hi chaps.
im after some help really, ive got a 2003 e46 320d sport which ive had about six months.i bought it private and did not bother with any inspections. [thought i was clever] anyway about two months ago i noticed she was smoking a liitle when i revved her up but if i gave her a bit of a thrashing the smoke would go away. well this got worse. i took it to a bmw mech and he told me the turbo had gone and that the crank case breather was blocked. i no very little about new cars, but i could still here the turbo whistle quite sweetly so i was not convinced. i took it to my friend whos pretty good with cars and he said the same. i phoned bmw with the knowledge i had, i hung up at =A32500. i phoned cooks in enfield and told them the problem, and was told to try changing the crank case breather thing i phoned bmw back bought the part =A336.00 and they even printed me a diagram of how to fit. well deep breath.two hours later job done. cleaned up, started her up, im off.no smoke she spluttered a little but a few times up the m11 and she was fine. well a week later i went back to mech just to rub it in,he asked me to lift the bonnet and start the car. he undid the oil filler cap and oil spurted out and a bit of smoke. now he tells me there is still a problem as there should not be back pressure there. ive been giving the car a bit of stick over the last week and to be honest she seems fine. my mate said it could be the rings, im scared of bmw, and just wondered if any of you guys have had the same problems. i am bit of a fix it myself person but dont want to go too far. thanks
