BMW e46 Valve Cover Gasket Replacement. BMW 323i 325i 328i 330i 323ci 325ci 328ci 330 ci Valve Cover Gasket
► Our Website: mechaniclifestyle.com
We took this video to show you how to replace the valve cover gasket on a BMW e46 6 cylinder. It is the same from 1999-2005 for all models equipped with M52 or M54 engines. 323i 325i 328i 330i.
Our valve cover gasket was leaking oil on the exhaust and it was smoking and smelling like burnt oil.

To make video more valuable, consider adding torque value for the assembly and if sequence of tightening plays a role in creating a tight seal. Thanks.

@ eviloctober use gasket silicone to help you keep the gasket in place. Apply gasket silicone in the grove and then place the gasket.

Into the Grove of the valve cover? Or where you place the gasket into the head?

Great Job Guys and Great Video. I did this simple repair in my 2005 ZHP E46 with ease thanks to you. I have a new Project. The exhaust manifold seems to be cracked. I need to remove it maybe weld it or replace it. Replacing is expensive I was told that it can be repaired. What do you say???

@WorldMechanics 8 жыл бұрын

+Jose Antonio Oyola it is not very complicated to remove the headers. You can give it a try and if it does not work then replace them. You can find great deals on ebay. Just make sure that you do not drive it for a long time like that because you might get some exhaust gas in the cabin through the cabin filter.

+World Mechanics that's a great point. Didn't think about it getting in the cabin.

On my wife's 2002 325ci it begins to run extramly bad after it heats up. In fact it appears to begin missing and sometimes smoke and smell as if it is burning oil. I was thinking it maybe the valve guides but after looking at this video I was wondering if it may need a new valve cover gasket set. Have you heard of the 325 series doing what mine is doing and what may be the reason. Thanks

@geneleoneii3013 7 жыл бұрын

yes oil prob leaked into the well where the spark plug is.. pull each plug as teh car is running to see which has no change in the running engine... could be coil pack too

@sovannc6966 8 жыл бұрын

If your gasket is bad, can it cause the oil to leaks when you're on a hill and cause the burning rubber smell coming thou the central vent?

@WorldMechanics 8 жыл бұрын

+The401Kidd yes it is very possible. Just make sure that it is the gasket and not something else burning. Once you feel the smell through the center vent, open the hood, you should be able to see a small amount of smoke from the oil that is dripping on the exhaust.

i dont think so. just let the car sit for a while, so most of the oil reaches the oil pan.

Oooook, need a little advice just changed my rocker cover gasket as like on here,.... only I've a 318i 4 cylinder.. it's all been put back together & to start with there was tapping.. now seems to have stopped however there is smoke/stream coming from the lower back of the engine... could this be oil burning on the exhaust or something more the car is also idling roughly & at 1 moment the revs raise from 500 idle to 1500 again at idle... without me doing anything.... I'm getting pretty concern.. however I've only changed the gasket... this was due to me finding the dip stick almost empty without any warning lights etc... I'm thinking I need major help

I started learning about motor since I realized Icould save thousands by doing myself, the bad thing is that my car is a 323bmw00'. I have a struggle every time I change even I scrow..I changed a lot of parts trying to fix 2 misfiring in number 1 and 4 if You start counting them from back to the front of the car.new gas pump and filter,sparkplugs and coils, head gasket, crank sensor, potions sensor and another one that I don't even know what it sense, I dont have a read when I put it in a scanner. I use fuel inyector cleaning, a seafoam into the airintake ..secundary airpump looks ok.. Nothing of this help a bit.. What can I do next? I learned a lot watching your videos, reason I think you know much more than other people..my car just reach 2k miles but it looks a lot younger, with the exception that shakes and don't pass the 80miles/hours.

So where is the "E46 valve cover gasket replacement." These guys only have a video on "Valve cover REMOVAL." Serious Screw up, if you follow this video, as there is ZERO discussion on Where and WHY to RTV, But I guess if you just slab a ton of rtv and torque it down to "Oh yeah another FAIL" I hope the 171k Viewers found a good M54 VCG video.

@31acruz 2 жыл бұрын

the video was INCOMPLETE, you did not show the installation, SPECIALLY how much RTV paste you have to use in the areas around the VANOS. Thumbs down for me.
