Nope one type, not hydraulic but with shims and they require a special BMW tool that's not cheap. You can check clearances first (see specs page) and if necessary have the dealer swap a few shims...ian190 wrote:I want to ask about valve adjustment?
or it's with hydraulic lifters?
i read that have 2 types with and without.
