There is step by step manual with test file

Could a faulty / not adjusted VANOS pressure regulating valve cause this?

Tonight I ruled out:
- solenoid pack resistance is within spec (bought it from Beisan and they helped me troubleshoot it)
- the wiring harness is not shorting to ground.
that the wiring harness doesn't have a short

previous ans:
2. how do you know vanos pressure not built up? Must install a P gauge on the vanos banjo bolt to verify.

Good copy on the pressure gauge.
Got this setup coming in any minute now.
I'm tracking the thread is a M10 x 1.
I checked the forum and didn't get confirmation on the external thread start to the flat part where the crush washer contact.
Looking for confirmation:
- the 30mm in the picture: is it will enough thread length for the setup?
- what is the cold idle temp pressure should be? I'm tracking the sweet spot I need to be at at warm idle is 1500psi -1700psi? Planning to get at 1600psi if I need to adjust it.

Will post a status update.

From Google AI mode: the factory bolt total L = 19mm


The factory VANOS oil line banjo bolt for the BMW E46 M3 (S54 engine) has the following exact specifications: [1, 2]

• Thread Size & Pitch: M10 x 1.0 mm (Fine thread)
• Total Length: 19 mm
• Thread Length: Approximately 11 mm
• BMW Factory Part Number: 07119905175 (Listed as a "Hollow Bolt")
• Crush Washer Specification: Requires A10x13,5-CU copper crush washers (10mm inner diameter)
• Target Operating Pressure: The internal S54 VANOS system is regulated to a target pressure of 100 bar to 115 bar (approx. 1,450 to 1,660 psi)
