Hi folks

My mechanic tells me it is time at 155k miles to replace the cam. Can anyone in the UK recommend a make of kit that they were please with - or do I go to the dealer and order all original parts?

Cam, rocker shafts, followers I assume?

Many thanks for anyone's views.

I recently installed Ireland's 284 regrind cam for the m30. Haven't been back to the dyno since, but it seems to pull well. The price is very attractive.

I wanted to put one on my 535i also... I wish they had regrind cams for the S52...

Did you try Hammach motorsport or Racing Dynamics in Germany ? They are crazy enough to make them....
