10 Reviews for GAS Master Cam Timing Tool Kit for the BMW/Land Rover M62-M62tu Engine

• Timing chains for 2001 740il - Saturday, June 7, 2025
  Absolutely love the kit. Easy to use and worth the money since the cheap Chinese knockoffs always have issues and the "Genuine BMW" tools cost a fortune. The only issue I have is the TDC lock pin. Even with the kit, I had to spend more on a TDC lock pin that would allow me to remove the crank pulley bolt. Even with that short fall (my opinion) I highly recommend the kit.
  German Auto Solutions reply: Just an FYI to customers... You should never try to hold the crankshaft with the TDC lock pin while removing the front balancer bolt. You could actually break the engine casting at the TDC pin hole, or if you use a TDC without a reduced diameter section, you could bend the TDC pin. If you bend a TDC pin without the reduced diameter section, you will not be able to remove the pin from the crankcase, and then you will need to remove the transmission and flywheel to access the pin to cut it off from the back side. Our pin, like the OEM BMW pin, is designed to be able to be removed if bent while installed in the engine crankcase. Some people have been successful using the TDC pin to hold the crankshaft while removing the balancer bolt, but we DO NOT recommend it.
• Can’t wait to use it - Sunday, February 9, 2025
  I’m giving it a five star rating because I already know it’s legit. Used every kit under the sun on dozens of M 62’s with success, but always a bit of uncertainty due to the quality and accuracy of the machine work used to produce other kits. Picked it up from the post office yesterday and by the time I got the valve covers off, I had a small audience

  The hype is real, these are absolutely the best tools for the job. While it's tempting to use cheaper tools, it's completely worth the little extra money for these. As others have stated, these tools inspire far more confidence than other timing tools, and are virtually foolproof. Got my car timed on the first try, zero issues.

  Step 31 in the instructions should read Bank 1-4, also I got caught not having a tension wrench capable of left hand threads. Maybe a mention in the instructions might help someone else. The kit is utterly fantastic. Apart from the above instructions were right on point. 5 Stars no question regarding recommendations.
  
  GAS reply - I double checked and step 31 is correct. Thank you for the review and feedback.

  Perfectly machined blocks, very good instructions provided with full color pictures for every step. Have purchased other parts from GAS in the past and would buy every part they make if I could.
• Bar far the best M62 Timing tools on the market - Saturday, November 19, 2022
  I tried to time my M62TU four different times with the cheep Chinese tools. I always got a check engine light with timing over advanced on both banks. When I purchased and used the GAS tools, they were so perfectly engineered and user friendly that I was shocked. I would recommend these to anyone. It's true, you get what you pay and these tools are worth every penny.

  Badass gear ! All new timing component install was gravy with this set. If you're too cheap to pay someone to do this job don't scrimp out on the tool. I've used 2 tools other than this one to do this job and I must say the GAS tool is more user friendly than the SST from BMW North America. These tools make the job fool proof. You can't put a price on the confidence you'll have knowing the timing is correct the 1st time. Also, it should be said I contacted GAS customer service prior to purchase and I was very impressed with that as well. Speedy reply, accurate information and fast shipping. Buy this tool, you won't regret it. A++ in every category
  
• I couldn't be happier with your product - E39 540i - Saturday, August 3, 2019
  I recently purchased the m62tu master timing tool kit. I just wanted to say that I am very pleased with your product. I am a machinist by trade so I do appreciate the time and effort that obviously went in to producing the tools, they are even better quality than i had hoped. I will highly recommend your tools to anyone I can. Thank you again, I couldn't be happier with your product.
