Vanos kit help

[Jamie-innes]

Looking for a vanos kit for my 2007 3.0si coupe, can't seem to find much information but can these ones not be rebuilt?

Was going to get the o-rings done at its next service but if there's not much point on these I wont bother, i think I might be right in reading that its the older z4's that have the problem because of the design?

The Vanos on the SI engines is a different system and electronically controlled rather than oil pressure, so it doesn't have the same issues at all. The solenoids can fail, but that's a noticeable issue and throws an engine warning light too I believe,
