If the system is not working properly, a fault code will be set. They can figure out what part or repair kit you need. If you just removed and installed the solenoids, nothing should go wrong, unless debris fell into the oil circuit. Sounds more like a sensor failing once it gets hot. - Casey at Pelican Parts. The engine sounds stiffled, like it's clogged . You don't want to shoot in the dark on this, get those codes and let's go from there. I dont feel that I have 150 HP. What is the actual P code number that is setting? - Nick at Pelican Parts. I have a BMW E90 with the N43B20. Just a note. Hopefully just low oil.- Nick at Pelican Parts, 2009 328I My SES light came on and is reporting lean codes for bank 2 oxygen sensor and a vanos solenoid mecanical failure. Now what can I do? - Nick at Pelican Parts. Hi Nick, I have a E93 2008 which has error code 2A99 Crankshaft Position Sensor; Outlet Camshaft; Correlation - Intermittent. Hi Nick. Thanks for the tip. No codes logged anymore. Engine runs smooth and has great power but now idles at around 1200 RPM. You are going to have check mechanical timing, once you confirm it is good, you will have to check the actuators ability to control movement as requested by the DME. ive been reading and searching online a lot of ppl had this stalling problems. No CEL or fault codes. Sounds off. You probably have a plugged crankcase breather, causing oil to be pushed out. Sounds like a fault for a circuit or wiring to the VANOS actuator solenoid. Hey Nick, 2009 335 e93. We ask that those who have not provided proof of full vaccination against COVID-19 to be properly masked. Possibly a bad DME or DME power or ground supply. What do you suspect? I'm not getting any check engine light or other dash lights, but there seems to be a kind of flat spot in acceleration around 3k-4k rpm with mildly degraded gas mileage. Is noise gone? replaced broken charge pipe and oil filter housing gasket and cap w/ no change as well. One of the simpler jobs I have attempted - as easy if not easier than changing one of the ignition coils. Check spark, fuel injector pulse and fuel pressure, volume, quality and engine compression.- Nick at Pelican Parts. Are the solenoids dirty again? Questions: are the vanos solenoids delicate? Any advice would be appreciated! When your engine doesnt start youll want to check the basics. Before messing with the cam, tried the cheaper possibility of gunked up solenoids. INPA shows that the Vanos does not move past 98 when value is 128. does it make an offset camshaft ? If it moves, mechanical timing is likely off. Hi! I'll have someone look into it. Areas of strength are politics, law, diplomacy, aristocratic and gentry family life, religion, gender and sexuality, the economy, the military and navy, colonial expansion and administration, and slavery and the slave trade. I am thinking it's the oil pump that has failed. That is as long as there is no item affecting the cat. Thanks. BMW doesn't make any of the ccv easy to get to. Can some one explain what this is? My car is the E90 step-tronic. That is a safe place to start. This is usually due to t he engine being run low on oil between oil services. hello I had the check engine light on diagnostic said Vanos intake, i cleaned it, still have the problem as "current". I would start by removing and cleaning the solenoids. If there is no debris, I wouldn't think it's cleaning that is helping. So, I am pretty sure that my solenoids are faulty. Any ideas? Could the codes just be a symptom of oil starvation? Now I'm having p0012 few times a month and sometimes very low power on low RPM but no problems with idle, no strange noise. What is the fuel trim doing at idle, 2500 RPM no load and a steady cruise? I have a 2008 328i and was getting an error code for intermittent camshaft signal. The bearing ledge is common, that diagnosis is tough without factory tools. If low, assume the oil pump or a bearing has failed. This could be a sensor issue or mechanical timing. was thinking of doing this myself first before spending 400+ bux at the dealer. Any help would be appreciated. I have seen this on 6-cylinder models. Jack, This could be due to debris in the system. Thoughts? - Nick at Pelican Parts, Thank you very much I will pressurize the cooling system Now what about engine running weak??? This will be your best bet when diagnosing. If clean, the issue may be the VANOS actuators. 