What caused your timing chain issues and why didnt you choose to go with forged rods? Mine is losing less than a liter/ 5k miles (7km) but it's a constant stinky oil burning smell so I think I have either that rear main &or valley leak that you had (I'm at 105k miles / 169km). I'd love to switch my coolant lines over to the simplified non-OEM you use if you ever do a detailed video.
My car was at 163.000 kms and just like some other BMW engines the chains stretch as they age. I rebuilt the X5M for my wife (so I can fun while driving with the family) and will keep it stock for now. Was also trying to keep expenses at a minimum that's why I did not change the rods. Regarding the lines, Ill have plenty more videos coming soon (got busy at work means no time for editing)
Hi, the BMW manual/assembly procedure requires a tiny bit of silicone between the block/engine timing cover. The OEM gasket has and expandable rubber material on the tip to seal that part but I guess its just too much heat so BMW ask to use bit of silicone. (yes just silicone and new gaskets)
Hi, yes I should have a full list of parts and 360Gb of videos and tutorial I'll be uploading soon. Keep an eye out for new videos, but in a summary I'd say: Gasket set (top and bottom) comes with almost every single gasket/seal for the S63/N63 - All main and rod bearings - Timing chain kit (full kit with tensioners and rails) - PCV / oil separators
Nice work😊
Thanks 😄

Why didnt yu use silicone glue when yu attach head gasket work etc ?
Yu just use seal without any other glue.

do you have a parts list that you have bought for this engine?

Yes, I had lots of smoke from the tail pipe sometimes even at idle hence the reason I rebuilt the engine.
