Like other have said, people with M cars are eager to change their oil more frequently and not let it go to 20k miles to take advantage of bmw recommendation free oil chcange. N63 and S63 shares the same timing chain part number.
You have to set the chain tension pretension with the special tool. That’s another thing im sick of when fixing these bmw. Everything needs a special tool lol. Some you can improvise others not so much.
Yes. It was an up movement. And it moved up slightly. Only on the drivers side bank..

Passenger bank was tight. They are probably fine. I hear zero rattle on cold start. And the engine sounds very healthy.
