Vanos System for BMW 5 Series E34 (1987-1995)

Clear BMW chassis

Improper VANOS function will cause reduced power and poor fuel economy. The VANOS system is BMWs version of variable valve timing and can be found on the intake and or exhaust camshafts. The system uses a pair of electrically actuated solenoids that direct the flow of pressurized oil to the VANOS gears. Depending on engine requirements the VANOS system can advance or retard timing as requested by the ECU.

The BMW M60 and M62 engines found in many 5 series, 7 series, and X5's has two major weak points over time - Vanos seal and timing guides. The timing guides, being the most noticeable and damaging, can be very expensive to have a shop repair when trying to get back on the road. If you have some mechanic abilities and can follow instructions you could get this job done for a lot less, but you'll need the right tools for the job.

This Schwaben kit features everything you need in one case to perform either job or both making timing service easy and accurate.

Never worry about buying another M60 or M62 timing tool kit again with our LIFETIME REPLACEMENT program - included with your purchase!

Tools included:

Camshaft locking blocks
Flywheel locking pin
Timing chain tension block
Upper chain tension locks
Timing wheel alignment tools
Vanos adjustment socket
Vanos solenoid socket
