This is a tough one. How does the car drive with the new VVT? How many miles are on the car? |
I haven't driven it yet myself. But according to my wife, there was a bit of hesitation.
94 k miles.
The clunk was very substantial and loud yesterday.
No clunk this morning. I might start parking the car with front-in, instead of rear-in.
If things improve by parking rear side inclined, then this is a not the camshaft issue. I will try getting a diagnosis from a BMW indy shop.
My last solution will be to rid myself of it. Costs once, but man, I cannot afford working on it!
