DUAL VANOS Anti Rattle Kit AR-003 for BMW E36 E39 E46 E53 E60 E83 E85 M52tu M54 M56

I used beisans vanos kit for the rings and seals but it did not come with the needle bearings so I ordered this just for the needle bearings. Can't see them in action because they're in my vanos but my car runs very nice now and no vanos rattle so I'm happy

Stopped the axial movement of the vanos gears. I didn't have a rattle as mine only had 127k when I did the repair but after 6k miles, they seem good. Regretfully all these anti rattle "kits" are super overpriced and it's ridiculous. $74 for a couple washers seems like something the stealership would do.

Product and cost were great

This wasn’t the quickest of jobs, takes time. Really easy though, great bearings. I would definitely advise getting a new valve cover gasket while you are there, I re-used my 2 month old gasket and it sprung a small leak... bmw 325i 2001.

One of the rings is slightly bigger and wouldn’t fit to the vanos cylinders. When I informed the seller, they appeared to be condescending towards my finding. Bought another kit from another seller and fits perfectly. If you can’t take any input from your customers, you wouldn’t get my business.

They are what you need if you have a vanos rattle and its a perfect fit in 2001 330ci m54 motor

Worked like a champ

Exact part replacement. Went together well. Noise free after a hundred miles!
