How long does it take to do the job
i channel my ccv vaves on my e46 328i now my gas pedal is flat with no pressure. can it be a the throttle body went bad. my car turn on but nothing from gas pedal
you are a big mechanic.
this is a great vid, thank you. Any idea if I can clean the throttle body and IAC the same way on my X5 e53, the intake boots look different on your car than the X5 so I wasn't sure, also would it be better to pony up and just replace the IAC, any real benefit to replacing it vs cleaning it?
How can you tell when its the cold climate version?
What are your thoughts on a CCV delete with an oil catch in its place? I live in a non smog area.
Awesome video, you're providing a great service for the E46 community, thanks!
You made this look so easy! About to tackle this one tomorrow wish me luck. CCV has been the likely culprit of a few problems I’ve had recently.
will the same work on a m54 engine for a bmw 525i e60?
Does this cause my car to smoke?
How long do you think this took you
Great help! Thanks! Prior to installing the return line to the dip stick I would also recommend verifying the drain on the dipstick is not clogged. Mine was. Cleaned it out with piece of wire and cleaner.
TOP video, thank you very much
Seriously though, why would someone thumbs down this?
Love your work and shoes!
hi my rpm drop slowly when i rev the car? ( and thanks for the videos they have been of much help)
So f*ing nice video!!!
Just a tip:
The very top hose which connects to the air rail needs to be twisted into place. There are grooves that direct the twist. I just did this diy 2 weeks ago and was referencing this video and the 50s kid video. Sure you can connect it by just pushing it into place but it requires too much force and you might end up breaking the ccv. I also thought it was impossible.
Despite what others say and the fact that the space is extremly limited down there, it is 100% possible to twist the hose into place (under the intake manifold ) but it requires time.
hi amigo I have a 323i and I have the gear light on how can I fix or what can I do?
