M42 Chain and Tensioner parts

[baggimodo]

I'm going to change the timing chain, tensioner and guide rail on my M42 but I can't work out which guide rail I need from RealOEM, do you have a price for all the parts required to change the chain, guide rail and tensioner?

Thanks in advance

See if you can get the chassis no off the car it came from. Thanks.

I'm also interested in this, I'll PM you too Mr. Cotswoldbmw sir.

This is a bit of a tricky one, not knowing the engine details, not knowing exactly what items you will need to do the job completely.

if you give us part descriptions or part numbers then we can always quote you but as always if parts required are not standared fitment I will always ask for a list of part numbers required, this might sound a bit over the top but a couple of times in the past we have quoted for items which have then been ordered which were incorrect, it gives you delays in getting it right and can cost us in returning items to BMW

Hey guys, could you get prices for these based on cjdonny's VIN?

Seems like these are only available from BMW so going to have to bite the bullet soon
