Well after having the intake valves cleaned, catch can on back order from Mishimoto since the intake has oil residue in it. My car has the valvetronic servomotor tick and the gas milage is poor after one tank. The earlier codes of 2DCE and 2E0F have gone but cold idle on starts have been a nagging issue. After countless hours searching the web, it's time to replace the servomotor. Here in Canada we get shafted on parts, called the local BMW dealership for part cost, $541 for just the servomotor which the parts department guy mentions that it's a common failure (seems terrible). So this is my next part order! German Parts Canada has it on sale for just under $400, so I'll be buying it off them. Is VDO the only ones who manufacture this part? Also going to replace the seals when I'm in there.
