If you're not sure if your Vanos seals are bad then the only question you need to answer is if you've replaced them. Every unit from the factory came with the same failure prone o-rings and seals, even the re-manufactured units you can still get today. The only real fix is by replacing the seals and o-rings with material that is built to last in the oiled, extreme temperature environment found in these kits. 

A premium product replacement with easy to follow instructions makes rebuilding your Vanos unit a must. Even thought the power loss is barely felt it's the opposite result once you replace the seals, every car that gets rebuilt ends up wowing the customer and all of them saying they didn't realize what they lost. 

There are a number of symptoms that will plague your car as a result of these failing seals such as erratic idle, engine hesitation, stalling, and increased fuel consumption to name a few. If you've been chasing down any of these symptoms with no fix then this could be your issue.

If your vehicle has started leaking coolant around the intake area and it is not the pipes, it is probably the valley pan.

This URO replacement has a high temperature and chemical resistant FKM Fluorocarbon Viton® rubber gasket to reduce the chance of leaks and increase the life of the gasket. This valley pan also features a gasket retention step to keep the gasket in place during installation and also reduce the chance of the gasket blowing out from pressure.
