Watch M539 Restorations on N55. Had same issue but he replaced that cam bad adjuster which was making noise and issue was resolved.

Alright I'll check that out thanks! Currently hoping it goes away with oil pressure as I've read that in a couple places.

That's the locking pin inside of the vanos unit... I'd replace it. These should be tight and play free. Any play can result in engine lag or vanos codes.

I am so impressed by your knowledge, skills, and dedication. Watching all these F10 videos has been an awe inspiring treat. Thank you so much. Very educational and unique. Eagerly looking forward to the final video(s) where you bring it all back together and bring it back to life. Good luck. Good work. And I hope you are feeling better.

I have the same exact f10 N55, which is amazing for oil leaks. I definitely need cleaning underneath my f10 looks just about the same as yours. i love the car, i truly enjoy your series keep it up bro
@ShawnzeyRacingАй бұрын
Yea for sure the 2 most common oil leaks are from the valve cover gasket and the oil filter housing and cooler. I'd recommend checking those out if you have oil leaks they are very common. And thanks for the love I really do appreciate it!
@f2ccuАй бұрын
@ShawnzeyRacing oil fliter housing is fine but i suspect the gaskest cover it leaks and makes lil smoke in the engine bay and you can smell it when the car gets hot i need a fix for that for sure
@f2ccuАй бұрын
@ShawnzeyRacing it's not a big leak i keep checking the oil level it's fine but i just would like to fix it one day

I had the same thing on my previous F10. My valve cover gasket had a leak and the leak would drip on the exhaust manifold and id get an oil smell inside the cab of the car!

@adamturowski89483 ай бұрын
40:17 It will jump like that because the spring inside the VANOS variator is not strong enough to hold the valve springs below the camshaft. Normally you have oil inside, not air and oil is not compressible.

@Jimmyvb984 ай бұрын
He indeed had this kind of problem recently. If you look at his third last video (so part 2 of the Maserati), the "Looking inside a 187k mile Ferrari engine", starting at 31:40, he encounters a somewhat the same problem, a clunking noise from one of the actuators. I know it's a completely different engine, but if you keep watching for a bit, you'll see that he fixed it with another used actuator. So I think you did right buying a new one, with the engine in the current state it is still a quick swap. Just make sure it is an OE actuator, aftermarket parts and BMW's don't go together nicely.
@ShawnzeyRacing4 ай бұрын
For sure! I bought a newer style BMW one so hopefully they are better with the newer design! Appreciate you commenting!

its normal for that cam gear to click since it has no oil,when oil fills in it will not click
@ShawnzeyRacing4 ай бұрын
You know that was my exact thought. But a bunch of other comments told me it was bad... So I ordered another one just to be safe. So I'll put it on but I'm glad someone else had this thought and not just me.
