Seems a bit strange that the valve train would be making such noise if the engine had been rebuilt. Depending on the price, I would certainly look closely at the receipts.



I am hoping to get another M3 in the next week or so. It has a lot of miles on it, over 150k, but compression is still 225 per cylinder. The engine is runs fine, supposedly rebuilt, but the valvetrain was pretty loud. Thoughts?
Steve
