Frustrated with those other CCV replacement videos where they basically tell you to fish those tubes through the intake manifold blind? Well in my video I go ahead and remove the intake manifold, which lets you get access to replace a lot of vacuum lines and other components, and in doing so I give you a view of exactly how to fish the CCV tube through the manifold and hook it to the oil separator so that you can SEE what you need to do clearly, should you decide not to remove it.
To see the video on how to remove all the usual suspects:
• BMW 330i 325i E46 Comm...
In this video I work on my 2002 BMW 330i.
I also clean the throttle body and idle air control valve, which really gave me a boost in responsiveness, by the way.
In this part I show you the various vacuum lines you can replace as well as the intake manifold gasket and I show you how to put everything back together.

Which consists of:

11617533398 - valve cover to separator tube
11617533399 - intake manifold to separator tube
11157532629 - oil dipstick drain tube
11617504536 - intake manifold return tube
To get a set of the standard CCV components:

Which consists of:
11617501566 - oil separator
11611432559 - valve cover to separator tube
11617504535 - intake manifold to separator tube
11157532649 - oil dipstick drain tube

You cover everything from start to finish and show everyobne exactly how each repair or replacement is done. You are my goto resource for my own do it yours repairs on my 330Ci, and I would never be able to do them without your videos. I mean you are head and shoulders above everyone else for the BMW e46 vehicles, so I sioncerely thank you for taking the time to help the rest of us out in this way. Thanks again.

  • Thank you 50s kid! I can't quite believe I just took a BMW to peices and put it back together again with no problems, no error codes, having never so much as changed an air filter before in my life. I just took my 325 for a good thrash around south London tonight and it's driving better than ever. There's no way I could have done this without your videos! I wouldn't have even contemplated it.

  • I had to pull the manifold off again to put that vacuumed line on. I replace the starter while I was in there. I used a non ratcheting socket wrench to break loose and the ratcheting wrench to work it out. Also a tip i found helpful Was to actually start my screws with my retrieval telescoping magnet, if you center it in the magnet then you can twist it to get it started if he turns with no risk of dropping the screw or nut😀. My E 46 is a 2006 so there are some Differences in the electrical connections and a few of the vacuum lines but I figured it out, and I couldn’t of done it without your videos they were my go to thank you so much for taking the time to put them out there to help everyone with their BMWs

  • 2 years of hesitation and probably 5 times watching this video, I did this job!!! Weirdest thing about my European October 2001 330i is that I have that plug in the back of intake manifold (the one for secondary air pump) but it is just attached with zip tie to the main wire for coils. It is hanging there since I have no secondary pump. My guess is that BMW did not want to waste the already produced wiring harnesses. My oil return line just split in half basically and was slowly dropping oil on the engine block. Eventually massive RICH mixture with about 20% compensation that led to drastic comsumption increase. Thank you, Jason! I do all my jobs with your videos.

And I remember myself hitting the boiling point a few times while I was trying to get that short tube in. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge. Makes me feel more comfortable to work on my own car.

  • Oh my is this a good video!!!! Took me a while to understand how to unhook all of the manifold connections and this was the best video ever to assist in that process. It's now a one day job to remove/install the manifold. Given the car has 190,000 this will be handy when it's time to change the starter. Didn't know my water pipes were cracked where they seated in the block. What a pain to remove these pieces with a pick and a vacuum so the pieces didn't end up in the block. But at least I found my coolant leak. Surprised I could keep any coolant at all in the system. But it's been like that for years. Great explanation of the fuel injector clip reinstallation. I missed the part where you said it was a challenge to install the CCV line up to the valve cover before installing the manifold. Big mistake. Can't thank you enough. Saved me a ton of money.

I use to be guided by your videos and I spend money as I spent when I have a Jetta and I am feeling good to know that what I've done is well done, that all of the pieces are in place and that all of them are NEW replacement pieces (here is normal to pay for some fix and not have what you paid for). Thank you. Hope you understand what I tried to say, I don't speak or write english very well. By the way... I use to buy what I need in eBay, purchases are delivered in a friends house and I use to go 2 times at month and I take those pieces.

