This BMW Was Minutes Away From Blowing Up…

Published at : 13 Dec 2025

This BMW 328i was minutes away from a catastrophic engine failure… and the dealer wanted $9,400 to fix it.
In this video I take you through the entire timing chain repair on the N20 engine — step by step — and show you how I brought this car back to life for only $750.
Whether you own a BMW 320i / 328i / 428i with the N20 engine, or you’re just curious why these timing chains fail so often, this video will show you exactly what to look for, how to diagnose it, and how to fix it the right way.
This isn’t just a tutorial — it’s a rescue mission.
And if you own a BMW with the N20 engine… you need to see this.
