Hey guy I could use help.

2011 N55 developed a VC gasket leak around 50K miles. No squealing at this time.

I replaced the whole VC to avoid a future PVC failure. No oil leak, but now I have the squealing noise, only once the engine is fully warm.

Thought it was a defective VC (URO Parts from Rock Auto). Got a replacement. Installed replacement. Same issue.

Can I be overlooking something in my installation that would cause this?

What are the chances of two defective brand new units in a row? Seems odd.

I am about to demand a refund and order a genuine BMW VC.

Anything I should check on?

Car has a BMS oil catch can and JB4.

Thanks!
