I have just had the CDV valve removed today what a difference it makes the car is so much better to drive its no longer jerky and hard to hold the revs. I would definatly recomend this to anyone :thumbsup
I got one of my dads friends to do it who owns a garage it cost me 40quid its dead easy as it on the bottom of the gearbox so it wouldnt cost much from anywhere i would have thought
Cool. Do normal E46's have those shields below the gearbox - or is it just the M3's? This might be this coming weekend's task - I never knew about the CDV, but I experience all the symptoms. I bought the gearchange bushes a couple of weeks ago, so they'll be done at the same time
I think there is some sort of sheild under the gearbox but i could be wrong. It will be even better for you if you track daying your car its tonnes nicer to drive now
You don't need a modified one on the E46 - just take it out, and join the hose & pipe back together without it. E46's stretch fine, some other's don't as it's pipe to pipe.
