I can watch ur videos all day For my e92 n54 Straight o the point

Thanks for this Video!! I ordered the upgraded valve for my N54 just haven’t done it yet! I hope this helps!!

Great Video. When I replaced mine, the old one was stuck inside of the housing. Had to use a long nose plier with a 90 degree vent to work it outof there.

Yep did it with my valve cover change recently watching your old video lol

Yep, I had forgot about the good old pcv valve. Time to switch it out, thanks for the link!

Thank you sir love these videos clear and accurate

Replaced mine just now, didn’t fix the start up smoke, but was an easy install

awesome video Man

Your best bet is to do your High and Low side PCV to catch cans as well. A DIY for the low side with port blocking would be awesome content, but may not be in your best interest if you have done any valve cover work recently.

I just changed mine on my fbo n54 , the car was starting very rough and consuming oil at a high rate and didn’t feel normal under full load , i got a metal valve from Burger Tuning and the car feels a 100% different, I can’t believe that little neglected valve can make such a difference.

good video as always. thank you

Yup I upgraded to the RB pcv valve myself ive got an e92 didn't have to remove any fuel lines though. Fast easy, cheap also see a lot less blow by 👍

Was thinking about doing this, now I can!

Changed my valve cover gasket and didn’t do this now my cars still smoking but deff gonna try this

Very nice upgrade, and when Jakes one is holding up, it's a great upgrade :-)

Very useful info. I have a 2008 335XI N54 model (w/74K miles) and getting an oil leak dripping on the exhaust manifold (Note: the area is on the manifold to the left of where the PCV is located near the firewall area) and the valve cover does not seem to be leaking. Can this valve or that oil blow back tube be causing the a leak to cause this issue? Again, well done video. Thanks. Phil NYC Area

Thanks great video! Im pushing 22 psi and burning oil, already ordered my catch can this is my next purchase hopefully resolves my issue.

Doing this with vac lines hope it works 🙏

Do N52 have the same PCV valve? I'd like to clean it?

Would you recommend upgrading PCV valve if the tune does not exceed 18psi? Complete valve cover is brand new, should I leave all it as it is?

i have a bmw 320d which when i give it a cold start, it will smoke a little and smell too. also i dont feel it have the same power it did years ago. changing this will help?

hi thank you for the vide. I looked simple enough to attempt om my own as preventative maintenance. Based on the rodeo it was easy enough to get there an remove the PCV valve cap but the PCV valve will not budge, come out. of course the only way to crab it and try to wiggle or pull it out is though the small plastic stem and it broke! Any Ideas how to get the old valve out????

Have an oil leak, took it to the mechanic and says it was leaking from the crank seals due to a defective pvc valve/pressure build up. Said the pvc was integrated into the valve cover and the whole valve cover would have to be replaced/1200 repair. Of course your video shows otherwise. 🙄Can you provide and updated link for the upgraded part? The one you posted says the part is no longer available

Do you think that a bad PCV can cause enough pressure in the crankcase to cause an oil leak on the front crank seal?? I would a appreciate you opinion thank you!!

Did you also increase your hose diameter? Silicone or rubber? No catch can, correct?

I have an oil catch can and with that I believe it deleted the pcv valve... Is that good or bad??? What do you think about running oil catch cans??? Thanks

What is the BMW reccomeneded Torque spec for PCV valve?

I changed my pcv valve with an ftp valve. The car now smells of oil especially coming from the bov on my chargepipe. I’m losing oil but at a very slow rate. Any idea on what’s causing it?

Hi, is this the same process for a 318d e91 ?

So I keep getting the dreaded P0171 and P0174 codes. I opened the oil cap to check for suction and there was none. What I did notice was the oil cap wasn’t seated properly. I reset the codes and it has been running fine for the last week. Could it be that simple?

Does the thread of the new upgrade valve have to be screwed tightly or a little loose? Does it rattle when you shake it back and forth?

