BMW M52tu/M54/M56 engines on E46 3-Series, E39/E60 5-series, E83 X3, E53 X5, and Z3 models have a variable camshaft timing system (VANOS), which is operated by pressurized oil. When the system's internal oil seals wear out, the VANOS system can cause power loss, rattling sounds and check engine codes.
This VANOS rebuild kit uses upgraded Viton oil seals, which are far more durable than the standard Buna material used in the BMW original equipment.
