Does this work for a 4 cilinder, I heard wih a 4 cil. You need to remove the intake man.?
Fast forwarding the difficult part really helped
🤣🤣
I’ma be doing this next weekend 5yrs later n u still helping people out with this video timeless
anyone else watch thse videos even when they dont need car advice? i plan on coming to cali and if youre still there when i come im gunna come check out the shop!
Clutch N' Stuff ha ha that made me laugh i do all the time
On 318i it’s different. It’s the 4 cylinder engine.
Thank you, man. Whenever I have trouble with my E46 and I resort to google and see your face I know I'll soon get the car up and running again. All of your videos are so informative and helpful, keep up the good work!
Thanks a ton for making the video. I just changed my CCV valve or PCV valve yesterday it took me a long time but with the help of your video made it so much easier. nice job
Thank you for the video! Got through this step by step. Really tight fit with the new connectors, but lubricated lightly with oil and things started snapping together.
Great DYAF (do yourself a favor) DIY demonstration. Thank you. I successfully did this 3 years ago on my 02 - 325xi using the Cold Climate version. In the end I had so much trouble fitting it in with the bulky sleeve, I finally tore it off. It worked fine... until now with another 50,000+ miles of driving (milage now 293,000); seems I need to do it again as I'm aiming for the 300,000 mile mark.
Damn dude you’re worth a lot of money, you know your shit, keep up the good videos. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks man!
After doing my own smoke test, I have a huge amount of smoke coming out of the bottom of the oil separator/dipstick hose, very helpful video on getting it out!
Hey man did this solve your problem? I have the same issue and I’m planning on doing this exact job next week lol. Hoping for the best 🤞
Yeah, theres quite a few things to remove and get out of the way and I had to fight the hose a bit but it's not the worst thing, I had another small vacuum leak around the DISA O-ring and it was easy and cheap to replace the Oring. Oddly I was still getting the engine service light, turns out BMW doesn't like certain aftermarket O2 sensors so I bought 2 Bosch units (OE
M) and haven't seen the engine light since. Glad I took care of the vacuum leaks though.
@@Jason-gy2ux that’s good news and also reassuring haha. I’m gonna be tackling mine today, wish me luck lmao.
@@mattfairfield9103 I own 4 BMWs and they really aren't as bad as most of the internet seems to think.
thanx for the video..helped me a lot saved me lot of time not to remove intake....after repair did smoke test and found 1 valve cover gourmet seal was missing under washer causing leak and ruff start up
Damn all those parts you took off I think I'll probably forget to put some parts back in I didn't think it would be that difficult 😮 I'm going to give it a shot
Thank you I got my bmw running great again no more engine light
TIP: Delete the brittle, failure prone, plastic, OEM CCV and replace it with an oil catch can and PCV. The increased vacuum seals the M54 low tension piston rings better, which leads to a more responsive engine and catches all of the crap that the OEM CCV drains back in to your oil pan. I did this mod several months ago and the difference is night and day.
Jordan, thanks for that info. I'm actually in the middle of doing this job myself. Where did you get the upgraded parts, if you don't mind me asking?
How about details?
Curious as well sir. A response would be very much appreciated
Thanks very much for the videos, watching a couple of times and using them as a reference as I worked gave me the confidence to tackle this job myself saving me who knows how many $$$$$'s in mechanic charges.
I’ve learned a lot about E46 watching your videos thanks .. I took ez way out and but catch can on instead, but I’ve end up with Worst problem because oil think sucked out my rear main seal because of too much Vacuum pressure. I have Ccv ordered now hope stops oil leak from rear main seal ..
Thank you soo much!! Replaced in about 2 hours your videos part 1 & 2 helped dramatically.
Thank you for this vid, had a customer who pushed this job onto me without much euro-car experience and your vid helped to figure out just what the hell i am looking at with this plastic-heavy monstrosity. 🤙
"Push the two tabs in, Or break em" LOL:)
I remember doing this in my BMW convertible. It was a damn pain. Whoever engineered that damn plastic part in the middle of the engine needs to be kicked in the face !!!! Word of advice, make sure you use OEM Parts. Stay away from the Chinese crap. It will get brittle and break very soon i broke mine during installation cuz it was so cheap
Second the OEM CCV kit. I bought aftermarket and got parts I wouldn't even install--purchased OEM.
