Have a few of these from when I was thinking about lpg. These haven't been drilled. They're from late m62-tu, one has a mechanical throttle body and pcv still attached, the other hasn't got either attached. Starting at £20. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/373176249618

Hi all. Hope someone can help. Had abit of a nightmare time recently. I decided to take my inlet manifold of my 320d 2005 e90 to clean it. After putting it back on the damn thing didn't want to start. However, after many attempts cranking it finally jumped into life. But ran rough. So I...

Dear Friends I live in Norway and have a BMW e60, 530XI from 2005. Engine N52B30A. VIN CC76375. The job just now is to renew the PCV with all tubings. When doing this, I have taken the inlet manifold off and I can see two kind of dampers which is mounted inside the manifold. One from the...

On the off chance anyone else has had a similar experience I thought I would ask. Unlikely I suspect, but here goes... I sheared one of the bolts refitting the inlet manifold. These are captive in the manifold housing. Is it possible to replace these or will it be easier to replace the whole...

Hi All My old 330d has done around 60,000 autobahn miles since a swirl flap problem 3 years ago, when I had a new piston in cylinder 6 and 4 new valves. Recently it started to lose power in the low revs and was smoking a fair bit under acceleration. Also had a rough idle. However, it cruises ok...

I just got a E60 520 / N46. Car came in with camshaft inlet position / O2 sensor faults. Vanos solenoid on inlet side was found not working as well though no codes on vanos showed up. O2 sensor and vanos solenoid were solved with replacements. Vanos then runs fine from live data. Now I am...

Hi I recently purchased a 2007 318D with M47 engine and following a bit of reading decided to give it some TLC by cleaning the inlet manifold and EGR valve. It's all back together and runs ok except for the nasty fault code - P0401 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient Detected. In my...

I have a 2011 X3 F25 3.0d with 70000 miles on it which has an inlet manifold with multiple small areas which have melted. The manifold has been under boost pressure at the time as the material has been pushed out from the inside of the manifold. The fault manifested itself as a burning smell...

So cars been into bmw again after the failed repair last week. Last week they replaced the egr cooler which they claimed was cracked (I never saw this and they didn't send me a video either). That cost me £750 which didn't cure the symptoms I had at all. Now they're telling my I have a cracked...

Hi I just bought a BMW X5 2007 model with 3.0d automatic engine, ecu and inlet manifold are missing. My neighbour is a mechanic and will TRY to fix it but where from we can buy these parts? Also please advise why these 2 parts will be missing from the car? What sort of issue would make the...

Need to replace my inlet manifold and controller on my 320d e92 n47 engine as a swirl flap had snapped luckily wedged its self in the manifold. All the replacements I can find don't have swirl flaps in them wondering if I can just remove them from the manifold or purchase new one without and...

Have been trawling thru the old posts about this and have not found a definitive answer. I have a 2008 N53 325i and have managed to get hold of an inlet manifold from a 330i N53 engine. Has anyone actually fitted the inlet manifold and found someone to remap up to the 330i 272bhp? - Apart from...

Hi all, I discovered this today (or I managed to do it myself, I'm not sure) when I was changing my air filter. I have ordered a new boot from BMW (£36) but I'm not sure what it (the pipe) is for and what effect it will have on running. The part won't be here until next week so I can't sort it...
