Hi Guys,

My tappets are extremely noisy and the good ole mechanic had told me that the adjustments possibilities are right up to the end and only a change of the cams/ rocker arms and rocker arm shafts can help. ( my 323i is a 1983 model and I am not aware of any change of the above parts during her lifetime )

Anyhow, whilst I can source for the new rocker arms, I am unable to source for the two new rocker arm SHAFTS which holds the 12 arms.

I have looked at GSF, ebay and the lot but I just cannot find any supplier for a new SHAFT.

Can you guys help?

Thanks!