This video is great 😁 have you ever thought about adding a check list in the description? It would be really usefull
Damn it.........$850 or pay really REALLY REALLY close attention to this video
Or delete it
@@troika101 If you're saying delete the CCV then you don't understand what it does. It is not an emission device that "robs" you of horsepower. If you delete it you will cause oil leaks as crankcase pressure has nowhere to go except to push past various seals.
@@troika101 might as well do a spark plug delete while you're at it
@@Dave-in-MD Delete it and build your own ccv system.
Thank you so much! You made this job easy and saved me lots of money! My lean codes are gone!
I did this job about 6 months ago. Seriously the hardest thing was taking off and putting on some of the boots because the clamps if they have never been changed are in a place from the factory its very hard to undue. I swear I spent maybe 2 hours just trying to feel with my fingers how to get the clamps off one small twist at a time.
Love videos bro. I've only had my e46 for 6 months and you have already saved me quite a bit of time and trouble. Keep 'em coming. They are appreciated.
Yikes that was like 20 steps more than I expected but much appreciated anyway
Can you list the tools you used for this? I'm about to do this myself in my garage
Hi. Just want to thank you for doing this video. I done mine today. Not a bad job yeah a bit fiddly but worth doing yourself if you got patience lol. Thanks again for the Video.
thats a hell, i think i will take it to the mechanic😂
I recommend atp at-205 for all the plastic to revive it an last longer
heys shoplife thank you for the video I was just curious, could you access the ccv when you remove the manifold while your doing the hard coolant pipe job?
Thank you for the diy! it really helped me a lot!
On 9:36 I’m so confused about that part. Took the rest of but that’s just bugging me
I broke the plastic bracket the holds the cooling lines and the fuel line. I'm going to zip tie them back in place. See any problems with that?
going to be doing it this week, any advice before starting the project?
I remained with few bolts in my hand...don't remember where they're coming from. Hopefully it's going to drive without them.
replaced entire pcv system including purge valve and connection from purge valve to intake manifold, secondary air pump and piersburg check valve, upstream o2 sensors and disa valve. trying to eliminate p2440 cannot figure it out comes up every cold start still. any ideas for me?
Nice bro. I was going to take the intake off but hell no..that's way way lot easier..
Can I replace only bottom drain hose that goes to dipstick and oil pan and do it from underneath without removing intake boots and a lot of top parts like DISA valve, throttle body...Car is 2006 with 90k miles maintained super good. I am planning to brake of tabs on the top and pull down and pry out bottom part with screwdriver and pull up. Than just fit new hose(cold weather). The bottom one was only one leaking, car was garaged and rarely driven in winter.
BAM! 😂
Thank you very much sir
Hello,
Thanks so much for this video as I used it for guidance replacing mine. Found the source of the error codes and got cleared but I noticed I lost MPG? Any ideas or recommendations?
You should do more e90 models as most e90 are approaching 100000 miles.
I broke that plastic tube who's connected to the valve/camshaft cover, can i run my bmw eith it like that a period till i can change it?
Engine will run?
I ll have oil loss or something?
I have a question I'm looking too upgrade my halo light and fog lights to LED'S what do you recommend I have a 2009bmw x5 xdrive48i appreciate any help thks
Why is the 90° bend connected to the ccv on the one you ripped out? Was that an original or did someone install it the wrong way?
Thanks For the info Brother. Great Video.
First I’m gunna go ahead and leave a comment. Now I will go ahead and like as well. After that I will also go ahead and subscribe.
BAM!!
@ShopLife TV
In my e46 I don't have a cowl connected to my Air Box, could that be another reason for the Vacuum Leaks?
No
Great job credit where credits do very nice
Hi, My bmw E83 crankcase vent valve went bad with pressure in engine & blow out my valve cover gasket. Do you think it could have damage any other seals?