  • HI J .. Fist of all, what a great set of videos. Absolutely invaluable in helping me attempt the CCV replacement. Just wanted to mention, I also changed the starter. As you say, it's not possible to use a socket and wrench but with an angled ring spanner it's pretty straightforward. By using a second ring spanner on the head of the first, it's possible to get the leverage to crack the bolts without too much trouble. I then used a ratchet spanner (1/4 turn at a time) to do the rest. Takes a little bit of time and patience but with the intake manifold off, it really isn't that difficult.

  • Just finished this job. It seems overwhelming at first but just follow the steps and all will be fine. I have a Canadian model and noticed some differences, a vac line or two and a wire connector he had that I don't. After putting everything back together and starting the car it still ran shitty. I checked a plug on the back of the manifold that I new was brittle and split and taped it up snug and slid it back on, now she runs pretty good. MAF might need cleaning.. not sure though. Anyway, thank you 50's Kid. You're a hero

  • Hi Jason - just wanted to thank you for a great set of videos on the E46 - gave me a lot more confidence to tackle the specifics of this M54 engine. Smoking engine turned out to be valve cover gasket failure - also oil filter housing gasket was leaking. Did both these plus replaced CCV , auxiliary belts and vacuum lines - didn't regret taking intake manifold off - for general access. A few minor build differences with Right Hand Drive model regarding cable runs and aircon aux belt tensioner being 55 torx rather than 16mm nut. She fired up just fine and so far so good. Quality set of videos - keep up the good work.

  • This series of videos needs to be enshrined somewhere. I recently bought a 2004 BMW 330i ZHP 6-speed with 140k mikes and have been doing a lot of preventative maintenance. Early on, I did the cooling system components on the front of the engine. But this past weekend, I did a bunch of stuff under the intake manifold: CCV, plastic coolant pipes, and starter. These videos were so helpful in showing well lit closeups of each step in both the removal and reassembly. Disconnecting the fuel line was a challenge, but it got easier once I realized it was secured to the back of the manifold in a bracket. Also, like some others mentioned, I found it much easier to reinstall the fuel injectors onto the fuel rail before inserting into the manifold. You can put the clips on the injectors and then snap them onto the rail. I went slow and took all weekend, but at the end, I said a prayer and then started the car right up. I never would have attempted something like this without these great resources. Thanks!

  • I have to say, you're a great instructor. I followed your steps for taking off the manifold to replace ccv and hoses, it all currently sits on a piece of cardboard in my spare bedroom (my new shop), I replaced my knock sensors while the engine is bare, I wish I had purchased the coolant hoses that are also under the intake ahead of time. I have never been a mechanic until beginning four years ago when I purchased my BMW 2002 530i M54. So looking at all of this that I had disconnected per your video, I am so intimidated anticipating the reinstall. After watching this video, I feel a little more comfortable about reinstall though still with a little intimidation. I'm mostly afraid that after reinstalling all of it, that something will be plugged into an incorrect place and my car will be toast. I have to do this though, without any assistance from anybody who knows BMW side from you and this video. I am confident with intimidation, my feelings about this are strange even to me. However, I will take my time and practice patience (until I drop something that disappears ie. 10mm haha), that's the best way I believe to be able to tackle such a huge deal to me. Thank you so much for your "detailed" instruction, I don't have the funds to take my car (daily driver 225k miles), to any shop, so it's on me an inexperienced auto/BMW mechanic. Wish me luck because here I go, it's all out, time for reinstallation. "Breathe, just breathe" (telling myself) 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

  • You can get the starter bolts with a 10mm combo wrench from underhood. The 10mm fits the Etorx perfectly. It's painfully slow to remove, and I kept a telescopic magnet handy for the dozens of times the combo wrench fell off, to the floor . But after, grind a slot in the starter bolt once you've spent 1 hour removing them from up top. The slot will allow you to use a skinny screwdriver to access that slot from the front side of the bellhousing. This is a trick I learned from working on Corvairs

  • Great videos, Thanks for all the time you spent doing these. I got to the point of removing the intake and paused. I was able to install my new cold weather CCV without removing the intake manifold. It was tight but I took my time and was very gentle with the parts and the connection of the tubes. I bought my 02 325i as a fixer upper. It would blow lots of smoke when you started it up. It ran rough as I could hear a massive vacuum leak. The spark plugs were oil fouled and lots of carbon build up. Compression on the engine was excellent. I poured some Sea Foam into the cylinders and let it soak. Installed new plugs, changed the oil and NO MORE SMOKE. My $1500 BMW is a keeper. Oh, the dash gauge reads -40 degrees and I think it needs a new fuel sending unit.??? Thanks again, GPappy

  • Really enjoy and appreciate all your videos. I wanted to ask you a question. Can I reinstall the intake manifold with the ICV, throttle body and sucking jet pump already attached? I have an ‘06 ZHP.

