Can someone confirm that the correct diameter for B230 valve shims is 33mm? I found a bunch of old valve shims, some of which are 30mm and some that are 33mm diameter (I think they're originally for use on a BMW). I'm due for a valve adjustment, so I may have all the shims I need if they use the 33mm shims.

Thanks all!

Hi,

Yes 33mm diameter. This I measured from my spare shims.

Amarin.
