Hi all,

I've had a recurring engine light on my 2008 320i coupe. I've been advised that the vanos is the problem and needs replacing. They've also advised replacing the timing chain whilst everything's exposed.

They've quoted around £1500 all in. Not knowing much about the cost of these things, I was hoping some kind soul on the forum could let me know if this sounds reasonable?

Thanks in advance

      ECU Testing & Repair Recommenadations Wilts Area

      Hi there just thought I would give you an update regarding my ecu. I sent it to ecutesting as recommended unfortunately they couldn't do anything with it as they said that that they didn't have equipement or tech old enough to test it with lol. They were very apologetic and sent it back to me. Additionally they didn't know of anywhere else I could send it to for testing but of the checks they did do they didn't find anything untoward. So it looks like I will have to find somewhere else or risk buying a second part either way a little bit frustrating.

      "Battery Management" message

      Morning Alan Welcome to the Forum I find it hard to believe that a Main Dealer responded in that way, the car records ALL faults and their equipment should show it as a fault Present or fault Not Present? You don't want to compromise your Warranty however you could try a different Main Dealer. I would write to the Dealer MD a copy to the service manager and BMW UK Customer Service stating the facts of their investigation and efforts to fix it that have failed, point out that the car in it's current state is "unsuitable for purpose" and ask for a detailed course of action and time scale to resolve the issue. Good Luck Dave
