DIY E70 BMW X5 Vanos Solenoids Replacement N63 (XDrive50i)

[@rondxrpshibarmy9949]

Man you make that look easy... I need to replace my vanos as well, they threw a code when I was in cold temperatures after getting my engine rebuilt by Pure Performance of Houston( awesome job) but I will definitely use your vid when I do the car which is an X6M. Thanks for a great vid, job well done.

Happy to help, if follow the instruction it’s not that hard😉 the hardest part is removal and installation of air cooler, those 3 bolts are pain in the butt😁

[@fredsaucier]

Wow what a great video,do you work on bmw for a loving?

[@Zeiten]

@fredsaucier yep it’s been a decade already fixing bmws only

[@BmwolotlE90]

Man what a pain it looks to get to 😹, glad its so easy on the n52 haha. I agree on the scan tool, its a must need for proper direction and diagnostic on what to repair otherwise will be chasing the issue like a headless chicken 😹. Great job Tim, keep it up brother 👍🏼

[@Zeiten]

Thank you, yes n52 is great engine in line of latest bmw engines, easy to maintain for sure🙌

[@BmwolotlE90]

@@Zeiten Indeed it is!

[@dogger2186]

Wow what a PITA on this engine...Glad I have the N52

[@Zeiten]

I recommend everyone to stay away from n63 engine

[@federicotorresbordils7624]

Most VANOS DTC's are caused by oil condition, so keep atention to service time. Some engines have check valves and some have the filter on the solenoid itself, some preventive maintenance would be to clean them. BimmerN53

Cleaning doesn’t work long term in most cases, but you are right frequent oil changes prevent this issue most of the time👍

Hello Tim, nice work. I have the same but 2011 X5 XDrive50i. I’m trying to pass the California Smog but the FUE, CAT, O2S, and EVAP are not complete despite conducting the BMW drive cycle. Do you have any ideas or suggestions on what to do? Thank you.

Hello, i have a p02cf cylinder 2 fuel inj offset at max limit, my car is really lazy

[@TheNascar991]

hey i own a few BMWs and one i really can't figure out is my 335i, fantastic car with low miles, my issue is a crazy dash going nuts.. all the lights come on and my radio blinks off and on then it goes back to normal..any idea??? also my tpms won't work either..

[@Zeiten]

Check alternator might be overcharging, definitely something with voltage supply

[@TheNascar991]

@@Zeiten I was hoping maybe a loose wire under the dssh..I just can't agree that's the FRM doing this..all lights,doors,ac,alarm working perfectly.

Hello sir.where are u located and the name of your shop

[@fredsaucier]

Hi I have a 2012 x5 50i and it's showing a p00018 camshaft position sensor code,I change the sensor and engine light still on with reduced power any ideas. Thanks love your videos

[@Zeiten]

@fredsaucier first of all get a better scanner p-codes are far from being specific and accurate for bmws. Camshaft position sensor has nothing to do with it usually, it’s possible you have an issue with vanos solenoid or vanos itself not functioning properly

[@fredsaucier]

@Zeiten Thanks wish I lived in California I'd be at your shop,your video was very impressive.