Where exactly is the second nut on the throttle body at 5:25 I couldn’t see where u reached
Can you please do a oil catch can vid Nathan’s or the 50s kid doesn’t have enough detail
Hi there, nice video. One question though: This video can be used for a E87 2006 118i with the N46 engine? thanks in advance
just did mine my car drives like a brand new car all over again plus I didn't stall like it use to anymore
i know this is a hella late reply bruh but what exact symptoms were you getting? i got a P0171 code and my car has a major power loss and anytime i push the car it stalls out and the traction light, eml, and brake light come on. I checked my CCV both hoses look very bad but i don't feel any holes in it but would still like to know which symptoms you exactly were experiencing
Excellent video. Thank you
I have the 02 325ci, crank no start, overheated one day so I shut it down , and went to start it up and crank no start, I hear fuel pump, I have fuel pressure, I did a cylinder wash down and sounded like it fired some but still no start! Any suggestions guys!!!! Thanks in advance
If the car is burning to much oil 1L every 800 km is it then to late to change the ccv system ?
to change the dipstick i have to drain the oil of the engine or this job can be done without drain the oil?
Great videos! Is the CCV the same as a CVV? Does a 1995 E36 M50 motor, nonCali, have the same feature? Also, does a compression range dry of 210- 219 psi sound high for a 200K mile motor? Thanks
Is this the same procedure for an e83 m54 engine?
Yesss about to do this on mine bro! good looks!
ElAhmadGaming what symptoms you getting?
just the noise of a vacuum leak im trying to make it 100% vacuum leak free haha makes it run better as well
Outstanding Job!!!
I have same problem but is it 1,8 engine? How many kw?
Bam!
Do you have any videos or where I can find all the vacuum lines, have a2003 x5 with 100k on it, it’s set for a few years, I got it running I’ve changed everything but vacuum lines and ABS AND breaks? I e look EVERYWHERE!!! #NEEDALILHELPINVA!!!
Is this similar to an x5 30i 2003 engine could I go about it the same way?
What if my car doesn't have a ccv type system like this one?
You're excellent!
9:00 does anyone know what this cable is called? Broke mine by accident, need to replace
So your using the cold weather ccv? I wish I watched your video first before buying the regular ccv.
The cold weather is considered an upgrade for whatever reason. It has insulation
Hi, please tell me how can I open a blocked bonnet, I need to change the oil and to add some water...thanks.
Awesome! Thanks so much for these videos!
I have an X3. Blows smoke like a chimney. Rough idle at cold start and smooth idle after warming up. No over heating just smoke. Is this the culprit?
Joseph Fahie most likely
Did you ever find out what was the problem? My 04 330ci is doing the exact same thing.
is that a fairlady Z in the back m8 ? good vid like !
Can you do one on a e90 328i xdrive 2011
Hello, I need your help really. I own e46 330i 2003 automatic with 1 error at diagnostic. I've searched all the information on the internet, including the E46 forum and found your videos where you're talking about vacuum leaks. So I'm using bmw 1.4 scanner and have codes CB[203] and CA[202], E3[227] and E4[228] from the 2 oxygen pre-cat sensors(they're new)control limit, mixture limit rich or deviation too great, deviation rich, low fuel level signal and get randomly misfires, decrease in power, rough idle and high gasoline consumption. When I unplug air flow sensor everything is just perfect, so I think the problem is vacuum leak and due to this the system is adding too much fuel and get this codes and problems. Can you help me with an advice, is this a vacuum leak and where should I search or the problem may be the air flow sensor itself or i don't know.. The air flow sensor is showing 13kg/h at idle 700rpm which i think is normal. My oil consumption is 1ltr per 7000km which is pretty high i think.
Is this also known as a Oil seperator?
Can a bad ccv cause rough idle and misfires?
Are you into Doing CCV Delete And Running an Oil Catch can I did it on my E39 seems to run Cleaner no oil vapor inside my intake system
So it's been 2 years and no replies! I bought my first BMW a couple months ago and love but.... some things are over-engineered and the ccv is one of them. I've considering doing the similar thing using a mopar v8 PCV(valve) and running it to an oil separator(catch can) and running a drain libne back to the motor. It will need to be mounted high... firewall?.. Also considering German Solutions $500 gizmo germanautosolutions.com/store/german-auto-solutions-m54-ccv-replacement-kit/ .
