Got a bmw e90 318i 2007. Petrol Automatic.

When i start the car in the morning, it starts, idles rough then cuts out. After maybe 2-3 goes it runs.

I ran obd tool. It said cam sensor on exhaust. So i changed it.
Same issue remains.

Ran inpa, this says 2b63, same fault. But i have changed the part.

So i ran ista, this shows 2b62, cam sensor on intake.

Spoke to a friend who believes the timing chain may have jumped a notch and the timing in off, but inpa/ista says nothing to that effect?


Someone else is saying change the vanos non return valves( not the vanos solenoids) but i cannot find this part on bmw oem as a part.

Can is still running rough on start up, not always starting on first go. And sometimes needle is bouncing up and down on idle.

I would really appreciate any advice insight.
i have ordered another cam sensor to replace on the intake just to eliminate.
Thoughts please?
I believe the part number you are looking for is:

11111734667.

However, most people on will be less familiar with 318's so take the recommended fixes with a grain of salt. They are looking at your problem through the lens of an N52 engine.
Hello, thanks for the reply.

Is this a check valve or a non return valve filter?

Does head need to be removed to change this?

I have the second cam sensor for the intake coming on tue, after i replace this, you are saying I need to get this part that you have shown and replace that also? How many pieces do i need?

Is that what is causing the fault moving from exhaust to intake cam sensor and causing the rough starts and rough idle?
