Hi, I've got a '95 2.5 TD auto with the BMW Engine which just stopped the other day whilst driving below 20mph. There was a clunk from under the bonnet, and the ignition lights came on. Now, when turning it over it sounds wrong and won't start or even fire. Suspected cam chain broken, has anyone known this happen before? A mate suggested either a thrown rod or a broken pulley, any ideas? If it is the chain or related are these engines safe or is it another head/valves etc?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Your speed problem may be a function of being an auto.My manual does 120 mph and I have the points to prove it! (normally on the German autobahn and not a problem there)

Spencer - you seem to be the expert on this siteI have a 2.5TDI manual estate July/August 98 which I have had from new (was my company car) and it has done 168,000 with almost no problems. Have replaced the glo plugs a couple of times, but am still on the first clutch. I now have a real problem in that the car will not start when cold and my local diesel electric experts tell me it is a leak on the bearings in the vacuum part of the injector pump not pulling enough fuel when it is cold and thick. Rebuild of the pump they are quoting at about £450 for parts plus labour Any suggestions please?

re your oil leak if you read the whole of this forum you will see it comes up many times , omegas as far as i know have plastic rocker covers and if you have a v6 you have two of them what happens over a period of time with the heat of the engine they warp and start to leak you need to get new rocker covers and gaskets fitted if you leave it for a long time the oil runs into the spark plug holes and eventually may get beyond spark plugs and could cause a misfire, I had both mine done recently at a cost of approx £200 but this was not at a main dealer, you could do them yourself it is not that difficult but be careful when you take off the cover on the petrol ignition hope this helps fm
