BMW Serie 5 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Engine
Operation: Check for engine intake air loss

If a leak occurs in the engine air intake system, the engine delivery will become very erratic with a tendency to shut down. This can be verified by trying to simulate the failure, or by deliberately creating a leak and consequently evaluating the behavior of the motor. On the intake manifold there is a small rubber sleeve fixed with a clamp: if the sleeve is extracted with the engine running, it will start to have irregular bursts until it switches off. In the same way it will be possible to verify how the delivery becomes more and more regular as the sleeve approaches its seat.
