ccv's updated and the valve stems are not going to cause the oil to be passed into the intake upon idle... it's a design flaw that bmw fixed in 2007 with the "updated" valve cover and ccv valve built into the hose.

I refuse to give BMW $500 in parts to fix something that they clearly new was not correct, but just wanted to make all kinds of $$$ off the consumer.

I am going the "catch can route" to fix this issue...
