looks like cold start water vapour...its mainly steam This footage does not look like a bore scoring issue...You can not see oil smoke, maybe slight on firing but then clear, this is just from oil settling in the flat 6. At least let it run up to temperature and then check. You can only assume the engine is cold here if you don't indicate otherwise.... so you can't really tell anything or diagnose from this.

get a bore scope

Not posting a follow up of what you have done to fix this common failure on the Ultimate Drive Junk? BMW should have listened to ATG that those banjos are a joke & designed poorly. They refused to listen because rich owners are willing to pay for fixing. After as low as 18K, the Camshafts become defective. Why do you think the down fall of the gas guzzler M30 engine series? Used/resale of the E23/E24 are a joke? No fool is going to drop $9,000+ for camshaft replacement when the car is worth less than $2,000! One can buy a Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla for under $22K, drives it over 125K without major problem. Then sale it for $11,000. Not on a BMW 6 & 7 series.

She tells a story like smokyo rose

Exactly what my 996 3.4 did, only when engine hot, and left idling. Rev and it would go away. No loss of power etc. but it would pop and cough when starting. :/

Snap. Mine does the same. I'm going to try and hunt it down

Were you losing engine oil on the bore scoring?

Have e23 is same thing😅

Did you fix it?

First bmw I’ve seen on UA-cam with a full tank

Oh no, that is going to be expensive. Did you fix it yet?

Don’t buy a motor from nein lives parts on eBay it will sound worse after 1700 miles

Sounds like a nein lives rebuild from eBay after 1700 miles . Buyer beware!

looks my 911

Full part out? I’ll put the motor in my Subaru 😂 I love all my flat engines❤️

Don't overcomplicate matters. M96 is supposed to smoke when you light them up. It's the tell-tale sign you're in a Porsche. If you don't like the puff of smoke, just replace the AOS. It's a $100 part, a 1 hour job. Which will cost you the skin on your knuckles, though. "Bore score" 🙄

did you find the problem and what was wrong

Doesn't seem like bore scoring...

Because of the flat engine configuration, you typically get a little blue smoke on startup, as oil has a tendency to settle.

you sure its scored, seems like every Porsche I've owned

This car is worth every penny, issues and all. I want one

I did not see nor hear anything alarming!

No big deal, totally normal

any interest in selling the 997?

As a long term BMW specialist I found the perfect 100% way of preventing valve gear clatter by milling a 1.5mm annular grove around the two camshaft oil supply banjos. The banjo’s oil outlet holes. in their original state they only have three oil outlet holes so the was a high risk of the cam lobes to the front and the rear of the two banjo’s being starved of oil hence premature camshaft failure.

Did this noise come and go? Or always present

Just drive them & dont loose sleep. Do the low oil sump & IMS kits and dam thing is a beast !

all ok

Haha bro that’s called a normal cold start 😆. Trust me I have 997 turbo. It’ll smoke sometimes because of the flat 6 design. The rest is just normal steam from startup. You don’t even hear the scoring.

but noise😭

Nonsense.... this and the IMS paranoia will keep 'specialists' in business for many years.

That's not got bore score

What do the other tests do?

There's a huge bore score issue with porsche engines i found out recently... especially from cold climate owners up north..

Do 911 owners not know this is way more common than IMS failures? People seem to have no clue how prevalent this is in the comments and it is wild.

junk

انها الحلم

that's totally normal and does not show anything more than your air oil separator may need to be replaced.

Yikes. I know its been a while, but I hope you at least checked the AOS before you wrote this engine off.

i used to have the same sound, but I change my exhaust gasket on the manifold to the head and it fixed that.

Your engine is noisy compared to mine. Watch my video as a comparison

Banks 4,5,6 = Wallet destruction and steel liners fitted.

that ticky noise is normal for this engine . but i should replace the icv and afm for better idle.

Check out the K997 engine swap videos, may be you want to do that.

Was the tapping noise their when engine is cold ?

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Hi dude.. how did you solve this problem ?

Man don't be sill this is normal ,, drive the car and enjoy it and stop worrying about stupidness the marketing workshop people want to sell you shit you don't need just change your oil yearly and the car will be find ,,, if you get a lot of smoke at start up ,, the problem will be your AOS (air oil separator) replace and every thing will be find .... join the group... facebook.com/groups/1515570201802930

Hi, does the noise disappear when the car is warmed up? Mine has similar noise during start up but the noise disappears when the car is warm. Thanks
