    Congratulations! Well done! You’re the king of tenacity! I just did my vanos also. Didn’t have the death rattle just preventive maintenance. Cheers, George

    Man I can't believe you did all of that troubleshooting. Crazy stuff. Have you ever considered loading INPA on an old laptop? Works wonders for me for stuff like this

    • @m3nameisjosh464
      @m3nameisjosh464  Рік тому

      I dont think inpa goes as far back as obd 1 e34s, i could be wrong though

    off topic but when you lowered your calypso did you have to get an engine riser kit? ik people talk about the oil pan clearance on e30s i dunno if it applies to m50 e34s

    What’s the difference with the e34 motor that had vanos vs the one without it ?

    • @m3nameisjosh464
      @m3nameisjosh464  Рік тому

      M50 non vanos: No vanos, dual valve springs, 135mm beefier rods
      M50 vanos: had vanos, single valve springs, 140mm rods

    Why don’t you have a mic on you so there won’t be much background noise ?