2006 530i N52 made in 04/2005 with 161xxx miles I keep getting a 2a87 fault showing up through DIS only, telling me there is a Exhaust Solenoid issue. The Huntington has a rich and varied selection of European and American cartographic material that supports historical and geographical research and includes numerous rarities. My odb reader says no error are stored, and both times after restarting the engine the errors were gone. Oil I was using before was 5w30 and now I bought Motul 5w40. Or just rough running? Now there are the error codes "P13B6 and P130A". The SES light come and gone a couple times. How did you check timing and the camshaft ledge? If your intake temp is skewed from the other two that could be your issue! Could be an engine misfire. So, I wonder if its just an issue of cleaning the VANOS solenoids? i cleaned the slots where they go in and put new solenoids in. Have a 328i that turns over like it is going to start but immediately dies, only code is P0008. Also, I recently changed the starter motor, however, now when I try to startup the car, sometimes it doesn't start although I hear the click and I have to try a couple of times for it to succeed. If this was fine for about 3 months, then I'd think I could replaced both solenoids and hope for the best? I have a 2006 BMW 33oXI with the N52 motor, I have a check engine light code P0015 the light will come on and go out about 3 times per week. That was weird. I have an e87 with VIN PS32733. It does sound like an engine misfire. 2006 Z4 E85 3.0si. - Nick at Pelican Parts. When it comes on it reads P0015 "exhaust timing retarded". It could be faulty VANOS actuators or camshaft ledge issues. To me it seems kinda random. Thank you very much. 2. I have tried cleaning the vanos solenoids and the engine light was gone for about 3 days. You will need a puller or pulley extractor. Depends on the fault code. Only when I turn off and on quickly thank you again, it doesn't start? - Nick at Pelican Parts, Hi i have a 2006 bmw 325i im having issues with the vehicle at idle or when coming to a stop the rpm gauge will stumble and fall below 500rpms and the vehicle will shake like its going to stall out would a solenoid cause it to do that, Unlikely, unless you have timing jammed code. Could be the timing chain, possible worn guides. The oil level on the dashboard computer says its perfect. What vehicle are you working on?- Nick at Pelican Parts, catalytic converter. Hello, My 2006 e90 325i with 109,000 miles has an inconsistent idle in the mornings, after sitting overnight. Engine light comes on occassionally and car goes into limp mode the error codes are P1050, P1062 and P111a. Can faulty VANOS solenoids cause a no start? At cold start up my car has a rattling noise for about 2-4 seconds. I have had problems with rough idle. I have a 2007 BMW 328xi that have the code p0012 it will start than stall with the valvetronic motor connect it, But when I start the car without the valvetronic motor connected, but no power when gas it up. - Nick at Pelican Parts. My 2006 E83 was stalling at traffic lights. Now I am getting a very rough idle to where I have to put the car in neutral to keep it going at stops. You can try cleaning the VANOS solenoids. My car does not indicate a fault error of batt being low and suppose to recharge when inserted. Greetings, Can you tell me the exact size/thread type of the 10 mm bolt holding the VANOS units in place? I would say enjoy the car. These extraordinary and diverse materials are centered on 14 intersecting collection strengths. If debris is in the system. The chain guides may be worn from the oil consumption issue. Have a great day. ??? Can you send me the OBD P-codes or BMW fault codes with the last seven of your VIN? and are these kinds of fasteners universal? Took it to the mechanic and tells me that a vanos code is coming up. You can also with a pair of alligator ended jump cables test with 12 VDC no polarity neededthe solenoid open and close of the valve. Still sounds like an engine misfire. Thanks a lot again! How is the engine oil? ???? Car was also idle seemed fine but car was surging at rest. Did not have this problem prior to them being replaced.thanks for your help, Is the surge harsh? So what you're seeing may be normal. File Attachment: File Name: valvegear_.5-14.pdf File Size:1,205 KB valvegear.pdf valvegear_.5-14.pdf Although the noise still surfaces a little especially during hill ascend and I noticed the fuel economy is poor. Saturday 20th November 2021. Thx, Nick, Crankcase pressure is checked t the oil cap. Could be a module fault. Give our parts specialists a call at 1-888-280-7799. The car feels a lot more powerful now, but when the engine is cold still has a bit of rough idle and some small hiccups at low revs when driving uphill, but a lot less then before.

