I might agree but I have none of the VANOS symptoms, the cars is smooth through out it's entire range, no hesitation. and I get good MPG. I did stethoscope where the VANOS was and no unusual noise. However I still wonder...
I did plan on doing VANOS even before I bought the car, looked at both Dr.VANOS and Beisan, I did a lot of Z4 research. I perhaps even went a bit crazy by making a list of parts and costs for things I knew I'd need/want to do to the car before I bought it.
So this leads me to ask, since it is something I did not read, will the VANOS make noise before the other symptoms appear?
I am gonna check the tensioners this weekend along with my other activities.
Thanks much for you input!