And there is a set-up using half of pan evacuation kit such czcams.com/video/NPkmzAa2uFE/video.html or www.ebay.com/itm/Crankcase-Evacuation-System-Kit-Evac-PCV-Chrome-Zinc-SBC-BBC-Race-350-454-CHEVY/142189225900?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131003132420%26meid%3D285444bf719348dc8991a6ef505efdd4%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dag%26sd%3D193161522261%26itm%3D142189225900%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851.
Hello ShopLifeTV, I have a question about my 2006 BMW x3. I have a hissing sound from engine area while the vehicle is running started a week ago, the sound is increase when I put climate control fan termed high. My question is a vacuum leak making that kind of sound? Thank you!
probably the valve cover gasket, try tightening the oil cap and see if it goes away.
What does the ccv do then and is it any thing to do will my 525i using oil
Hi just want to ask something, i do have an e46 with p0313,p0183,p0185,p0171,p0174
Codes. Car right now is hard to start dies after stepping off gas pedal. It stalls i recently change camshaft sensor intake.still no change.then i change SP 2 out 6 right now and found oil in SP cylinder number two (also burnt).might valve cover gasket leak.also the fuel filter by previous owner didnt change Fuel filter.considering also this.anyone could give me an advise? Just to add ccv hose to valve cover broke and previous owner just connect it by heater hose.considering changing new ccv (found smudge of oil inside hose). Battery is good checking via multimeter also alternator works. Thank you very much.
While I was replacing the valve cover my breather hose crumbled. What is the easiest way to replace just the breather hose? Thx.
Jonathan McDermott. I hope by now you have fixed your car. If not to answer the question, you better off replacing the whole kit. It's all just as brittle
Could that be the reason my car shakes in the morning when cold and keeps saying cylinder 5 cut off? Cause I replaced all the cylinders but keeps shaking and says cylinder 5
Jorge Avila check the coilers
What bolts are attached to the PCV?!
I have 2006 325i e90 is it the same
I got a 2002 bmw 5 series similar to this blowing smoke has a misfire with low fuel code going threw oil fast runs rough any tips on how to properly inspect it also is it called a oil seperator aswell ?
Any updates ? Have the same year and model doing the same white smoke and only when I start the car and sometimes leaving stop signs, figured it was the ccv since it was doing the vacuum test
Estou vendo do Brasil
So I think what I have learned from this is that I shouldn't do it this way. I should remove the intake and do it right instead of breaking everything
How many mm the diameter of little o-ring?
Would this cause a ses light?
Merci pour la vidéo
Would you recommend BMW CCV or aftermarket, if aftermarket which Brand?
OEM
Hi, I have a question. I drive 325ci 2006 (M54), it is canadian spec. I want to change CCV, so as per all instructions i found i need to buy valve, 4 pipes and o-seal ring for oil stick. On the realoem i found out that there are 2 different types of CCV are available - Canada national version and regular one for cold climate. What is the difference? Both of them have Styrofoam cover. Can I buy regular one and install it, or I have to install Canada national version only? I'm so confused and do not want to order parts, disassemble half of the engine and see that this parts don't fit =))) No any info about that in google. Thanks
Anton Novikov ....Hi, the cold climate CCV version IS the Canadian spec. They are identical. The warm weather kit (without the padding) was not available on cars for the Canadian market (because we're always cold dammit!) but was for other markets (like the US) with the padded version an option. (Thus the differentiation.). You can use the non padded version when you do the replacement...but I wouldn't. The padding does limit internal condensation and prolongs the life of the system. It's a two day DIY so you don't want to do it twice!
Hope this helps
will this part cause a oil leak
Hey so I changed the ccv on my e46 and now it doesn't want to start, I went back to make sure everything was put on correctly and it was. Do have any advice on fixing this? Could it possibly be a blown fuze? thanks in advance.
check if you have connected the crank case sensor cable. mine has the same problem and i forgot to plug in the cable :P
What was the problem?
Could you do this for my 2001 525i?? Let me know I will take it to you, I am also in CA.
What the... i have 330D and it was 5min job to replace oil breather.
