2011 Owners: Check Those VANOS Bolts!
Our N52 engine clatters quite a bit on start up, and it falls into the bad bolt time frame, so I was a little worried. I got a phone-based borescope from Bezos' and took a look. And I guess I dodged that one, as I have the black bolts!
More info on the problem if you don't know about it: https://www.1addicts.com/forums/show....php?t=1422717 https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/201...4V176-2716.pdf From what I understand all the 2011 F10s could potentially be affected by it and have the bad bolts. Happy to spend a few $$$ for the peace of mind! |