Just upgraded my pcv to a BMS unit and I do NOT recommend cutting the burrs on the PCV cap. I did that and it caused a bunch of weird metal whirring/rattling noises. I ended up needing to buy a new metal pcv cap, which solved the issue. If you're having issues fitting your new PCV: 1) make sure you lubricate the rubber gaskets with some engline oil and 2) if you absolutely need to trim the burrs, use course sand paper and only remove a little at a time. Hope this helps save people from the same headaches I just went through :)

So i have a n54 e90. has docrace 6266 on it. my question is around 55-6000 rpms ill notice it doesnt hold boost it slowly drops down to 23psi from 26.5-27psi it starts at. Would this be the cause? i done a smoke test and the pipe that goes into the inlets smokes like theres a vaccum leak starting to think that its leaking cause loss in boost. Is that possible

A word of warning: I changed my stock PCV valve for an FTP brand PCV valve and added a BMS oil catch can to my N54 almost a year ago when I walnut blasted the intakes. Upon completion the engine began making periodic screeching sounds like metal on metal with no lubricant. My hearing sucks and I have tinnitus so locating the source of sounds for me is next to impossible. Long story short, turns out the sound I was hearing was air being sucked into the crankcase past the front crankshaft seal. I spent a few weeks before I figured that out and spent a few hundred dollars (which would have been a couple thousand dollars had a repair shop done the work) only to find out it was a faulty PCV valve and I should have known better as the instructions were useless and it was made in China. I had purchased this from the now defunct BavAuto who blew me off when I tried to tell them about it. In short, buy a quality valve from VTT or RB Turbo (where I got mine) and know you're getting a well made product. The results are worth it.

If you buy Rob Becks version, he sells an aluminum cap that fits his upgraded PCV valve. Also, the PCV breather valve hose should be replaced every 50k or excess pressure can build up & cause valve cover & RMS leaks.

Hey I hope you still answer do you know any new links for the pcv the old link doesn’t work anymore

Is it works for BMW X6 2008 E71 35ix n54?

When its bad, does it have a howling noise?

Is it necessary to put back an engine cover ?

Hi, I break the PCV cover and I can’t take it out, can you help me?

any new link fot the part?

Sweet.

Can a bad pcv valve cause the car to smoke ? Thanks in advance 🙏

Can you please add the link to the pcv valve again? Thank you

No entiendo, esa válvula es la pcv?, Hay otra que es circular, viene en 2 piezas, va por el maniful, cuál es entonces la pcv?

Anyone have a new link for this new PCV valve ? His link doesn’t work anymore .

Is this the same location as the n53 engine?

What if you have a oil catch can?

How long was the car shut off ?

Could the car smoke due to bad pcv valve

The link to the item not working can you send me another?

Hey, you. Thanks.

We need the turbos update! Lol. My stock turbos are almost on there way out and I’m in between these or the proven ps2’s.

I have the same valve in my 750whp 135i, holding up great!

So ur car doesnt have the both orange cylinders??

Got link where I can buy thx

Have you considered going external PCV to eliminate oil in the intake runners from the oil drain ports in the head? I put in an aftermarket valve a while back, and while I'm not concerned with the valve being overpowered by boost, I still see a decent amount of buildup around the intake valves...

Where I can buying

pcv on n54 is hooked up pre-turbo... can't cause boost leak, but can cause excess oil to enter the turbo, resulting in smoking issues.

Hey VDIY love you videos!! Anyway I’m catless downpipes right to catless straight pipes. Every since I did those mods I’ve been having a blueish smoke coming from my car usually only on deceleration? Think it’s possibly Pcv or bad valve seals?

Thank you sir! I just bought the rb pcv after watching your video since I also got the dynamic autowerks turbos but the 775rs ones they're coming in a week or so. Am so excited. I really want to see the dyno or track numbers of your turbos. How are they? Pulling strong?

Next time you do a valve cover gasket and walnut blast, convert to an external PCV system. Let’s you run a catch can

This and VTT breather oil cap seem to have made engine blow-by less. Less oil in intercooler piping and such.

