      Hi! I've question for you. I've got BMW Z4 2003, 2,5L. The problem is that when you push gas pedal hard, car accelerating, but when it comes to 3000 rpm engine goes to "emergency mode" (I don't know what is called, RPM jumps from 1000 to 1500 and back). If don't push gas pedal hard - it runs good. I've change intake pipe already and cleaned idle control valve. Errors shows - MAF sensor and idle valve. What would you recommend to do?

    I can’t believe you didn’t start it up at the end. It was still a very good detailed video of how to remove and clean and reinstall the idle valve and it shows removal of the disa valve pretty well as well. Good job on that.

    I have a 2005 BMW X5 which was throwing the 4X4 / brake /eml codes and going into limp mode.
    The suggested fix to try was to clean the idle control valve. Your video was excellent and very easy to follow.
    After cleaning the valve - and clearing the codes everything is running great! Cleared up a bit of a rough idle as well! This was especially helpful to me as I am in Mexico and finding a good mechanic with BMW experience is tough!

    So my car would start in one tumble, but would die immediately, giving it some gas would help, but the moment you let off the gas, the car died immediately. I have the weird little 6 cylinder M52b20 in my e46, but the procedure was identical on my car. I removed the ICV and it looked clean, there didn't appear to be any real carbon buildup in it, but when I shook it, it was solid as a rock. Sprayed the crap out of it with Carb Cleaner, used damn near the whole can, it took quite a bit of spraying before it came loose, and the amount of crap lodged somewhere inside there that was locking it up was shocking for how clean it looked before.
    Your instructions are excellent, reinstall was a breeze, would be shocked if it took me more than 5 min for what I thought would be a daunting task. A little water on the fittings as lube goes a long way and makes it super easy to fit it all back together.
    This was the source of my problem, and your instructions fixed it. I don't think this car has ever idled this smooth, even when I bought it, I thought it was smooth before, it's ridiculously smooth now. Thank you so much man, you've saved me thousands of dollars and endless headaches, I'm so grateful, thank you.

    Hi Zeit
    Thanks for small reply. I’ve recently cleaned my control valve and prior to removal and inspection, it’s surprisingly in a perfect condition the fact that mileage has reached 300 plus for a 2004. This is my third BMW I’ve owned, E36 320i, E36 325i but I’ve always have a soft spot for the first generation X5 especially with the M54B30 version. Just easy to maintain and so reliable. I would like to own a E39 which is what you have purchased recently and the leather seat as you mentioned is in perfect condition.

    @fjwong7337 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Bimmer Zeit: Thanks for the encouragement. The Disa, icu, and throttle body cleaning job went smoothly; though very time consuming. Would like to share my experience. 1. Disa: the o-ring is not really an o-ring, it's glued on, very tight. Therefore no official BMW part. Some after market vendor in EBay, but O'Reilley doesn't carry it. It's a pain to pick and scoop out the broken (easily) ring, as it split into small pieces. So easier would be to use gasket maker to paste over the existing (flattened) ring. 2. it would be easier to remove the icu with the inside boot removed first. 3. in my case to remove the inner boot hose (with the 2 screws turned downward) was really a pain and tested my patience and lots of time. 4. While at it, why not also clean the throttle body? Overall, it patted myself for a job well done!

    • @BIMMERZEITT

    I have a question. Will an idle valve on a E83, 2.5, 24 valve straight 6 cylinder with 160,000 miles on it be the reason the engine idles at 900 rpms in park and in drive with the brakes on. I don’t know what the idle for that engine is and I will look it up but I know from the clunk the automatic transmission makes when downshifting 900 rpms is to high.

      Vanos can be removed and rebuilt with new seals. Search m54 vanos seals or rebuild kit. They wear out over time.

    Having a rough idle on start and not great acceleration on my 2000 e46. I replaced the pre-cat 02 sensors, and am now getting a P0340 camshaft position sensor. I wonder if this is why? with your e54, you didn't have to remove the airbox & MAF?

    What’s the difference in this and the ccv valve test? Are both of these for lean conditions bank 1 and 2? How do you know which one to do?

    • @BIMMERZEITT
      @BIMMERZEITT  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Kris, yes this is the same process on all M54 engines. The only difference is the slight change in the airbox designs between models.

    Good morning. Does this video also apply to a 2005 530i E60 M54 engine? Or is the idle control valve in a different location on those?

    • @donnymoore03
      @donnymoore03 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Does anyone else know the answer to the question above? Also, does the 2005 530i E60 M54 have a rubber grommet like the one in the video which attaches the idle control valve to the intake manifold?

    @the92hoe ปีที่แล้ว

    I was removing my idle control valve to clean it, and as i was pulling it out the boot that goes on the end stayed in the engine. should i try and yank it out or should i just leave it and put the icv back on. i just don’t want to rip the rubber boot trying to get it out. Please help asap.

    great video, many thanks. will a bad icv, or one thats going bad, cause idle surges? i have a 2000 320i with 40k miles and if i let it idle long enough, it will surge for 10 - 15 seconds then normalize. it also surges, sometimes just a few times, after switching off an accessory (headlights, a/c for eg) during idle. few days ago, after driving for about 2 hours in crawling, 2mph traffic in tokyo, the engine suddenly shut down. I was able to restart it immediately with no problem. there were no codes. what do you think?

    the clamp screw thats attached to the ICV on my car is broken, the top of it has pretty much gone flat for whatever reason, so there is no way of me unscrewing it. is there a way of breaking the clamp??? or am i totally screwed?

  • @statyisgod
    @statyisgod 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video as always, I'm thinking maybe this could be a good idea to clean on mine. The car doesn't at present suffer from any symptoms so I'm kind of thinking if it's not broke then don't fix it however it can only do the car good right?

    • @BIMMERZEITT
      @BIMMERZEITT  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Personally I’d skip it if no current symptoms! Unless you’re already in there replacing a disa valve, intake boots, or ccv
