BMW Mini vvt & head stripdown the easy way. Variable valve timing & cams removal R55 R56

[@randyreid4175]

Hi there! Thank you for the video. My father and I are attempting to do this undertaking on a mini r60 N18. However once we remove the exhaust cam, we are looking to find a tool for cheap that will help us compress the springs on the valve stem guides. Do you have any recommendations?

Hi, sorry I didn't get that far as I bought an exchange head in the head as I was pushed for time. Have a search on line for valve compression tools.

Thanks, sorry I bought a new head in the end and sold this one for spares, so no follow up video I'm afraid !!