  • Thanks for such a detailed DIY. Extremely helpful and made the job much easier. You're a legend! One point to consider updating - I think it's easier to remove the fuel rail with the injectors still attached. Otherwise you have to replace the o-rings (6 upper and 6 lower - £55 from BMW!) as mine leaked massively. If you do remove the rail from the injectors, then when reinstalling the clips which hold the injectors into the rail, its much easier to attach the clip to each injector and then push the injector up into the fuel rail (do one at a time) - then slot the whole lot into the manifold (bit of washing up liquid as lubricant and wiggle it - and the injectors should push home into the manifold). Mine were nasty - so new clips were only 50p each or so. Made it much easier to reinstall. I attached the fuel hose to the rail first. Thanks again - am about to follow your engine and transmission mount DIY - glad it's not just me that struggles to undo stuff on 15 year old cars!

    • +Spencer Gold Brilliant, I didn't think about putting the clips on the injectors first! Btw I've always found it too difficult to remove the injectors while they are still in the rail on this car. Other cars, sure, but for some reason it's too difficult on mine. That's why I recommend doing it the way I did in the video. Btw silicone spray is also good to remove/reinstall the o-rings.

  • The Brake Booster long hose 05:38 has to be with the manifold BEFORE you install it. You cannot connect it after. Goes behind the lower bracket and needs a clamp too. Thanks 50's kid. You are a BIMMER HERO..

  • Hey guys- Great vid so grateful. Question. I have a hard pipe with an L connector boot coming from what seems like the fuel system down on the drivers side. Is that a vacuum line to be hooked to the open nipple on the rear of the intake manifold? I cant find any mention of it...yet its sitting there at the end of my reinstall.

  • Fantastic. I will be performing this task this weekend. We just bought 2004, and its got all the symptoms of a ripped diaphragm in the CCV. The vacuum in the crankcase is WAY too high. I can Barely remove the oil fill cap while the engine is running because the suction in there is so high. I sure appreciate the tutorial. Hopefully i can fish the new ccv through there .. now that I see how it works. If not .. I'm all over removing that intake manifold. Thank you , Thank you.

  • I find your videos really informative, I've replaced my ccv valve with an OEM unit, in one of your videos you mentioned drawing oil from the sump, this is happening now to my engine, before I install a one way valve that you suggested is there anything else I can do to encourage the diaphragm to function correctly. I installed new hoses and can't detect any leaks

  • Very helpful and easy to understand, only issue I have is that there is no torque specification on the throttle body and the 11 foot pounds I used broke the bolt off in my intake manifold, luckily I was able to get it out with channel locks and just replace the bolt but I was almost fucked from that

  • Thank you for the very informative video! You're the first channel I go to to check how to do something on my 330. I wanted to mention that at 2:58 you point out two ports for the hose to enter. The top port goes to a vacuum tank that's near the starter and controls the exhaust flappers that I think are only on the 330 models. I wouldn't know what would happen if you swapped the hoses, but just wanted to point that out.

  • The reassembly went smooth thanks for the detailed steps! But on restarting the top of my fuel injectors did not seat unto my old o-rings and the rail sprayed gas over and not through the fuel injectors. Had a gas puddle under the car. Would be a good idea to get new o-rings, or put oil on the o-rings before seating. There are some excellent re-manufactured OEM injectors out there (like GB) that take care of the cleaning, new filter insert, o-rings, and update worn internals. At about $25 each injector after core, this is an opportunity to refresh this part of the fuel system while putting things back together.

  • Totally awesome video. Thanks for the hard work and advice. One minor criticism: You take a somewhat cavalier approach to repairing a rubber cap that fits over an unused vacuum source on the bottom of the intake manifold. I have had those get brittle, crack, and fall off, resulting in yet another source of "too-lean" error codes. Assortments of replacement rubber caps are cheap, readily available, and good insurance. But, again, great job. Thanks.😀
