Question 1: Have you fit a LTT to your M96 3.6 / M97 3.6 & 3.8 engine?
Question 2: Why?
jl-c said:I fitted a LTT to my M97 3.8 and still had bore score BUT I have no idea how the previous owners drove the car for 60,000 miles before I had it. Cost me a lot for a full Hartech rebuild but hey, some you win, some you lose. I was 'aware" so it was a risk I took. I had 10,000 out of it before it had to be done. The only way to be sure is 1: buy a fully rebuilt one or 2: buy a new one. Simple choice! I thoroughly enjoyed the 10,000 and intend to enjoy the next!
GMG said:...wasz...so you know more than Hartech do you? Who have repeatedly advised that crank bearings on these , for example, are worn enough to be of increasing concern after about 70-80k miles...didn't think so!
..of course they say that ignorance is bliss thus if you own a high mileage (>80k miles) car then by all means continue to naively and incorrectly assume that just because it's still running then it's in ' just run in ' internal condition ... it won't be...
Thus I repeat that anyone buying one of these that hasn't had an engine rebuild or doesn't have a spare £10k in the bank is taking a massive risk; if you believe this to be controversial this says more about your lack of knowledge than mine...
