Default Cambelt - 03-31-2006 , 07:25 AM






Was discussing cambelts with a 3-series 2.8 litre owner (UK).
He said he had rung the local BMW dealership to enquire about cambelt
changes and was told his car didn't have one.

Is this correct ?

Since about 1990, all BMW engines have had chains only.
