50i N63 Valve Stem seals DIY Timelapse Video
30min timelapse if someone interested...
DONE. Was planning it for a long time beforehand, and knew what to expect... Phew... it still took much longer and was much harder job than I imagined. I think I spent at least 40 hours in total. Doing slowly and carefully following ISTA instructions.. End result is great. Smooth running car and NO SMOKE. Last edited by TKR; 02-26-2018 at 11:35 PM.. |

Wow, simply incredible! Thanks for taking the time and effort to record this. I'm sure a lot of N63ers will find this video priceless. Btw, how many miles on your X?

99k miles now.
Actually the seals started slowly leaking already in 70k miles (2 years ago), but needed very long idle to notice it and I never saw smoke in normal daily driving unless after 95k it got worse. And... while doing this I found both valve cover gaskets were leaking as well. They were hard like rock and came out in small pieces. |
