Hi, this is Bo, an auto expert on RepairPal's Car Genius team! The VANOS system on your BMW is known to cause some headaches, but replacing it will restore that signature BMW smoothness. If your check engine light is specifically calling for a VANOS solenoid replacement, that’s a good place to start—and far cheaper than a full system replacement. Go to repairpal.com and Look for a European car specialist; this is a finicky, high-stakes job where experience with BMWs pays off. Best to get it done right the first time!
