Do not kill me, advice on BMW please

Post by Zoltan2222 »

A college of mine is looking for timing tool specs and sizes for his E90 320i N46 engine.
Can anyone help or can we download it somewhere?

Why not simply buy the tools. I really don't think anybody will have specs for timing tools lying around.

If the R2500 or so that most of those cost bothers him then perhaps he has bought the wrong car.
