As our motors get more miles on them, the VANOS system is becoming more if an issue. Any chance you would consider doing a DIY on replacing the central VANOS valves? I am seeing more posts on the bucking issues with these parts and the only videos are on the VANOS actuators located on the outside of the valve cover but no one has done one on the central valve. Just a thought while you have the valve cover off your car.
Hi , I did rebuild the vano on my E39 523i.... while the vano unit was removed I used a spanner and turned the crank a few turns...to many maybe 🤔, and the right spindle gear came out🥺, I have managed to put it back .... should I be worried before refitting the vano unit? Thank you
I changed these Vanos valves on two cars without removing the valve cover. You can get there with your hand and remove them. It's difficult, but faster and than taking apart half the engine.
@kern417 Great video and explanation, I have a question regarding the vanos actuator, and what seems to be the ever eluding Vanos Solenoid, am I correct in understanding that the B58 engine does NOT have Vanos Solenoids, I was able to find the actuators on the back, the error message I am geting is: "13070B VANOS, inlet, cold start not adjustable", I changed the actuators both the inlet and exhaust, but the error did not go away. HOWEVER, oddly enough, when the engines warms up the error has gone away several times. not sure where else to look. I have seen the solenoids everyone, but can't find them on the B58. Does the B58 have the VANOS Solenoids? thank you in advance.
Hey! While trying to solve my stuttering low rpm slow acceleration, ive tested the vanos position vs actual and i saw and issue there. How would i know if its the actuator (what i see most people replacing) or the valve itself? (ive also seen people cleaning the small "filter" it has, in some cases that filter was actually ripped out)
I have fault code "Combustion control, valve lift at idle" not sure of you've seen this code before any ideas on the fix? My pcv membrane split and was replaced but can't get rid of the fault.
I’m having vanos related issues on gen2 b58 but I’m not receiving a code the exhaust side degree angle bounces compared to its tagets on datalogs way more than intake side I’ve noticed that degree timing stays very high I am constantly over 100 degree angle with no codes. I have replaced the actuator on exhaust side and still same issues. Any advice or ideas on what it could be?
Hi mate, Getting 130715 code, inlet cam jammed. Only seems to come back in the mornings once cleared. Replaced actuators, any idea what could be issue please?😢
Hey bro awesome channel! Do you have any vids of you ripping that 600+ horsepower beast?????? I got a 2019 440i grancoupe xdrive. About to step into the game with a stage 1 tune. Do you suggest bm3 or mhd?
Bro I’m literally getting this code right valvetronic adjustment range ,error check range what should I do I just recently went big turbo stage 3 trans tune Pi reflex and a custom tune from sam
@@kern417 but how could it be damaged already and my car is still new thanks for the feed back I’m gonna watch the other one now just sucks I gotta pull it apart and I just upgraded
@@Jem_auto it can fail for a lot of reasons. Sometimes it just needs to be recalibrated with ISTA. It just depends. Make sure it's properly plugged in too.

Valvetronic is Different from Vanos. Here's How it works: ruclips.net/video/TDowVgxFckc/видео.html
Just found your channel. Really well done and useful videos. Best of all, it's just real talk without a bunch of acting and fluff. Thanks!
thanks for watching
Thank you Kern
Another fantastic video as always 🤘💯❤️
Another good one 👌🏼

Do gen 1 have this issue ?
did you end up doing it yourself?
Thanks man this is an excellent video !!
Just had to get my intake and exhaust solenoids replaced. Good thing I bought a warranty 😊
@kern417 when you replaced the actuator, did you go ahead and do both the intake and exhaust sides at the same time?
i didn't have to replace mine. if you're having vanos related codes then it will typically say intake or exhaust, so that tells you which one is bad.

They aren't called solenoids but there are central valves bolted to the center of the cam gears.
Thank you for the response and explanation. I can see that It's not as simple as just unbolting and replacing...

Hi guys on this engine there is no vanos bleeding like on other bmw models??

Could be the central valve. Have you changed any mods recently?
@@kern417 OTS MG flasher stage 1, but code appeared before that was put on but thought it went away with actuator change but it didn’t
Try replacing the central valve

Yes check my channel.
Both work well. I currently run mhd.
@@kern417 thanks!
Is it possible to throw the calibration off when servicing the vanos actuators?
It's based on oil pressure so not really
@@kern417 even the central valve theres nothing that can go wrong regarding calibration?
Is this the b58tu? If not, is the TU in the same spot?
My car is not a TU, but yes TU is in the same spot

You may need to replace the Valvetronic motor

It is spell Vanos but it is pronounced Wanus
