is it ok the run your car without the flywheel cover or is it needed..probably dont want any water going up in there but are any of you running without the flywheel cover?

 

I say keep it, not really bothering at all, if it's needed Idk, I would guess since it has it...

 

If you are frequently adjusting your cam gears then i would think about removing it. There are cars that run without them, and i belive its ok to do this. But you are risking getting dirt and other crap in the gears. I think there is a thread "project aries" or something like that where he has a DIY to make holes just for the cam gears and keep the guard.

keep it on, its not gonan hurt u for having it there. better safe then sorry. u don't rocks or something flying there and lodging itself stuck there.

 

if u have it, put it back on. I see many bmw's at work that dont even run them. But i mean if you got it, why not just throw it back on
