I think you are in the UK from you profile picture (the flag) dont know where

Check this thread on UKGSER - the engine was buggered with a cross threaded sump bolt, but stripped down, repaired, and then reassembled. There are contacts in the thread as to who did it.

Also Steptoe may be able to help.
He is in London some where.

I dont live in the UK but both of them seem to do good work, Steptoe has a great reputation

Hi, I'm sure Andrew Sexton in Hook Norton could do it; he's been around beemers for years. Old school so no email or website; workshop is 01608 730111.
