BMW N47 Timing Chain Replacement
The BMW N47, the 4 cylinder diesel engine found commonly in the BMW 1 series and 3 series. This engine is notorious for its timing chain problems, as is common with a lot of BMW N engines.
This problem is commonly left unaddressed, more so than to its petrol cousins. This diesel engine has its timing chain on the back of the engine, leaving it hard to access and hidden behind the gearbox. This means that the cost of replacing diesel timing chains is more expensive than petrol timing chains as the gearbox has to be separated from the engine block.

A common symptom of timing chain slack is a rattling sound from the back of your engine. You might also experience rough running or an engine light.
Snapped timing chains are common on these cars, the slack from the chain becoming so much that the chain breaks altogether. This commonly bends valves and leaves your engine at least in need of a partial rebuild.
Here at Element Performance, we not only specialise in N47 timing chain replacement services but in the unfortunate event that your engine has snapped a timing chain or suffering from oil starvation, we can offer cost effective rebuild services.
