The intake manifold is actually pretty straight forward. I did it to replace all the vacuum lines which is something you should consider doing while in there. I actually just reused the gaskets as they were in good shape and haven't had any issues at all. As for the replacement of the other items, can't help you there but I'm sure someone will chime in.

I recently replaced all 6 glow plugs and their controller on our 2009 x5 35d. See my thread for details. ECS Tuning sells a kit that includes the 6 glow plugs (Bosch) controller (Beru) and all the intake manifold gaskets for $312.44.
I followed the great post on how to remove and replace the intake manifold by sgrice Don’t even think about just replacing one glow plug. The majority of the labor is getting to the glow plugs. The small incremental labor/cost of replacing all 6 and the controller is a no brainer. Funf Dreisig Last edited by FunfDreisig; 08-11-2017 at 04:11 PM. |

You need to replace the glow plug controller as well (when one GP goes it usually takes out the controller. Search, this is covered here or on Bimmerfest)..I see Funf has given you a good start. How confident are you with the dealer diagnosis? Was this a full-blown, run all the diagnostics and test plans work up?? Or a 'read two codes and throw a $$ estimate and see if he bites' quickie? |

The original code on our 2009 35d was P067F code — “Cylinder 6 Glow Plug Control Circuit High”
And it is pretty clear the the #6 glow plug was not working (left to right #1->6). Glow plugs have almost no resistance — perilously close to 1 ohm — which is why they can heat up so quickly. And also why they are hard to check with an ohm meter. As it happens all 6 of my old glow plugs measure roughly the same resistance with a Klein multimeter. So it is very unlikely that my #6 glow plug was really the problem. BUT… the diagnostics for the glow plugs are read by/through the Glow Plug Controller. So it is much more likely that the “Cylinder 6 Glow Plug Control Circuit“ that was reading “High” was within the Glow Plug Controller itself. In other words, the controller was no longer telling the #6 glow plug to turn on. FWIW the round connector on the left side of the glow plug controller houses a single +12V hot wire that is directly connected to the alternator. Funf Dreisig |

I am still researching what to do with it, in E53 the chain replacement costs about a $300 and seems fairly easy. I may just do that on my transfer case. I will let you guys know what I end up doing I am going to take my time and do some research, a rebuilt E70 transfer case costs $1200 or so, don't know if I will do that, can get a used transfer case from a auto parts recyclers some offer 6 month warranty.
