    Is the car overheating?What do the solenoids actually do?

    Vanos selonoids control the cam timing via oil pressure.

    The seals in the selonoids that came factory installed from the fatherland are said to slowly lose their sealing ability between 60-100,000 miles.

    The dealership will replace the entire selonoid assembly with the same seals. There are aftermarket companies that make replacement seals (Besam Systems) for approx $100. It is a diy project from what I understand.

    I finally contributed something useful to the forum!!!

            Chris, that link isn't working, but as a long time Wisconsinite I'm guessing we'll be seeing snow before the month is over...?

                    I gotta agree with Ryan... I don't believe we've seen the last snowfall before summer.

                      Still no CEL since the dealer cleared the codes...

                      The new bacon jalapeño queso at Qdoba is damn tasty BTW.

                        More than likely. Average last frost date in this part of the world is somewhere around MAY 10th! That's nearly 2 MONTHS of potential for snow left... Get your hiking in while you can Snap ;)

                                    Is your car still littered with Powerade bottles?

                                      Dropped the plow off my 4-wheeler and I'll be swapping the snows off the Jeep this weekend.
