checked the suction and it's not too bad, flap opens without too much force. Got nothing to compare it to so no idea.
I will be replacing my seal this weekend as it's been leaking more lately

Tomorrow mate. I have a car mid build on my lift at the moment so need that finished.Buckz wrote: ↑Fri Aug 11, 2017 12:00 pmdid you manage to fix this in the end? i'm replacing my seal tomorrow.. we'll see how that goes.

That is annoying! I still didn't get round to doing mine. It was Gaydon BMW show over the weekend so I ran out of time. I always quote my own BMW part numbers when ordering parts "11127552280" saves the confusion.Buckz wrote: ↑Sat Aug 12, 2017 10:04 am Anyway, I'm back. After stripping it all down the gasket I got doesn't fit. It needs to be the same part that Joycey has. Aka a gasket and the surrounding plate. The one I got was just internal bit but you can't remove it.
Which dealer sold yours Joycey? They seem to sell the part I've got and the part you've got which is the one I need.
Annoying to say the least.
Thanks, I'll call up the local dealer and see if I can get part in!Joycey wrote: ↑Mon Aug 14, 2017 8:08 amThat is annoying! I still didn't get round to doing mine.

need to take the engine cover off to check if it's still collecting near the spark plugs, I've driven it hard a few times now so if it is still leaking I'd expect to see it.
Right, just checked.. and bad news, still leaking! much less but still collecting oil going to get some gasket sealant and see if that helps, what a pita! this is going to be 3rd time pulling it apart.
