Something has already been written about N47 engines here.

As long as it runs good and you have no problems with it...then it's fine. Keep it.

Was the engine put in or did you buy it like that from Toyota with that engine?

I can’t give a clear yes or no. It is the Toyota WW engine, to my knowledge.

The reason I would be hesitant is because the BMW engine the WW is based on had some timing chain issues and EGR issues. 

With that said, Toyota reworked the engine for their needs, and they have higher standards in terms of quality and longevity, than BMW. So that would make it interesting to keep.

If it runs fine and you like it....then keep it.
