'09 R56 - Mutt
Welcome Mutt!
Few things I have done recently:
vland - Headlights & Tail Lights
m7speed - Charge Pipes
wagnertuning - Front Mount Intercooler
aem - Cold Air Intake
miltek - Non Resonated Cat-Back 2.5” Exhaust
LED Sidemarkers Front & Rear
Back Story
Originally was bought by my dad in August, 2015 for 3500$, and had around 88,000 miles or so. Timing chain guides snapped, and it bent all the exhaust side valves. Was able to salvage the head, get it resurfaced, all new valves, springs, etc. Entire cooling system was replaced, and a bunch of misc work was done to clean it up. (Was a Upstate NY Vehicle). Parents drove it a few thousand miles, and this year ended up buying it as a daily driver. Currently sitting at 95k miles, and its been doing absolutely fantastic, minus its oil consumption.. gotta get an oil catch can soon too.
One of the bent exhaust valves (looks straight to me! )
