Whistling Noise From N52 After Valve Cover Gaskets
Ive searched and searched and ive gotten nowhere I replaced the valve cover gaskets on my 2007 X5 3.0si . They were leaking badly causing a very slight misfire due to oil in the plug wells. When i put it back together CLEARLY something was wrong... It started fine, after it warmed up there was a very loud whistling noise acompanied by three codes and rough idle followed by stalling and dying 2a99 2a98 2a87 I opened everything back up.. Noted there was a small bean shape plastic part that did break off the valve cover and i used gorilla glue (Suposedly heat resistant) to glue it back to the cover.. If anybody suspects this is my problem please stop me now because i'll go order a new valve cover asap... I've double tripple checked the gaskets, they are fine. Cleaned and swapped the vanos solenoids replaced the ecentric shaft seal (Noted there was a very minor amount of oil in the sensor but that was caused by removal and install, I cleaned it out and reassembled Replaced the valvetronic seal Unhooked battery for 30 minutes, Plugged back up and Inserted key for 1 minute before starting to reset the valvetronic PCV valve is connected... Upon cold start the engine runs fine! No Problem at all After 5 minutes of run time the idle goes really rough and it stalls Help please! I'm loosing it!
