After the introduction of the M52TU/M54 engines, BMW observed an uptick in CCV-related issues, especially in cold regions. Vehicles operating in extremely low temperatures often encountered a blockage in the CCV dipstick hose, leading to elevated crankcase pressure and visible blue smoke from the exhaust. To address this issue, BMW introduced cold climate-specific hoses with foam insulation, preventing condensation and facilitating quicker oil warm-up. This kit incorporates top-notch reproduction cold climate hoses to ensure optimal CCV performance across all weather conditions.

The crankcase ventilation valve, known as the oil separator, PCV, CCV, or crankcase pressure regulator valve, plays a vital role in redirecting oil from your vehicle's intake system back into the engine oil pan. This system comprises numerous plastic and rubber hoses, prone to damage due to prolonged exposure to chemicals and heat.

Designed to tackle or prevent impending CCV system failures, this kit includes four foam-insulated hoses made from durable plastic capable of withstanding heat fluctuations and chemical exposure. Additionally, a new ventilation valve is included for a comprehensive and long-lasting repair solution.

Signs indicating the need for crankcase ventilation system replacement include:

Whistling sounds from the intake manifold, caused by crankcase pressure venting through holes in the CCV hoses. Blue smoke emitting from the tailpipe, indicating oil consumption. Excessive oil usage. Milky or yellowish buildup under the oil cap, suggesting condensation due to ventilation valve malfunction. If you're experiencing misfires, lean fuel codes, decreased fuel efficiency, or noticeable oil consumption, it's advisable to overhaul your crankcase ventilation system. Opt for this reliable system from Febi-Bilstein for a repair that meets factory standards and ensures consistent performance.

The camshaft position sensor is essential for assisting the engine DME by monitoring the camshaft's position. The data from this sensor is key to optimizing ignition timing and ensuring smooth engine performance.

Often referred to as the CMP sensor, this component is crucial for the overall functionality of the powertrain. A failing camshaft position sensor can cause a range of issues, including engine stumbling, hesitation during acceleration, power loss, and even starting difficulties or complete failure to start.

Optimize your vehicle's performance and shield crucial components with the Mishimoto Compact 2-Port Baffled Oil Catch Can. This innovative solution effectively separates oil particles from PCV/CCV air using a 50-micron bronze filter, ensuring defense against oil blow-by for your intercooler, intake system, and vital parts. Constructed with a patented billet 6061 aluminum can sealed with Viton™ O-Rings, this catch can guarantees both durability and effectiveness.

Equipped with a universal mounting bracket, it allows adaptable installation and comes complete with two CNC-machined aluminum 1/2" barbed hose fittings. With an enhanced 3 oz internal capacity, service intervals are prolonged, while its fully serviceable filter and can ensure enduring functionality.

Engineered for safety in pressurized applications, the internal air diverter enhances oil separation by amplifying air turbulence. Available in black, red, or polished finishes, this catch can preserves proper octane levels, reducing potential detonation and promoting extended engine life.

The product package includes the Compact 2-Port Baffled Oil Catch Can, two Aluminum 1/2" Barbed Fittings, and a Universal Mounting Bracket, all backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
