x6m s63 engine failure

i havent done much yet. had a friend look at it and so far said there was a bunch of oil leaks here and there but mostly that cylinder 3 has no compression.

i have experience in rebuilding honda engines and i have a relative that is a honda master tech and has rebuilt hundreds of engines. obviously a BMW engine is a different animal. the one shop said the VANOS timing will be a problem.

i figured the best plan of attack is to tow it to my relatives shop and drop the oil pan and take off the valve covers to see the status of the timing chain, cams, and oil pump.

any advice would be greatly appreciated on this 2010 bmw x6m s63 engine.