Hello, friends! No scan codes are present and the light resets after the car is turned off and on. - Casey at Pelican Parts. Should I expect this reset to improve something? I would check vanos actuator function using a BMW scan tool and mechanical engine timing. The Fora platform includes forum software by XenForo. Thanks in advance. As of now it still goes into engine malfunction mode and I'm running out of ideas of what to fix. Pulled the codes and am getting: P0135 O2 sensor heater circuit, P2243 O2 reference voltage circuit open, P0340 camshaft position sensor "A" circuit bank 1 or single sensor, P0365 camshaft pos. Where is the oil separator located on this car. My questions are: 1. what is the difference between solenoid and actuator, 2. Using your scan tool. - Nick at Pelican Parts. - Nick at Pelican Parts. I have a rough idle when warm which goes away if A/C is switched on higher rpm. With my obd scanner i can see that the highpressure fule pump have a pressure of 150 bar at the fulerail and the lowpressure 7,5 bar. Remove and clean it. I would check oil pressure to see if it is low. Here is a pro-level article on fuel trim (I found) and it has multi-parts, including testing. https://www.pelicanparts.com/BMW/techarticles/BMW-3-Series-E90/ENGINE-Crankcase_Breather_Valve_Replacement/ENGINE-Crankcase_Breather_Valve_Replacement.htm, https://www.pelicanparts.com/BMW/techarticles/BMW-3-Series-E90/FUEL-Eccentric_Shaft_Position_Sensor_Replacing/FUEL-Eccentric_Shaft_Position_Sensor_Replacing.htm, https://www.pelicanparts.com/BMW/techarticles/BMW-3-Series-E90/FUEL-Camshaft_Sensor_Testing/FUEL-Camshaft_Sensor_Testing.htm, https://www.pelicanparts.com/BMW/techarticles/BMW-3-Series-E90/FUEL-Fuel_Pump_Testing/FUEL-Fuel_Pump_Testing.htm, https://www.pelicanparts.com/BMW/techarticles/BMW-3-Series-E90/ENGINE-Nonresusable_Fasteners/ENGINE-Nonresusable_Fasteners.htm. No oil leak from solenoid seal although I did not replace it. - Nick at Pelican Parts. Can you swap tension spring from another location to eliminate that as a potential problem?

My Key fob is dead, my car battery also died. Unplug both coolant temp sensors, the fan should come on immediately. If I disconnect vanos solenoid there is no error codes and it is the same situation if I disconnect O2 sensorpre-catalyst. The Huntingtons principal architecture and planning holdings relate to Southern California. I would start by checking the DME for fault codes. Check for leaks at the intake boot. - Then I had both plugged back and suprisingly found that the idle is 90-95% back to normal, BUT found a bit of underpowered at around 2000-3000 rpm now. I only had 3 payments left to boot. Is it normal for vanos units to need replacement at this mileage? - Nick at Pelican Parts. The DME controls it and the max values are not published. Also wouldn't hurt to swap them side to side to see if the fault follow. At that time, I believed that All Synthetic oils are the same but just to keep them changed frequently. Are you idling the vehicle longer? When the engine is warm it does not happen. - As I have written below, things seems happened after my recent oil change. - Nick at Pelican Parts, please help both solenoids are stucked I can't take them out, If you have all the fasteners removed and the cover is free, the O-rings are stuck. P0012 & P0015. It could be displaying it wrong. the car is driving perfectly fine.

