Z4 starter replacement & intake cleaning

rocky79 · 08-04-2016, 01:33 PM

Hello,

I am in the process of replacing my starter so I had to remove the intake manifold to get to it.
My question is what else I should replace while the intake is out. Intake rubber seals? any thing else?

Thank you in advance.

You should have seals for intake and the throttle body. If less than 80k on the vehicle, I don't even bother replacing them. They seal quite well.

Don't the mileage on the car. I would replace things you can see with intake manifold out. Usually heater hoses and PCV.
