What a great experience with Everything ///M3’s taking care of my Z4M, work done included:

- King race bearings
- Oil pump inspection
- Sump gasket
- Castrol 10w-60 oil service
- S54 comprehensive Vanos overhaul:
- Beisan systems seals kits
- Beisan systems anti-rattle kit
- Beisan systems rebuilt solenoid coil pack
- Vanos micro filter
- S63 hub springs
- Timing chain tensioner guide rail
- updated cam bolts
- Vanos cam timing set to optimum setting
- Engine Mounts
-CPValve replacement
Where to start on Darragh, a real passionate specialist with a great pedigree and came highly recommended. Specialising in refurbing and manufacturing differentials for these cars, nothing he doesn’t know about the mechanics of these engines and cars. Happy to educate a Newbie like me, and also for me to hang around and learn a few things into the process.
If you have an M and in particular an S54 engines M3 or Z4M this is the place to go for maintenance, repairs and upgrades. The car feels 10 years younger, I honestly can’t believe the difference throughout. Very happy customer and no I’m not being compensated in any way for this review.
I won’t go anywhere else for this type of work again. Happy to share any more details if anyone interested but in a nutshell, car at 56k 3 owners including me, just had an inspection 2 before this, all was well, however as you can see from the pictures the bearings were badly worn, Vanos rattle was audible, although I didn't know that is wasn’t normal as I’m new to the car, now a completely different animal.
Car had full service history from new, Just goes to show if you’re buying a 13 year old car you never know if the car has been driven cold or not taken care of, or even if it has... this could catch you out. Glad I took the plunge and got the work done. thanks to @D4dawg for the great photos!
