In this video I teardown my BMW n20 engine to find the cause of the knock. This engine had a very serious rod knock when running and after putting it a way for a while, I finally decided to take it all apart and see what was causing it to run so poorly. This N20 had a little over 110,000 miles on it when this happened; however, I do not know the history of the engine or how it happened. Oil was changed about every 10k miles according to the CarFax. I also go over some of the common issues on a BMW n20 engine as I'm taking it apart. BMW N20 Rod Knock.
