While I'm in there question..heads coming off (archive)

Well, I took the M5 in to our favorite German car mechanic to find a pesky oil leak that seems to be getting worse, and I can't find it.

It turns out to be the seal between the cam carrier and head. The seal is shot and needs to be replaced, so the head is coming off. $1500 later...no more oil leak.

This is a dangerous question, but what else should I have him take care of or look at while we are down this far? The guy is a very good mechanic as he has always taken care of our 944S, Jetta and 325i, so he may have suggestions anyway once he gets in there. I'm not looking to upgrade any equipment. I'd like the car to remain stock.

Suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

Dion
