lord4play is on a distinguished road
Thank you gentlemen I have checked the disa valve and found it to be in proper working order but had a strong smell of gas. I will be going into town a little later to pick up oil. there are 3 parts stores in town. But for some reason they only carry a couple quarts of synthetic at a time which means for my motor flush I end up using 3 or 4 different brands of oil. I am kind of an4l about my oil this motor flush takes me about a hour even though the oil and filter are only used for about 20 mins it is then drained and replaced with fresh oil and filter.

I'll keep checking back and trying cheap fixes like the motor flush. anyone ever use seafoam on their x5? I have 5 or 6 cans here but have not used any on the x5.

would it be worth it to run a can during the flush and possibly through the intake?


Thanks again guys
