Damaged injector replacement on BMW X5.

In case you own a BMW X5 with a 6 cylinder N55, or Diesel engine you may want to check your vehicles firewall partition so you don’t end up with seized damaged injectors, due to acid rain and washer fluid leaking into the top engine cavity, underneath the decorative engine cover.

This X5’s #6 injector has been ripped apart by someone, trying to extract it from being fused to the cylinder head. Additionally, he also damaged #5 in the process. I had to make a special tool for this occasion, so I can extract the remaining piece out of the cylinder head, without the removal of the entire head which would be $$$$$.

This whole predicament could be prevented if the partition walls were replaced earlier.

This is a perfect example why you should take your luxury vehicle to a specialist, as we all know this is a common issue on these vehicles.

I appreciate the knowledge of a general practitioner or doctor, but you can get brain or heart surgery only from a specialist.  Correct ? (I didn’t intend to offend any doctors in here, this is only meant to highlight each has their own fields of specialty for obvious reasons.)

Folks you have bought a luxury automobile, so please give it a proper care or you will spend way more trying to resurrect it. We care, do you?

Any questions, how may we help? Give us a call to: 905.795.0419!
