Thank you so much for this video. I replaced the intake cam sensor. That wasn’t it. I had a code for missing cylinders and an oil leak from the valve cover gasket. So I set out to change the valve cover gasket, VVT sensor, plugs and coil packs. Got it all back together and same issue, just like yours. Rough idle and surging idle and would sometimes die at a stop. This came on all of a sudden. Then I saw your video of cleaning the two VANOS cylinders. So I did. The car runs great. Smooth idle with good acceleration and no lag. Thank you for this video it was awesome.

Showing the symptoms beforehand would also be helpful. Great after work though. Thanks for the video.

Had the P0012 and the P0015 faults after I changed the valve cover gasket. Watched this video, had the vanos cables swapped. Swapped 'em back and no issues! Thanks man! 07 335 N54 here.

I used and watched this video like 6 or 7 times and I cleaned both vanos solenoids in my 2009 bmw 328i. I did finally get it done. It took me a lot more time than you to do it because of my lack of proper tools and my experience working on vehicles. I did it though and just plugged them back in. Fingers 🤞 that it fixed my issue. About to start her up now. 😂

If you have P0012, P0015, or P1554 (all related to camshaft/vanos), change your oil and filter first before trying anything else. Make sure your oil level is correct. Low/bad oil can cause these to trip very easily!

[kennethhetrick]

Can't thank you enough for posting these BMW video's...Thanks

[scubari]

2007 523i. A quick cleanup on both valves and problem solved, engine idles now smoothly, much better that before and no more fault code, for now anyways. Thanks for the video

Hey Nathan bought a 07 x3 with n52 that was doing same thing.  Slow to come on the throttle and rough idle at stop light.  Saw this vid and figured it's an easy job for me and boom. Drives like a different car now.  Now have a responsive throttle and smooth idle. If prob returns, I will replace them.  MPG may be better too.  Thanks for great vid.  - Dave

Great tip on where the connectors go. 3:18 in the vid. I had them swapped ><, which threw both codes, swapped them and voila, bye bye codes. Thanks for the thoroughness once again.

Huge thank-you 2006 BMW X3 m same symptoms cleaned them out, idle is perfect and it feels like it has more power than brand new then when I got it. It even starts up super quick no problems

[JAMAEL]

Your guides are the best. Always informative. Thank you for helping the community save money. Keep up the great work.

[troysmith]

Totally helped me fix my car brother thank u so much!! Thousands saved!

[alex-jrqh]

I had the same codes and on the inside of the oil filter cap the cartridge was missing, that goes inside of the oil filter and I had to buy a new oil filter cap. That fixed my issue.

[davejack]

Legend status achieved . Been a mechanic 7 years and this was the first time i came across this problem. looked up online and came across this vid... Going the the shop shortly to give'er a try ill let u know!

[kamilkuzniar]

Fantastic tip. I own a E91 325i, after oil and filter change rpm jumped between 1100 and 550 and finally died. I did what you advised and it worked perfectly. Magic! Thank you very much! I’m your new subscriber 👌💨

[mm-ojib]

I had the same problem and I found out my oil filter cage was missing so i installed a new one and it fixed it

[brandonacosta]

I have 06 325i with 150k miles and the check engine light on. Code P0012. Intake vannos solenoid. But, took both vanos solenoids out like you said and cleaned them. Boom. Went to get a smog test today and passed. If I could buy you a beer I would. Thanks for the video dude much appreciated!!

[bennycasillas]

Thank you for the video! After watching and doing the work on my car I could tell an obvious difference in the driving performance. I didn’t clear any codes so idk if that is the fix needed to clear my light. It’s saying I still need to change the cam sensor. But thank you!

[bonkeydollocks]

You hit the nail on the head there, BMW's are not the problem, it's the clowns who do not know how to fix them.

[GoDragon]

I replaced solenoids, still throwing code.
Finally I changed the oil, problem solved!
