Gotta love bmw family we stick together there’s always a way for this cars just tools and the right ppl

[@ghettoviet]

I didn't know there was a recall for this, took me a year to figure out the issue but it was the diaphragm on the valve cover. Replaced new valve cover problem fixed.

[@Zeiten]

Live and learn😁

[@hanynowsky]

What was your mileage before replacement?

[@Ninimara952]

Was it blowing smoke and burning oil??? Also was the throttle sluggish ??

[@thecommenter7201]

PCV diaphragm has nothing to do with burning oil but it affects the accelaration performance.

[@brarautorepairs]

The PCV heater is replaced and not the PCV that is built into the valve cover. The replacement of the valve cover is the fix in your case. There is an aftermarket solution that requires you to cut open the diaphragm and replace it.

[@kingly71]

It’s the PCV diaphragm. I went the ghetto route and hacked mine off the top of the valve cover. Popped the Amazon Chinese part on with some silicone gasket maker… been 3 months or so with no problems.

[@EdGlez100]

I had to replace the valve cover myself first they will charge you $300 just for diagnostic then they charge you $1000 for labor part not included the part will cost you like around $800 the original part keep in mind that they charge you per hour so I decided to do the job myself

If you have an N51 engine and are dealing with this you can get a free valve cover gasket replaced under warranty as long as the car is below 15 years old or 150,000 miles. I got the pcv valve replaced under recall and the valve cover replaced under warranty at the same time. Completely free. Just come prepared with the info and they won’t ask any questions lol

Replace the valve cover. Integrated pcv took a shit or an air leak.

[@geogeo2551]

The whistle is the oil filter . Mine did the same. Oil filter was blown out and restricted flow causing it to whistle or whine !

[@sidewayzmike]

Funny, I just did an oil change on my friend car, and a few days later, came back whistling. I checked the oil cap as well, and observed excessive crankcase pressure. So, I sold the valve cover job. Knocking it out this week. Are you saying, pull the oil filter and inspect it? I can't remember what brand filter I installed, more than likely one of the 3 popular OE filter choices, not the factory one from bmw 😅

This should 1000% apply to every N55 e70, same exact junk design flaw yet they cherry pick the model they sold the least, it’s infuriating

[@miguelvega7769]

The crazy thing is they don’t even have a remedy for it yet😬😬since last year, BMW is slacking

[@Zeiten]

Bmw is just being bmw😂

[@720MotorWorks]

They do, I got the remedy available letter months ago, your car must be low on the list

[@720MotorWorks]

Basically the remedy is adding a harness with an inline fuse. This prevents the pcv heater valve from potentially melting and causing a short circuit and fire. Note that the recall is not for the pcv itself, but only for the heater valve

[@MrLOUTER94]

i still receive recalls for this from my dealership even though its already been done lol i wonder whos in charge of mailing them.

[@mq2825]

The recall is just a wiring repair, has nothing to do with the valve cover it’s self

[@Zeiten]

It has nothing to do with valve cover, it is a recall for wiring but the dealer replaces pcv valve heater that is located under intake manifold

[@mq2825]

The pcv heater actually had two recalls(select models)..they recalled the recall..original was 19v-273..new was 22v-119..got the genuine part from bmw for $8, & did it while doing the whole system, bcuz bmw is incompetent.
