another thing, when I pump the brake pedal and when I am holding it down it slowly starts to release the tension, I don't see any fluid leaks under the car...
I've changed front brake discs.. nothing else, feels like it has some air in system... I will try to bleed them, hope this works.

When I returned from short test run, the right brake disc was noticeably hotter than the left one. There is a lot of friction on left brake disc/pad , I can't seem to find why is that ....

everything is sorted except some oil disappearing issues, but not as much as it was before.

Just an update, timing belt guide is nearly 50 % completed, had a lot of things to add, and then sort them in order.... anyway, If I will not be too lazy to do that, it should be ready by mid Monday

Change oil to better one, it should help.
In my case I moved timing belt one tooth to the left.
that sorted it, you can even fine tune it by adjust tensioner

Off topic, I know that somebody fine adjusted timing on bmw petrol engine that when he put glass of water on engine itself, water was barely disturbed

I can't confirm or deny this, but that could be it
