Default Leak down results

Hi chaps,

Csl was recently in with BMW for some body repairs and with it recently passing 100k and all the recent talk of head gasket issues I asked for a leak down test.

Results are as follows:

Cyl 1 - 3%
Cyl 2 - 6%
Cyl 3 - 5%
Cyl 4 - 4%
Cyl 5 - 6%
Cyl 6 - 3%

From what I've read online that sounds like a good engine still but thought it would be good to compare - anybody else got numbers?

In other news - brand new bumper and bonnet, including cf aero bits looks drool worthy stunning :D

Cheers,
Ashley

In a way they look a bit too good - wondering if the test was botched. Saw some "good" S54 numbers that were in the low 20s.

181 euros in my case. But to be honest you should find it cheaper!
