairs because it also burned oil. Those engines are just nightmares
@@BIGM0NSTER no long story but it was actually my shifter. After a very long process of trouble shooting everything, we found that while trying to doing a dme factory reset it would stop and give an error for the shifter. Replaced the shifter and it started right up. However about 5k later my timing chain did jump
Hi i have a 2012 X1 n20 and it cranks but don’t start it was running fine but suddenly started acting up like no throttle no power and died Can you please help.
Omg. why is bmw so money hungry they made their engine so unreliable . I was almost going to purchase the F30 but after watching this video errrrr No Way. A Big Money Pit automobile company .
Specifically 2013? I’m literally about to buy one tomorrow with 87k miles on it. Dealer man said it was family owned since 16k and well maintained (all service records for proof) but timing chain was not included. Is he selling me a lemon?
BMW I thought german giants made the best engines but no their just made to kill of any savings you have they say design fault I say show me your money fault

Thank you guys i really appreciate it guys until next time guys
you guys are awesome in explaining in detail, many videos i seen, but by far your videos are good, i am a mechanic but not too experienced with european, your videos have helped me very much, thanks
How many times can you say GUYS in a video, Holly cow 😂
what else did you expect from the car repair guys
This is the video I needed to see! Watch you guys a lot before I take on the issues or maintenance on my 5 series with the N20.

PLEASEE UPDATE ON HOW YOU GOT IT FIRED UP
I have a 2012 328i with 120k miles but no problem yet should I be concerned 😦
I have the same car. Did you have any problem?
Dis you have any problems ???@@NahuelFretteRealtor
I have the same car with 170k kilometres and it's running fine until now
Drinking game: Anytime you hear the word "guys", you take a drink. If you are still standing after 7:33 minutes, you win!
By 42 seconds he said it 10 times... I’d pay to see someone play that game.
Did u read the last word of the channel’s name
Hi I was diagnosed with a jumped timing chain, how can i tell i do not have Engine damage, ie., pistons and rods
compression check/noise/poor run condition
Did you ever have engine damage and how did you check Sheldon?
Where are you located , I need my timing chain fixed on my N20
does this 130 Code appear even with no CEL? thanks
Instructiva forma de detectar una cadena de distribución pronta a fallar. Lo más conveniente es un cambio preventivo de la cadena a los 100.000 km
This sounds like planned obsolescence by BMW to force most into upgrading or trade-in if they don't accidentally frag engine first
All cars manufacture have their own re-occurring issues. Subarus - rod knock, engine failure/glass transmission, Volkswagen - electrical issues, honda - axles, Audi- slow/eletrical issues., Toyota excess oil consumption, Nissan - belt failures and valves.
Timing belt failed on my Camry many times then it finally blew. Toyotas leak a lot of oil
did this car run at all with jumped timing?
Going through this right now on my 2011 535i. My mechanic said it jumped timing 4 degrees and has a stretched timing chain. Quoted $3500-$4000
after watching a few videos 4k seems to be the average quote cost to replace the timing chain, though in your case that requires more work as it will need to have the engine completely removed in order to re-time the engine as the trans timing port is in the rear of the engine, doesnt require more time to do that job per say but does require one to lift the engine out of the car as oppossed to simply replacing the guides and oil chain guide as well with the top mount engine lift
To much "GUY'S".....🤯
What brand of timing chain guides should we buy? OEM is going to brake again. Who is using better plastics? My 528i jumped :(
How many miles did it have when it jumped
How many miles till it jumped ?
where can i get the piston rings for 2013 bmw 328i n20 motor
How much engine oil for this bmw?
Thanks just got one and it has the sound what should I do
Can you please tell me if I can change the chain tensioner the outside one and do don’t open the enigma for 318i 1.5 ? ,
How much is to change the timing chain lead?
Can piece of the guide end up in the motor and or on the bottom of the oil pan? If broken
My n47 stopped while driving , no camshaft errors related , only dpf full related , but the engine looks like is stuck
I just had this issue, put an oscilloscope to see the difference between the two cams and they are not aligned, I calculated the offset being around 17 degrees discrepant, not sure how much is the limit but appears to be very consistent with a jumped chain. What else can I do to verify this?
Awesome. How do you use an oscilloscope to do this? what input do you give it?
can you get a timing problem without getting a code?
I bought a BMW with 150K miles, can i assume the chain has been replaced?
For that high miles i rather not play the guessing game..get original part and replace the important stuff..its better to have piece of mind .
I got myself a 328i GT 2014 at 70k miles..and im planning to do all the spark plug, gearbox filter, all fluid change and timing chain done ..
I am using inpa and get a vanos code 0x130304 is that just software or hardware. Chain was replaced
Hi guys, i have just taken the electric connection off the mass air flow meter and its full of oil on the connection. Have you come across this before. I cant see any other leaknwhen i takecthe maf out, pleasexhelp
Currently got a f01 7 series with 320k miles and no issues
740?
@@Kyronsk8 730d but has a 740d badge on the back. It's grey with cream inside
Where is 👀 rikkey boobey 😭💀
The issue was the tensioner, BMW updated the chain tensioner in 09/16, the latest revision. My production date 06/15 n20 had chain failure.
Did it show any symptoms before failure? Mine is 09/15 with 100k km.

Mine just don't start anymore :( Is it my engine toast ? or is BMW software protecting the engine to start ?
@@albertorom7527 update on your issue ?
@@albertorom7527 did you ever figure out what was going on with your car alberto and what did you do to fix it ?
It's twin scroll, not twin turbo. Only has 1 turbocharger.
I have the same code 130e20, got the cover off to check the tension on the timing chain, but its good and tight. Does that mean it didnt jump? What could be the problem?
Did you find out?
@@jess5976
Yes I did. I've had to replace the camgears and also changed the timing chain. Was very expensive. Sold the car directly after the repairs because it also burned oil. Those engines are just nightmares
Take a shot every time he says “guys” 🥴
Liver's crying, thanks.
ok so my car wont start I dont have any codes what so ever and sounds like the starter is spinning too fast? Could this be a timing chain as well.
Was it the timing chain Matt?
@@BIGM0NSTER no long story but it was actually my shifter. After a very long process of trouble shooting everything, we found that while trying to doing a dme factory reset it would stop and give an error for the shifter.
Replaced the shifter and it started right up.
However about 5k later my timing chain did jump
@@blkhwkcc so how did you know that it jumped and what were the symptoms of it jumping? Also did you end up fixing it?
Have you any info on fault code 429300 my car won't start even though I have had both fuel pumps replaced and checked injectors!
Did you ever figure out the problem Darren?
I love your accent - is it Russian?
I had same codes and whining sound
Guys
Very useful video though 👍
New drinking game. Take a shot every time he says guys. You won’t make it through the video 😅
Stop saying guys it's super annoying. Love your content though
