Its confirmed chain issue. Possible slip rather than snap.
It does have FULL BMW history up to the last one, which was performed by the dealer I purchased it off in Sept 2017.
I have decided to sell it as spares or repairs, as I cant afford not to have a car off the road whilst its being repaired.

Loss of power
Help please. Whilst driving at low speeds earlier the car suddenly lost power the DDE light came on and then came to a stop. When trying to start there is no sign of the engine turning. Breakdown assistance suggests no compression. It’s a 2.0d N47 2008 94k Miles. Could the chain have gone? Sent from ...

2008 4.8i SE Black/Black leather - £10500 ono
Stunning metallic black with black leather and silver trim sitting on 20" Y-Spoke alloys wrapped in Bridgestone rubber. Lovingly washed and waxed nearly every weekend by me. As you can see bodywork is excellent, interior is excellent no rips or tears. This car has been well cared for over the years ...

Spring cleaning....
So I've had this for about 4 months now. It's a great car, it's effortlessly powerful and the V8 is sublime. I gave her a good clean at the weekend, used Poorboys and Collinite, and Autoglym for the plastics. I am over the moon with the results. I've replaced the kidney grills with gloss black and I ...

Re: sourcing E70 headlamp washer jets- confused!
I was quoted £101 for one plus the cover from Cotswold! Can you just replace the jet piece without removing the entire unit?

I have the same issue. Need drivers side replacing. This link should help.
Does anyone know if this is a diy replacement?

Headlight washer
Just noticed that the drivers side headlight washer is not quite right. It still works but when squirted a tube pops out and water just pours on the floor. Is this a simple diy fix? What parts do I need? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180306/dc828495c3010fed9a19726e94e3da24.jpg https://uploads ...

Keys
My car only came with one key. I've looked into getting a spare but they are over £200! Looking through the bits and bobs draw and found a key from my old 1 series. It's the same style key, could it be reprogrammed to use with my X5?
