Good info. FYI just bought a 2007 328i with 155kms and within the week the car stalls twice. Followed up with your recommendations and changed the oil also. Drove for over two weeks before it stalled on turns. Changed the oil and filter again. Have driven over two tank fulls and so far so good.

[@davidclark4960]

Great videos as always! I have an interesting issue on 2005 BMW 545i/N62 engine. Getting intake and exhaust VANOS solenoid failure codes, Bank 2. Replaced the solenoids with new ones, still have same issue. Have checked all electrical connections. Issue arises upon startup and lasts for about 30 seconds and throws CEL, rough idle, and then smooths out-assuming the DME is deleting Bank 2 VANOS to full open position as a default. Had it at my independent, they cannot figure this issue out. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[@stevegreen3218]

What did you find? I have the same issue and it it NOT my VANOS solenoids.

[@davidclark4960]

@@stevegreen3218 So far I have completely disconnected all 4 Vanos Solenoids and the car is running better although cold start is a bit rough still. I can tell the car is running rich as well due a bit of increased emissions discharge (CEL light and Increased Emissions Warning present). Oddly the transmission wants to go into "limp" mode as well until the car has been running for 5-10 minutes. Not sure this is related to this issue or not. To be honest I'm ready to move on from this car as I have been working issues for about 6 months. Got past all of the oil leaks and then inherited the current issues. What are you seeing on your end??

[@stevegreen3218]

@@davidclark4960 It turns out that all of my troubleshooting was likely a waste of time. During my research, I came across this bulletin: static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2015/MC-10147598-9999.pdf As it says, I ran the Engine Oil Disturbed procedure, cleared the fault memory via ISTA+. The CEL went away (along with all of the other stored codes). I was only getting P0024, so our problems are a little different, but here's the kicker. Even though there was literally nothing wrong with my car - all it needed was the Engine Oil Disturbed procedure - having that code in the DME still caused the Bank 2 Exhaust Cam timing to stay at 120°. I verified this in ISTA+ during troubleshooting and after running the EOD procedure. I hope this helps!

I have a 2008 X3 3.0SI with the N52 with 107,000 miles on it. Shortly after purchasing it I got those two codes. After searching everyone said it was the vanos solenoids. So I replaced both of those with OEM parts. A week later the codes came back. I bought another vanos solenoid thinking maybe I got 2 bad ones. I replaced just one of them. The codes came back shortly after and it again was both intake and exhaust at the same time. I took a shot in the dark and replaced the vanos check valves, the codes still came back. Then I replaced the camshaft position sensors thinking maybe they were just broken. The codes still came back. When the codes do come back it is usually just after startup and I can feel the engine surge a bit, and then it throws the codes. Curiously every single time it throws the codes it is both intake and exhaust at the same time. I think it might be the vanos actuator motor? To summarize I've replaced: Both vanos solenoids Both camshaft position sensors Both Vanos check valves Either way I want to stop throwing parts at it in hopes it will fix the problem. Any idea. Please I need you help I know you own bmw. Thank you for you time.

So what if you have new injectors, new vanos, get an intake code for CPS; then replace it and get same code? Is it timing?

[@Data4664]

Bad oil? Cam sensor?maybe the chain yes

[@jqnshanero8531]

@@Data4664 changed oil before the vanos. Changed both cam sensors and crank sensor and now still has crank sensor code. It’s vanos system or timing…whonfreakin knows at this point 🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

[@tayoni800]

Can I replace the intake solenoid valve and the exhaust solenoid valve?

[@timoto6323]

Yes you can get them at a auto parts store

I changed timing timin chain on 2013 BMW 328i I get this permanent code PO52B car cranks but doesn’t start!’ Any help greatly appreciated.

[@stevendunnuck]

Check timing/ make sure all connector are connected correctly

Can I use carburetor cleaner to clean the sensor?

Hi. I just want to ask what's causing the grey , blueish smoke on the n52 bmw E90 2006 model

[@unclebillpage]

Bluish smoke in any engine (BMW or not) usually indicates that the engine is burning oil. Check compression to see if piston rings are abnormally worn.

On a 06 530i

[@pitbullbite5835]

I tried to do preventative maintenance and changed both vanos and I got code P0015. Now the half yellow engine block is on as well. Says reduced power... I'm lost...

[@CaliRepublic77]

I switched the solenoids and the problem got worse.

[@teetsmcgeets14]

My X3 is giving me this code but the car won’t start, it just cranks? Any ideas?

[@levkarpets3329]

[@vincentenciso536]
