Great video,are you sure you're meant to remove the o ring? Their (x8r) youtube channel installation guide leaves it on ..i got in touch with them and they said to leave the old one on
When I put mine on it doesnāt want to move. Only way itāll move around is by moving it manually.
Is it better to replace the whole DISA unit plus do the upgrade on it? OR, is there an aftermarket or even OEM equivalent DISA unit that is built with the aluminum components? Seems like the rest of the DISA unit could also deterioiate eventually.

i know its stupid to buy a bmw for your wallet but im set on getting an e85 z4 cause of the cars looks. it just reminds me of asian cars and the big ass bonnet is just amazing on the bleeding things!
In repair kit must include diaphragm also..
That's better than the way factory did it BUT the vacuum diaphragm only lasts so long so in my opinion you may as well break out the wallet every 70k mi. And replace both left and right you do realize there's another adjacent to that left one toward the rt side you need to take intake off to replace
What is the website you purchased the repair kit from
Thank you so so so so so so much
That DISA flap bolt falling it is a myth, I know this forsure since I've did my own DISA Service on my 330ci, if you look in side the port intake hole after removing the DISA, there should be a raised groove edge dead center inside the intake manifold that there so when you install a new DISA flap bolt side will seat up against the house edge not allowing to bolt to come loose until you remove it, if that is the point of failure.
Just FYI there isn't enough clearance for the pin to fall out when the DISA is all the way inserted into the engine. When it's removed its time to be careful.
The previous owner didnāt put āgasket pasteā, that is the way they come OEM. They come from the factory as a molded gasket not an o ring. But thatās exactly why the rebuild includes it! Nice video!
Hey. Thanks for uploading.
I do , however, have a question. I removed it because of rattle noise and checked. It hold vacuum and a pin on top is solid. Not moving at all. Exactly what or which part contributes the noise? Thanks.
I paid 460 because my pin fell and disa didnāt work