Just took order of the same upgraded turbos as you, but I'm worried about fueling. I'm running straight 94 octane, as E85 isn't available for purchase in Southern Ontario (Canada). Any suggestions on how to optimize my setup?

I just had Downpipes installed now exhaust is blowing some smoke

With how old this video is, I don't know if you will see this. I have an issue with my 135i whenever I am coming down to low idle. Whether that is coming to a stop at a stoplight or after a small rev while in park, my car will either cutoff and need to be restarted. It also has a delay when I press the throttle to where the car will jump after a few seconds delay to get going. I wasn't sure if this little piece might be the issue or not, but my mechanic and I have replaced coils, spark plugs, valve cover, and valve cover gasket. I also had the alternator replaced around a year and a half to two years ago, for complete loss of power issues. Im at the point of being stumped. Any suggestions?

would you do this if you were also planning on doing a oil catch can system?

Do you still recommend if valve cover is new

👍👍👍

Forgive me for asking what maybe a silly question, but what kind of grease do u use to lube the o ring

Do you know if it would be redundant to buy and install the PCV if I'm installing the catch can?

My car smokes for a few seconds when i idle with the car after a good pull sometimest blue smoke could that be it? my turbos are spooling just fine?

I have stock turbos on my E93, it’s 102k should I go ahead and change it. To prevent any leaking. ?

I don't NEED a oil catch can in addition to this, do i?

PCV valve replacement is also important, because if it sticks open, the car may behave like it has a vacuum leak.

Should these be upgraded as a matter of course, even if low miles engine with no issues?

Your ebay link is broken.

I got 80k miles on my 335is. I’m looking to do this because my car throws smoke from my car when I turn it on after a 2nd time. I do a cold start and drive, no smoke. I turn it on again and I’ll stop at a light, step on the gas alittle and light white smoke comes out and it looks like a lot. Turbos sound healthy so not sure what it could be... can this pcv valve really cause that much smoke to come out of the exhaust??

does this also work for e90 323i?

Hey I snapped my pcv valve cover where the valve sits in I'm having trouble finding a website that sells them know any places

Does the 2008 328i have the same valve? N52 engine

they still leak stock turbos mine smokes like a chimney

Just cracked the cap, any ideas what to do ?

Can that work on my 740li bmw2012. Anybody

I think you mean don’t forget your external PCV kit requiring removal of the valve cover and plugging the head ports. It’s much more comprehensive.

I recently changed mine with an upgraded one, and ever since I replaced it I get a very strange sound over 4500- 5000rpm.. I wish I kept the old one

If you want to save $40 and I didn't have to trim the pcv cap to fit. The one I bought had a genuine toyota PCV valve in the box, if you remove that metal ring on the RB that's what you will see... www.oreillyauto.com/detail/b/microgard-4263/engine-sensors---emissions-25132/pcv-25064/pcv-valve-12021/c24c7c440178/microgard-pcv-valve/pcv2275/4444060/1998/toyota/supra?q=pcv+valve&pos=0 www.oreillyauto.com/detail/b/dorman-help--4422/filters-16470/pcv-valve-grommet-12023/d807601ff82d/dorman-help-pcv-valve-grommet/42058/4527806/1998/toyota/supra?pos=2

Mine didn't come with an o ring :(

my pump primed about 4 times and pissed fuel out of the rail lmao

A hello pls I am have in problem with this mixture control on BMW n54 engine 2008 Can you Guy's help thanks...

Bro better upgrade to oil catch can

Holy shit I think I just realized I sold my dream car for a 10k loss because I thought the problem that no one could figure out was bigger than this. Fml

Testicular diy takes balls

N55 Owner: 🤦‍♂️

.

I had recently replaced my PCV valve, same one as this one. About 2 days later at cold start up I got a slight white/blue puff of smoke and then it cleared up. It only does it cold start up. Was wondering how yours looks like after u got it tightened down all the way. I feel like mine is not perfectly flush but at the same time I don’t want to crack the plastic fitting.
