    Haven’t experienced having smoke out of my vents but the burnt strong smell I’ve had so many times. And yes it’s because of the oil leaking from the gasket and dripping all over.

      Ysl Jay I believe aftermarket valve cover and gasket kits are around $300 or so. Add about 2 hrs labor cost if you aren’t doing it yourself. So maybe around $500 to $600 at a shop.

    3:24 of Yappin...😑. Thumbs down like a mfr. dude don’t turn wrenches, if he did he’d have included a how to.
    -Smoke smell in your car, yes Valve Cover/AND gasket.
    -still smell it? Replace old N54 oil fill cap (Where you add oil) with an N55 cap.
    -Still smell oil? (Replace the oil filter with correct one, and make sure you have it correctly placed, arrow to arrow.)
    -Still smell it? Time to clean the ole metal skid plate where all the old oil has been pooling up under the splash guards. Use brake cleaner and scrub-dub-dub.
    -Still smelly? Oil filter housing gasket.
    There it is folks, no cool guy posing, no “awesome” thumbnails, just facts. That’s how you fix an oil smell on an N54. And buckle up, $$$ is what you’ll need. Go with amazon tho, cheaper than any parts shop. Buckle up. BMW = Broke Mans Wallet for a reason...🤣
    Once you start working on a BEEM, you better become a mechanic reeeeal quick, or you will once your done with it...
    After all that, Now who’s ready for the oil pan gasket and turbos?Wheel bearings? Vacuum lines? Charge pipe? 🤔Don’t forget the tune up and Coil packs. Oh and don’t forget the old non conventional Thermostat/Housing and Electronic water pump.
    BMWs are not for the faint of heart. But again, neither is a fine woman. They require a steady hand, patience, and dedication.

    2013 E70 X5 35i I get this strange smell with 106k miles. It's on and off not all time. I had this today with some light smoke from after driving and then parking. So that's the valve cover gasket? Also the engine lost only 1/4 quart of engine over the last 6k miles so I bet it's little for average oil consumption. Will get this VCG checked for sure.

  • @kennethstanton5407
    @kennethstanton5407 5 років тому +1

    In the majority of cases, I kinda doubt what you are suggesting is the culprit. Way more likely the blower motor is about to take a sh*t or some other crappy wiring issue. Especially true for the older models. (I am suffering through an ancient E46, with its horrible cheap wiring and idiotic late 90s designed electronics now). If all seals are in place and functioning, you shouldn't be getting any engine bay pollution into the fresh air intake. Not saying it can't happen, but with other models, I kinda doubt that it will be coming from the engine bay unless the bloody thing is on fire.
