BLKX3 is on a distinguished road
Did the VCG and vanos rebuild yesterday

Gave my X3 some serious love yesterday. It just turned 90K and the vcg was leaking slightly. I can't say enough about the quality of the Beisan Systems vanos seals. I did the procedure three years ago on an E46 330i. The instructions available on their website really helps alot. Its a long slog though, fair amount of stuff to remove before the valve cover comes off. Took me 5 hours and then more time to put all my tools away. Worth the effort though, as you can feel the increased torque and power. The original seals were so worn the vanos pistons were flopping around the unit with no resistence.
