Description: This video goes over the valve adjustment procedure on the BMW S54 engine. You should be checking and adjusting the valves every 20-30k miles (in the video I had it confused since the 1st valve adjustment needs to be done at 15-20k miles and then its every 20k-30k miles). I have various links below for the parts needed as well as other videos and information that will help with this DIY. Here are the clearance measurements: Intake: 0.18mm - 0.23mm. (0.007in - 0.009in) Exhaust: 0.28mm - 0.33mm (0.011in - 0.013in) Parts: Valve Adjustment Kit by ECS (Shims, Tools, VCG): click.linksynergy.com/link?id=BZfgVZ7JGM8&offerid=981891.18780524316&type=2&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ecstuning.com%2Fb-assembled-by-ecs-parts%2Fbuild-your-own-valve-adjustment-kit%2F-space-s54vadjpdk%7Edk%2F S54 Special Crank Socket (Check if you need it): click.linksynergy.com/link?id=BZfgVZ7JGM8&offerid=981891.12221755948&type=2&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ecstuning.com%2Fb-genuine-bmw-parts%2Fcrankshaft-socket%2F83300491056%2F Digital Caliper: click.linksynergy.com/link?id=BZfgVZ7JGM8&offerid=981891.19056174706&type=2&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ecstuning.com%2Fb-schwaben-parts%2Fschwaben-6-stainless-steel-digital-caliper%2F019732sch01a%2F Videos: How to remove the clutch fan and fan shroud: youtube.com/watch?v=frDb4OuC0Oo Valve Cover Gasket DIY: youtu.be/N79ht_cSBv0 S54 Playlist (Vanos and More): youtube.com/playlist?list=PLienVx9Y3OszJcTDpeZY3Vc0_7sIktkEB Ultimate E46 M3 Torque Values Guide: drive.google.com/file/d/1elAiZFD7rKL4bsivtVGPtylbmWtRxIYW/view?usp=sharing Support my channel by becoming a member using this link: youtube.com/channel/UC5jnm5CEnLSEmoQ-ktgAj6g/join My Amazon Store: amazon.com/shop/shoplifetv Buy My Merchandise: shoplifetv.com Ask me a question: shoplifetv.com Request a Shop Appointment: shoplifetv.com Instagram: @ShopLifeTV instagram.com/shoplifetv My vlog channel: youtube.com/c/shoplifevlogs Youtube Business Inquires: Email me amotorwerks@gmail.com Disclaimer: Some links will contain affiliate links. 00:00 Intro 00:42 What is a valve adjustment? 01:24 How often do you need to do them? 02:38 Important Info 03:13 Prerequisites 03:50 Tools Required 05:04 Beginning of Procedure 09:49 Measuring Clearances 13:30 Removing Shims 15:00 Measuring Shim With Caliper 15:38 Putting in New Shim 20:13 Rechecking Clearance 21:07 Final Tips
