BMW made crankshaft

Hi

Wonder if it’s been misquoted as I haven’t seen it mentioned on the forum with reference to BMW

I don't think one can call Rotweiss "a very good German Company" !

It is not German, it was incorporated in the UK on 29 January 2019 Company number 11794479

Registered office address: Fisherwick Road, Whittington, Staffordshire, England, WS13 8PR

First accounts made up to 31 January 2020 - due by 29 October 2020

Nature of business (SIC): 99999 - Dormant Company

For what it's worth authorised & issued share capital is £100 and it is controlled by a Romanian & a Moldovan.

I would suggest caution.

they are probably reselling this crankshaft:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JAGUAR-XF-2-7-C...0005.m1851

and those i bet are cloned cranks made in India, i used an Indian crank on a toyota rebuild a few years ago, the car was sold to a mate in the end, its still running now 40 000 miles later, but the crank was clearly a clone, had poor casting, much rougher than the original crank... but journal sizes were perfect. It was a gamble we were happy to take at the time.
