I bet it's a manifold gasket or other hose that isn't installed correctly. ctuna's response reminded me of when I did the crankshaft sensor, and it's very true that a lot of stuff comes off. It would be pretty easy to pinch a manifold gasket.
I have nothing against mobile mechanics, and used a locally-known BMW expert for my valve cover gasket. It started roughly for a week, until I saw the gasket was not seated correctly. He came back and redid it, no cost, and the car has run well for the past 2 years. People make mistakes. |
I get people make mistakes. What upset me is that he didn't event want to take a look. Like I took your money and I'm out. I would have went to a bmw mechanic if it wasn't far. Car wasn't starting so I probably would have paid the same with getting a tow truck. I'll check the gaskets. Thanx.
