I have an X5 which surprisingly* has an oil leak from its M54 engine which I’m sure has never happened before

It’s old and worthless but I would like to sort it out. It’s a bit big for working on in my own unit given I don’t have a lift and my axle stands are st (it’s not the rocker cover).

Any recommendations for a specialist in Gloucester / Cheltenham that will sort it out? I normally associate specialists with cherished cars worth spending money on. This is not one of those.

Steve Rowleys in Kingsditch trading estate in Cheltenham, He was an Ex BMW Chief Tech who left BMW Cheltenham and took 4 guys with him to set up his own business.
I took my M135 there for all my work. One of the best in Chelt/Glos

thumbup - that’s who I was trying to remember the name of. A colleague had an E60 with dodgy wiring and he sorted it out for buttons compared with the main dealer quote
