The first thing is u have to take the cylinder head to a machine shop to check and resurface the head then double check that the piston is ok and double check on the timing marks before re-installation

How to fix egr valve on 2003 Suzuki

EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) valve helps to reduce the exhaust emission of automobiles. It recycles some gases discharged from the engine by returning them to the intake manifold, where the engine can burn these gases again, thus reducing emissions.
The exhaust gas recirculation valve is located in the engine compartment (under the hood). Most engines need exhaust gas recirculation to meet emission standards. If the exhaust gas recirculation valve is broken, the car will not pass the exhaust. My Suzuki Jimny has had such a question before, so I am more qualified to answer this question

Bmw e39 m54 engine defective cam sensors make car impossible to start because very low compression>

Lots of guesswork here.
Firstly, have you checked for compression on all cylinders.
If compression is low or non exisistant then you have a major problem probably caused by the timing chain slipping and causing damage to the valves /pistons etc
I would do this first.

I have 99 bmw 323i.i ran it hot and got prob fixed and now the eml and a triangle with circle around it comes on dash and car has no power.feels like it has a rev limiter.wats wrong with my car

have throttle body checked also the MDK throttle motor,
make sure that the dealer has followed service bulletin 12 07 99 for procedure to replace the MDK throttle motor
also have them check for codes,here are some codes,
it could be an expensive job,have them check everything,it is most likely the throttle motor,,throttle body is 600 if they switch it,dont let them do it without checking throttle motor,

How to fix 2002 BMW M3 service code 11360212. The code says solenoid valve for camshaft adjusting unit Permanent failure. What part needs to be replaced or repaired?

the problem will be in the unit that is attached to the end of the cam shaft that is driven by the timing belt/chain. It is hydraulically controlled by a solenoid that gets the signal from the ECM. Replacement of the unit by an accredited specialist will be the fix.
The unit changes the valve timing by advancing or retarding the cam shaft in accordance to engine RPM

How do i reset camshaft servodriver on 2006 535xi

use the FSM, buy one, it covers this. reset what is reset?
does the book say reset>?
what country.
here we (USA)
login to alldata.com and see that. if there is that.
not the engine for E60/61? car?
four-cylinder petrol
six-cylinder petrol (my guess) N54 ? my guess is this.....
V8 petrol
V10 petrol (M5)
four-cylinder diesel
six-cylinder diesel
my guess is based on.....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_N54

M54?
no symptoms posted, zero
no context, doing what? and why?

no 535xi in my book just 530xi.
N54 engine.

servo ? you mean VVT or
VANOS (abbr. from German variable Nockenwellensteuerung)?
this, and is it a turbo?
535xi 3.0L 6-cyl.
VVT parts? is that it?
the VALVETRONIC system.?

please ID exact engine, and say symptoms or service you are doing.

ill stop. here and post this, are you here?

http://www.carthrottle.com/10-surprisingly-unreliable-cars/

If FSM free, why do that with a $50,000 car??? odd that.?
if desperate, try google. using the N54 (or as approp.)
in the search, and guess what lots of hits.
how about VANOS N54

Oil coming out from the middle of my 316 se 2002 plate

Common oil leaks on a 3 series are:
1) Power steering hoses. If you have not yet replaced any power steering hoses on a 2002 I can almost promise you that one or more of them are leaking.
2) Valve cover gasket. Same comment as above. This tends to leak on the exhaust manifold side and stink like burned plastic as the synthetic oil burns on the manifold.
3) Oil line to the VANOS.
4) Oil filter housing.
Oil from any of these leaks will tend to move rearward as it makes its way to the ground.

I am thinking of buying a W reg e46 318i which has a small problem. When it is first started up it coughs a bit and the rev counter is not stable flicks up and down and does both until warm.

Sounds like a VANOS problem. If you have $70.00 (American Dollars) and about 8 hours of time (at most) you can replace the VANOS seals. Here's a place to buy them:

http://www.beisansystems.com/

You might as well change the valve cover gasket as well since you have to take the valve cover off to access the VANOS.

Hope this helps!

How to replace a broken timing belt

Daewoo has interference engines in them, so if the timing belt broke while the engine was running, you will need to replace half of the valves which were bent when the pistons crashed into them when the cams stopped turning and the crank shaft continued to turn. Minimum of $700-1000.00 (usually more). If you do it all yourself and the valve guides are not damaged, still at least $400.00 worth of parts to fix. Pull plastic air dams around bottom of engine on front and right side . Support engine with jack. Drain antifreeze from engine and radiator. remove air filter housing and serpentine belt. remove front engine mount. remove cam belt cover. remove broken cam belt and check cam tensioner bearings and idler bearing as well. They are usually bad. Then remove spark plug cover. Remove valve cover. Remove intake from head. remove coil from head. remove heat shield from exhaust manifold then remove manifold from exhaust and from head. remove water hoses and connecting assemblies from side of head and rear of head. remove Cam shaft bearing caps loosening them all evenly so as not to bend cams. remove cams. remove head bolts. remove head. remove valve hydraulic lifters, compress valve springs and remove valve retainers and dissassemble valves. Clean everything very well. Make sure head is not damaged. Remove valve guide seals. install new valve guide seals, new valves. Seat valves with valve grinding compound. clean well. instal valves in reverse order of dissasembly. Before putting head on, make sure number 1 cylinder is at top dead center position. install head using proper torque of 18 ft # in a spiral application rotation from the center outward in a clockwise direction. Then do spiral rotation again tightening bolts each one-quarter turn. Repeat the tightening process two more times only turning the bolts one-quarter turn each time. Use new head bolts. They are designed to stretch in the process of installation and are not to be re-used. Align cams to proper orientation then bolt into place. do not overtorque cam bearing cap bolts. Less than 5 ft # of torque can stretch these bolts. Snug them then tighten them 90 degrees. Then tighten them another 90 degrees (quarter turn). Snug them all then go back and tighten all of them a quater turn, then go back and tighten all of them another quarter turn. Install the cam idler and tensioner and install the cam belt. then install the intake, exhaust and all other items in reverse order of assembly. Do not turn engine over unless you are sure you have the cam belt on with the crank shaft pulley aligned at top dead center and the intake and exhauste pulley marks aligned to their proper marks with the cam belt properly tensioned. You can't be even one tooth off. This must be right before you turn the engine over! Remove spark plugs and turn engine over by hand two rotation clockwise using a wrench on the center bolt of the crank shaft pulley. Check that the timing of cams is still perfect. If not, correct, retension cam belt, double check timing positions again then rotate engine two revolutions. Check cam timing positions again. The timing should not change! The engine should turn over relatively easily. If it feels like it doesn't want to turn, don't force it. You may have the timing off and be pressing a piston against a valve. If you are at this point, then you need to remove cam belt and unbolt cam shafts to release all tension on any of the valves. return the number one cylinder to top dead center position and then reinstall the cams and cam belt. Once it is assembled and in time, then reattatch the rest of the components that were removed in dissassembly. Do this in reverse order of dissassembly. then connect battery and fill radiator fluid. Start car.
