If so then I would be more than happy to get it replaced <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /> My car's mileage is 21,000 KM when I got it but obviously it has been tampered. Original mileage is not known but I suspect it anywhere between 80K - 100K easily <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> It seems that the top engine valve cover stuck is quite a common thing for N53's. There's no reasons for it so far but the ventilation valve somewhere in that cover screwed up so the only way is to replace the whole unit (that's what I have been told by the mechanic).@alantiong, you're absolutely right. Cleanliness of the fuel is based on the European emission standards (EURO-2M, 4, 5, 6, etc) and not the RON level. These are 2 seperate things but I don't know why most people gets confused about it <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> They often think RON 97 is cleaner and better for the engine which is definitely flawed.</blockquote>
