N62 4.8 VALVE STEM SEALS BOFFINS

[pieter1]

I am told by a BMW expert to replace the valve stem seals on my X5 N62 4.8is with double vanos and valvetronic. I can do it myself, but I an scared I mess the timing up, as it is not a Nissan 1400 engine.
I need a reputable mechanic (not money shark) who can help in the PTA area. Any names?

If you have the vanos locking tools its pretty easy, then it is almost a 1400 job.

So ask the mech thats gonig to do it, if he has the tools, and ask him to show it to you.
