Good day,
I have recently experienced a whining noise from my motor on cold starts. Sounds like power steering pump on a cold morning.
When the car is on operating temperature the noise is still there but not as loud.
It leans more towards the oil pump and not the timing chain my own assumption looking at vids online. I would like to do the preventative maintenance before and just replace both the chains with tensioners so im covered for the next 100k
I want try and claim this from the 3rd party warranty first. if BMW diagnose that this is the chains. (made vids of the noise it makes)
Now the question can someone please advise on a reputable dealer where I can book the car in for the checks and work. Near and around JHB, PTA
no mods on the car
Thank you,
