Great video! Helped me diagnose my bad valve seals. Thank you!

[@Kingstevedaboss]

I got my car checked for a coolant leak but they said that i also needed my vlv seals replaced. Based on the information you provided that's the case. Thanks 👍🏾

I used AT-205 reseal and it has slowed down oil consumption considerably on bmw n63 motor with leaking valve seals.

[@jantelow]

I wonder if BMW has observed that most of the cars on KZbin that burn a lot of oil are BMWs.

[@leeverink32]

my garage said it could cost up to 300 if they did not replace the timing belt.

[@jantelow]

I have the impression that if the engine burns a lot of oil then a compression test should be done and if it is ok then something else is the culprit and they don't think that it could be bad oil rings. The engine on my car has overheated once so I think there is a high chance that one or more oil rings could be damaged because of that.

I like to know the following:1 spark plug 1&3 are whet Kar do. Idol smoothly but will not pick up refs . Blue smoke when starting smoke for 3minits an it is liter and so to say gone.🇿🇦

[@wackey3455]

[@michsky46]

Quart of oil is how much in liters?

[@leeverink32]

about 1 litres.

[@michsky46]

@@leeverink32 shit that's a lot!

[@jeremiahnyamekye1612]

What if the car doesn’t smoke but it still comsume oil

[@JesusHernandez-ll5ok]

If a car doesn't smoke but still consuming a lot of oil, then check your wiskey bottles! 😇😌🥴🍾🍷🍸

[@svetlinspirov5758]

Maybe the catalytic converter hides most of the smoke. My car burns around 1L/2500km and there is just a tiiiiny puf at start-up. No leaks.

Would you allow me to join you in your company?

[@oscarguacimas918]

You dont have to take off timing chain,trust me!just put emergency brake on or if its manual make sure you have it in gear!

[@SooSmokie]

NO! you don't want the car in gear otherwise you cannot rotate the crank shaft to get TDC. E brake only
