Vanos fail is also common on the N54. I've had them all replaced so far - under warrantee of course. Your dealer's probably had to fix a lot of them so they (BMW) are probably getting nasty about about it. That's not to say you should give up. They just up the ante in terms of how persistant you have to be.