Copy and paste this code into your website. - Nick at Pelican Parts. The code appears to describe a describe a short or open in a solenoid for the front axle or all wheel drive system. You will have to TEST oil pressure. If you have too much movement, the guides are likely worn. I'm no mechanic - and I haven't even opened up the hood of my car yet to see what type of MAF sensor I have! If you have noise, check oil pressure. Try swapping the VANOS solenoids bank to bank. Call or send us an email for more information. VerticalScope Inc., 111 Peter Street, Suite 600, Toronto, Ontario, M5V 2H1, Canada. You may have something connected wrong. Hello Nick, if you recall from our previous conversation, I had issues with my BMW 318i N46 Engine. - But problem started after that. Sounds like the guides are worn or you have a faulty VANOS actuator. Thanks, The VANOS unit can't be cleaned. Have a good one too! Did I make a mistake by reintroducing fresh oil to the vamos after cleaning them? I will clean the Vanos as advised and revert if I have any question. - Nick at Pelican Parts, Thanks nick for ur quick response if I can not get it out using tools how hard would it be for me to take the cover off to access it is there a DIY for this thank u, That is part of the cylinder head, not a cover. oil pressure is likely the issue. https://www.pelicanparts.com/More_Info/ATSDSI1040.htm?pn=ATS-DSI1040&SVSVSI=MF57&DID=172948 - Nick at Pelican Parts. Same problem persits. I would have someone with an advanced BMW scan tool run a system test on the vanos actuators before assuming the ledge is faulty.

Anyone that can offer suggestions ?? Thank you! I wish I was getting a code so I could figure this out. Guy with meter had a look at it and couldnt fathom the warning light? Went to start it and same thing - cranks but no start. Could also be debris in the VANOS system. After a restart, it runs okay. I don't understand what you mean? - Nick at Pelican Parts. What fault code is stored? Unfortunately I had problems with the car from the beginning. Just took out both of the solenoids, cleaned them and switched places. JavaScript is disabled. Carb cleaner is unsafe to spray on an engine due to fire hazard. It's in bad shape found bearing and the cover of the pulley is pretty mangled up the pulley is about to detach from the AC stem Now my question is, can this pulley assembly be replaced hopefully in place, meaning without removing the AC unit from the motor Where can i locate this pulley/clutch assembly? I change the camshaft intake sensor and both solenoids Cleared the code, 2 days later it pops back up. Any idea what else it might be? Just before the error occurs the car has slower pickup between 1500 and 2200 rpms. But when I suspect one is faulty, I swap sides, if the fault follows the solenoids, I know the solenoid is faulty. It will have the procedure, special tools and torque specs. Oil level check using the display no dip stick situation why did BMW ever did that indicates OK. nothing to add. I appreciate your kind response. Which if the same, it can be a mechanical timing issue or faulty VANOS actuator. Code seems to occur less frequently after oil change. So, now after change the booth vanos solenoid and booth camshaft position sensor the engine light it just come 2 times and then it disappear again, what about the rpm? Hi Nick, 1 more update: - no error codes checked being scanned by a bluetooth OBD2 scanner w/ iPhone. so i clean up the electric plugs just incase and the throttle body . Please Help. Cold new vans solenoid be bad? I would not use any harsh cleaners. What do you think I should do? (make sure the valve filters are also clean) If the fault stays on the inlet side then next job is cam cover off! One more time thank you very much Regards Andrew, Thanks for sharing your experience. Mine was replaced not long ago, and I would like to try to clean it first and put it back in to see if it is ok. I did have the sensor replaced due to a broken gasket just under 1 yr ago by BMW dealer. Mechanical timing could be off, quite common on these engine for the timing chain guides to wear out. After two months with no light, the light came on again today. Check if an old O-ring is still in the engine. Thanks again. Any ideas on how long until the check engine light goes away, The fault will have to be gone for two consecutive trips, then it will go away on the next drive cycle. I would check mechanical engine timing. - Nick at Pelican Parts. https://wiki.bentleypublishers.com/display/tech/Check+Control+Message+Definitions+BMW+3-Series+E90+E91+E92+E93 - Nick at Pelican Parts.
