BMW M54 Dual Vanos Timing Procedure

[@walterinc6060]

We needed this video, literally the best and latest video on an M54

Hey Nice Video i have one question for the moment 0:32 The gear at this moment where the timing chain is hanging would not move the exhaust camshaft in this state. You can perhaps show me in the video where this gear of the exhaust camshaft is firmly connected to the chain so that when you move the timing chain, the exhaust camshaft is rotated directly can ? Since it doesn't get into my brain how the outlet side works! I would be extremely grateful for an answer 🙏

The "E" stands for "Einlass" ("inlet" in English) and the "A" is for "Auspuff" ("exhaust" in English). Btw, all nouns in German (afterall, BMW is a German car) are capitalized.

All of these nuts and bolts should only be hand tightened and then torqued. if you use a ratchet you can inadvertently exceed the torque spec and the torque wrench will only tell you you have reached the torque, not that you have exceeded the torque spec. This is particularly important at lower torque settings.

Hallo icv habe eine frage undzwar wenn du bei minute 18:10 alles festgezogen hast ist das richtig dass sich die zahnräder durch eindrücken der kolben von der vanos sich nicht mehr bewegen lassen ? damit man die nocken welle verstellen kann ? Danke 🎉

Crank won’t turn more than 30 degrees after pulling the crank pin out… any ideas??

What torque does the two left hand screws need to be at ? The smal screws before the plastic caps ( cam screws) .

[@AnthonnyAndria]

8Nm but just go to the contact then put a very little extra tight and that's is, they are easy to fail so...
