Hi
Im looking at buying a bmw can someone advise on the N47N engine does this have the timming chain problem or is it just the M47 and N47D Engines thank you.

Any N47 from 2007 until 2015 or whenever the B47 replaced it. The chain problem was never cured.

I am a google professor of the N47 Timing chain .....sept 2007 to sept 2014 I really wouldn't plenty of other cars out there. They changed it a bit round 2011 mark and maybe later as well I do not think any snapped after 2013 they did in 2012 but still issues with noise
