The main crank bolt is "bicep-tear" level of tight! Did that once tightening a differential pinion nut to get the proper preload. Took almost a year for the bicep to stop hurting. As I get older, I now think about how I can arrange an assembly so that to tighten I'm pushing "down" on the breaker bar or stand on it. Aside from BMW there are other manufacturer's who have stopped using keys on crank hubs or cam wheels, which necessitates having special tooling to get the timing correct. Thanks for sharing your experience with us fellow N52 enthusiasts.

Hello mate! What was the reason to rebuild? I am currently planning to do a rebuilt as well. I'm having oil consumption of 1L/1500km and it's really annoying. I hired a garage where I'm doing the repairs myself (PCV, suspension etc). But I think the time comes for a major overhaul. I have the valve stem seals 5&6mm, head gasket, valve cover gasket etc. My plan was to change the valve stem seals only, but I believe my main issue is with the piston rings. Borescope showed no visible damage in the cylinder chamber. I suspect the rings because the car is with LPG system for around 10 years and I think this definitely contributed to them to wear out faster

@@foundinscriptureorg yeah the timing chain is not attach to the oil pump , but if you need to remove the oil pump chain you do have to remove the timing chain which it involves removing the center bolt and the hub and obviously the timing chain sprocket by removing the whole timing chain, just like explained in this vid

Can I ask how long it took you to do the complete rebuilt the time you built the whole engine , also how many hours it took to put into the vehicle? One last question are you a mechanic by trade or have you just learned this over the years of fixing your vehicles?

I would be happy if you help. I have a 2007 BMW X5 E70 3.0si vehicle. Two weeks ago, the exhaust side camshaft broke down. We realized this after the low oil pressure warning. My mechanic did not see the need to open the lower crankcase and said that the problem was in the upper cover. As he said, the camshaft was faulty (the bearing was broken). He procured these and other necessary parts and reassembled everything. He washed the upper part of the engine and the parts it was attached to by spraying air with diesel oil (diesel may have gotten into some sockets here). Then he replaced the valvetronic engine and tried to give it the first start. But he failed to start the engine. I asked him whether the crank and camshaft synchronization was done correctly (because we also changed the chain and valves). He said that he had done the accuracy test on it twice. We have not been able to start the engine for about a week. The error codes are 2a9a and 2a9b. My mechanic found that the coils were not igniting. They tested with many different devices. They tried coding etc. thinking that the problem was in the Valvetronic engine. They still couldn't get any results. The last time they tested it was with another device and they said that my vehicle was giving off sauce and went into theft mode. That's why the engine was not firing. I would like to hear your opinions since you repaired the same engine and a similar problem. I would really appreciate it if you answer. (my engine n52b30)

@bmwn5238 5 ай бұрын

yeah i wish you where more specific about the codes but what he is talking about i am assuming is the called EWS German for antti -theft system. In your vehicle year and model it should be able to disengage this code whit a bmw software name ISTA , this has a service faction that would reset this EWS code if that is what your problem is . There is an cell phone aplication from bimergeeks named protol that has this service function but i do not know if it will work whit you particular car i know it work for sure on e90s, any way if your mechanic dosent have ISTA he wouild not be aible to know for siire what is the problem, evean if heas has the most expensive scaner , he may require ista P to programs such code i know v series sometimes the service fuction i hiden in Ista P instead of just ista,,I hope I anwers is clear enough about ista and ista P

Do u recognized that the camlobes are thicker on the one exhaust camshaft. Would be cool if u can say something about that because u obviously have more knowledge about n52 then me i guess :Dty
