Vanos System for BMW 3 Series E93 (2007-2013)

BMW S65 4.0L Vanos Covers 7075 provide a robust replacement for the factory plastic covers, which are known to fail over time. These high-performance Vanos covers snap on securely, offering a precise fit to eliminate vibration and prevent chafing of the engagement dogs.

• High-Strength Construction: Machined from premium 7075 aluminum for superior durability and strength.
• Corrosion Resistance: Anodized finish ensures long-lasting protection against corrosion.
• Perfect Fitment: Designed for an exact fit to avoid issues such as vibration and chafing.
• No Timing Tools Required: Easy installation with no need for engine timing tools.

The VANOS system on your N51, N52, and N54 engine controls the valve timing inside the engine. The system is hydraulically operated based on instructions from the engine computer. It's very complex and BMW has not yet perfected the system. The VAN0S solenoid is the actuator that takes instruction from the ECU and activates the VANOS unit on the front of the engine. When the solenoid is failing (or failed) you can end up with a rough running engine, misfires, bad fuel economy, lack of power, and more. It should trigger multiple fault codes and a check engine light for misfires, camshaft control, VAN0S solenoid, boost pressure control, and maybe others. It's important to thoroughly troubleshoot fault codes but VAN0S solenoids are a known issue with these engines.

The VANOS solenoids are located on the front of the engine and may be replaced without removing many other components. In some cases, you may be able to remove the suspect one, clean it, reinstall, and reset your fault codes. If your fault codes come back it's a strong indication that a replacement is required. Or you can buy the new solenoid and replace instead of doing the work twice.

VANOS solenoid for the intake and exhaust are the same part number. Order 2 if you want to replace them both.

When doing any sort of repair or maintenance there is no replacement for genuine factory parts. Turner Motorsport carries the Genuine BMW brand with pride and has the parts you need to complete your next project with confidence.

We recommend replacing the solenoid sealing gaskets as well when replacing the solenoid. You can find these under T#363393
