Need help doing vanos test with INPA

[JP1580]

Update (with status)
- VANOS test (using toolset32) -> FAIL (times out)
- VANOS pressure test -> FAIL

- Timing -> PASS
- VANOS Oil Flow Regulating Valve - 11367830341 -> replaced. Found what appears to be a clog.
- VANOS piston seals -> no nicks. Cleaned and reinstalled
- VANOS high pressure pump -> cleaned and reinstalled
- valve adjustment -> PASS
- VANOS high pressure valve -> disassembled, cleaned and rebuilt. Seems to be functional.

Planned:
- Valve cover gasket
- VANOS high pressure line
- VANOS Accumulator

If there are additional checks before I close the put the cover back on, let me know please.

Where did the stuff in the palm of your hand come from?

[JP1580]

It was shoved in the inlet portion on the oil flow regulating valve.

It was shoved in the inlet portion on the oil flow regulating valve.

Was made of metal?

Was it the regulator that supplies the vanos assembly or the regulator in the vanos valve block?

[JP1580]

Was made of metal? Yes. Think of the stainless steel scrubbers for pots and pans. It was shoved in the inlet hole (small OD)

Was it the regulator that supplies the vanos assembly or the regulator in the vanos valve block?

Yes

[ac427]

Yes

Yes, which?

[JP1580]

Yes, which?

My reply got buried in the "quote thing"

Picture is new replacement. I swapped my beisan o-rings.

All good. Thank you for replying.

Update:
- Valve cover gasket -> new complete
- VANOS high pressure line -> Rogue Engineering installed*
- VANOS Accumulator -> new complete
- Checked the timing tensioner since the area has oil seepage. Gave it a quick tug (torque wrench can't fit there.

* Does anyone know the proper routing and where to clamp the p-clamp. (Picture please of your p-clamp location)

- CPV valve installed. Tighten it until it stopped.
Anyone know when it's good enough (outside of check after I run the car)

A lot of updates, but what’s the vanos P measurement now?
