that sounds about right, could be even longer depending on how the valve adjustment goes, the engine must be completely cold (overnight) to do it right.

Exclamation

NM - I clicked on the E36 link by accident. I needed the E46 and it's still up.
================================
Link down for Insp II checklist! Is there an updated link? I'm about to have Insp II done.

Thanks!
