Fixing P054B BMW F30

The vehicle in this video is the 2016 BMW 328i with the 2.0L turbo N26 Sulev engine. This repair mostly revolves around the N26/N20 but the information can be useful to bmw models equipped with the N52/N54/ & N55 engines.
So this video should be helpful for the..
1,2,3,4,5 series models & the X1,X3,X4 SUV models as well. When I 1st got this code the only thing it said was vanos cold start not controllable. With little to go by beyond that hopefully this video is helpful.

I’m about to change from the plastic to the aluminum valve cover, just got mine and I have a question, does the engine noise sound the same as when you had the plastic cover on ?

@@shearscarter9136 yup

[@Miirroooo]

is it the same for E90?

[@ultimatediyguy395]

@@Miirroooo similiar instead of VVT actuators. You will have VVT solenoids the E90’s have the N52,N54, or the N55 engines like I described in the book.

@@muhannedhadi526 I’m not 100% sure but it sounds like you may have a timing problem or something got damaged when you crashed. Sounds like you need to get it towed and taken to a professional
