2004 BMW 530i Check Engine Light Code, 2882, 2883, P0171, P0174 Lean Bank 1, Lean Bank 2
It's a little difficult to see this hose under the intake manifold with a camera that's why I skipped showing the smoke test. If you have any questions feel free to leave it in the comments and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

    Thank you after taking my 530i 2004 to some crooks they tried to get me for a switch in my transmission $154 part $4200 then an oil pan re seal $2200 I asked for oil change I did have a small leak by the oil filter nothing serious..So they changed my oil charged$125 for looking at my transmission I asked for a fluid change 188,k no check lights just needed oil tires and faulty I drive …They charged $810 for oil change install tires I bought wheel alignment and A.C recharge…They were trying to get me for much more but I knew my car was taken care by the previous owners…1 day of light driving Service engine soon light comes in with these same codes… Keep in mind I never had any lights come in besides passenger airbag after spilling soda on the seat…. Mechanic shops are not here to help you … Lucky I will never take my car back to these Quacks

    Where could I find these hoses

    It's a crappy BMW, do you need to reprogram the car to "accept" the new pipe?

    The oldest video I've ever seen for you.

    Imagine paying this much for a car and this stuff happens.

    Спасибо. Я так и думал.

    Good vid

    We need more of these…

    Had an E46 with that same M54 engine. The engineer/designer of the PVC or PCC or PVV… whatever BMW calls it (CCV!), is evil. Those hoses and pipes and the separator itself fails after some time due to the heat (environment or engine). And such a PAIN to get to. I'm very surprised it was only that pipe. Usually if one goes, the other will follow very shortly. And the DISA unit… I'm almost positive i bent a rod on a miss or detonation from that thing leaking (built-in gasket shrinks as it ages and leaks, and don't ever remove an older one unless you silicone it to death or replace it with a new unit). Strong engine, but its supplemental systems, holy hell!

    Hey I have a question for you umm I have a 2004 x3 2.5i i changed the same parts as u and i did the diagnosis and it says DME: Mixture preparation bank 1 and bank 2

    Hello Dr. O!! 😜

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Martyn H says:

    I have both lean codes on my 2004 525i. I also have a small oil leak somewhere. Maybe if that same hose is the culprit it could leak oil near the dipstick end? I'm going to check but it's too cold right now (10 deg F outside)!

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gibran Carrillo says:

    Thanks for the tip great video

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bilal Tofeq says:

    does effect the transmission performance?

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Melvin Johnson says:

    The diagram is a perfect BMW example of "over engineered."

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Michy S says:

    Hey there, I have the same car 530i 2006 will the pcv Val e be on the same location as this one ?

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars moinmoin says:

    Another problem these have is they freeze. And then the engine sucks oil…
    There's a isolated version I'd put in if I change anything on the system.

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars CARS LOVER says:

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Oscar Garica says:

    I have a question for you my car a 2005 bmw 530i e60 has that same code the bank too lean or something like that. what should I do? or do you happen to know how much a mechanic would charge to fix something like thay?

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Pete Miller says:

    Hi Eric, Just subscribed to your videos. Great job. I am a retired mechanic of 40 years. I have learned a lot from watching  what you do. So when you think you know it all, guess what, you don't. Continue the good work.

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics says:

    Can't believe you touched that thing with a 10-foot pole! Customer received the proper "Euro surcharge" on the invoice right?

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeffrey Battousai Strader says:

    Eric you should have seen my wife's Peugeot 505………………..Wasn't NOTHING on that thing cheap to fix!

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeffrey Battousai Strader says:

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Upallnight says:

    I like to refer to them as B M Trouble U or BMUU (BM double U's). LOL
    FYI BMW refer to it as a CCV system not a PVC system.

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Rykahnz says:

    Would it be the exact same problem in an E46 325i for code 2883??

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Nick Nicu says:

    BMW and vacuum leaks?! That's unheard-of!!! I always thought they're designed to suck air thru multiple ports! LOL!

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars u johan says:

    Thanks for the answer I was surprised when I saw one. Do not buy one BMW cheap on gasoline expensive on oil bad engineering. Or is it like the MOOG Chinese parts, price is not getting higher but quality does get worse they hiding inflation.

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars u johan says:

    Forgot to mention great videos a viewer from Sweden

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars u johan says:

    Have you had a BMW with high oil consumption complain, I own one and changed the PCV hoses because they get clogged in cold weather. But no change in consumption smells burned oil in hill climbing or trailer behind so my take on that is piston ring.
    Valve seals could also be a problem but I notice no oil at idle (no smoke) or smell.
    Just curious if you run in to this problem and had a  fix.

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Terry Beharry says:

    hm… simple fix…. nice

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars toyo toe says:

    Thanks for this video.  Is the rubber pipe connected to the vacuum assist power brakes the best one to remove and put smoke into?  Or does smoke specifically have to put into the PCV system?

    No problem hope it helps. Wish I did a little more in depth on it. Subscribe to get all the current videos!
