Product Information

Kit includes an OE replacement VDO eccentric shaft sensor along with replacement valve cover gaskets, spark plug tube seals, and other required parts for installing a new Valvetronic sensor

The Valvetronic sensor measures the position of the eccentric shaft in the cylinder head which controls the variable valve lift system on the intake side of the engine. The Valvetronic system essentially controls the engine speed by varying the lift of the intake valves. If this sensor fails it can cause an erratic idle, stalling, and poor power delivery. To replace this sensor you must remove the valve cover which will involve replacing all of the associated gaskets and seals.

Please note: The new Valvetronic sensor includes encapsulated bolts. They must be torqued to 10Nm (88 in lbs). Chemical sealants are not required when installing a new valve cover gasket on an N52 engine. Be sure to clean all sealing surface before installing the valve cover. DO NOT use any abrasives to clean the sealing surface. The valve cover screws must be replaced. Use the screws included with the kit and torque to 7Nm (~62 in lbs) + 90°.

Budget replacement.
Good buy, if you work on your own car. Not a hard replacement but the gaskets will need replacement every year or biyearly if you are lucky.

Valvetronic Sensor Kit
Been about a month since the kit was used. No more leaks from the valve cover gasket and the eccentric shaft sensor was replaced for preventive maintenance. Parts all fit and are working as they should.

Questions & Answers

Question Posted by renato
is this fit my 2017 bow X5 xdrive35I
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
No. This kit fits the years and models listed only. N55 engines, like the one in your 2017 X5 xDrive35i, do not have an eccentric shaft position sensor. Rather, it is integrated into the Valvetronic eccentric shaft actuator. We have a kit for that, KIT-11377603979KT.
Question Posted by Gregory
do you also have a replacement valve cover
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
Yes, we have replacement valve covers. Enter your year and model and search "valve cover" to find the one which applies to your year and model.
