Part 2: Timing The Engine - M62TU Timing Chain Guide Replacement DIY - E53 Rescue

Big thanks to https://www.oembimmerparts.com for sponsoring this series.

The BMW M62TU engine and its predecessors suffer from a common failure: the timing chain guides. Typically this problem surfaces after 125k miles or so, but people have gone north of 150-175k. It all depends on luck of the draw and how regular your oil service was, etc.
