So I would imagine, another reason to let it all settle a bit On tickover before you turn the engine off?

Looking at doing turbo drain mod to mine as it is used for towing so don't get chance very often to get revs up.

Just rev it above 2500rpm now and again by using the flappy paddles and save yourself a whole heap of effort and risk of swarf into the engine.... Gone to a good home: 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

There is a risk to the DPF with the oil being dumped in there, dramatic soot rises on mine pre mod when it was smoking. Driving regularly above 2500 rpm isnt so easy due to the high gearing aqnd huge torque. BMW i3 Electric Car

Steve from my research this is all sump work. You're not drilling the block.

I don’t know by how much, but the subframe on mine was definitely loosened and moved when the drain mod was done by a MD. I could see where the Dinitrol coating had been disturbed.

Swarf is prevented from entering the sump by coating the drill bit with grease and removing the bit frequently to clean and renew the grease. The swarf feeds away from the rear of the cutting face so providing the bit isn't allowed to pull back then go forwards again without cleaning the bit and the drain to the lower hole then swarf should not get ahead of the tip. |
