These parts replace the OEM swirl flaps that are found in the air intake of diesel engines before the intake valves.The swirl flaps have the role of creating a swirl effect in the cylinders that helps in more complete combustion, resulting in lower fuel consumption and a surplus of power at low and medium speeds and loads.The OEM parts have a very low rigidity due to the constructive solution, which leads to their premature wear that causes them to break and fall into the engine, completely destroying the engine.The new constructive solution guarantees the elimination of the danger of engine destruction without changing its operating parameters.The package contains:4x Flaps4x Actuator arms4x Screws4x Sealing rings4x Locking fuses

OEM flaps have the shaft secured with small screws that loosen from heat cycles and end up in the intake tract, destroying the engine. Our design has the flap and shaft as a single piece — there are no screws to come loose.
A mechanic experienced with BMW diesels installs the set in 2–3 hours. It requires removing the intake manifold.
Yes. The kit includes shaft seals for sealing the flap shaft.
Yes, we recommend the Victor Reinz M47 Gasket Set and the EGR gasket.

    Hello, do these valves also fit this car model? I noticed in the specifications that they are listed as being suitable only for models manufactured between 2004 and 2006. Thank you very much; I look forward to your reply.

    Bună ziua aceste clapete se potrivesc și pe acest model de mașină că am văzut că la specificații apare că se potrivesc doar pe modelele realizate din 2004 -2006? Mulțumesc mult aștept răspunsul dumneavoastră

    Hello, our intake valves are compatible with all M47 engines, regardless of the car model. Thank you!

    Buna ziua, clapetele noastre de admisie se potrivesc pe toate motoarele M47, indiferent de modelul de masina. Va multumim!

    I’d like to leave a review too, nearly five years after fitting them to my car. They look exactly as they did on the day they were fitted. I haven’t noticed any improvement in how the car drives, as the original valves were in perfect condition to begin with; I had them replaced as a precaution, and I’d have no hesitation in recommending them!

    Vreau sa las si eu o recenzie dupa aproape 5 ani de cand le am pe masina. Arata exact ca in prima zi de montaj. N am simtit vreo imbunatatire in sensul cum merge masina pentru ca si inainte aveam clapetele originale in stare perfecta, le am schimbat preventiv, recomand fara probleme montarea lor!

    It’s exactly as I thought… I mean, no difference at all… :-)) over 2,400 revs. Up to that point, though, it runs well; it pulls much more smoothly and starts to perform better from 1,600, meaning it feels much better in exactly the rev range where I mostly use it. I have to say, even the smell of the exhaust fumes has changed – no joke. What someone wrote in a review, that it used to be like a 1.9 SDI, isn’t true. But there’s definitely a difference; I’m glad I decided to fit them. If I head out of town, I’ll check – I reckon it’ll affect fuel consumption a little bit too. Thanks!

    Este exact cum m.am gandit...adica nici o diferenta.... :-)) peste 2400 rotatii. Pana acolo in schimb merge , trage mult mai linear,incepe sa mearga mai bine de la 1600,adica se simte mai ok exact in plaja de turatie,unde.l folosesc in mare parte. Trebuie sa zic,s a schimbat si mirosul gazelor de esapament,fara glume. Ce mai scria unu in review ,ca inainte era ca un 1.9 sdi,nu e adevarat. Dar clar este diferenta,ma bucur ca m.am decis sa le montez. Daca o sa ies inafara orasulului o sa verific,cred ca o sa influenteze si consumul intr.o mica masura. Multumesc!

    Hello, I’d like to fit them myself – could you perhaps give me a brief guide on what I need to do? I should point out that my flaps have been cut and don’t have any plugs. Can they still be fitted if I’ve cut the flaps on the inside?

    Buna ziua, as vrea sa le montez eu, daca iti putea sa imi spuneti un mic tutorial la ce ar trebui sa fac. Precizez ca, clapetele mele sunt taiate n au nici dop. se mai pot pune daca am taiate clapetele din interior?

    Hello, here’s a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okUyCLEgEpo&t=5s&ab_channel=ReDoSolutions Yes, they can still be fitted. You just need the plastic bracket from the old flap.

    Buna ziua, avem aici un video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okUyCLEgEpo&t=5s&ab_channel=ReDoSolutions Da, se mai pot monta. Aveti nevoie doar de suportul de plastic al vechii clapete.

    Good afternoon, I’d like to share my experience from the perspective of someone who has tested the method – which is heavily promoted even by some mechanics – of deactivating the intake valves. Removing them clearly leads to a drop in engine torque at low revs, down to 2000 rpm (even above that, the engine no longer has the same oomph as before), but having had the chance to drive on a long journey, this lack of torque – and I believe even power – is particularly noticeable when overtaking, where I was used to being confident in what this make can deliver (provided it is properly maintained), that is, that continuous build-up of power and torque across the entire rev range. With the throttle valves deactivated, this is completely absent; it runs like a 1.9 SDI. I refitted the intake valves after receiving the new kit, and ‘life’ returned to my car’s engine, without countless software modifications and deactivations. I go by the principle that “it was designed this way, so it should work”. Thanks for the kit – a very good idea, much appreciated by the BMW community who care about this brand.

    Buna ziua, Impartasesc experienta din punctul de vedere al persoanei care a testat si varianta foarte promovata chiar si de unii mecanici de a anula clapetele de admisie. Anularea acestora duc in mod evident la scaderea cuplului motor la turatii joase, pana la 2000RPM (chiar si peste motorul nu mai are aceea vlaga de dinainte), insa avand sansa de a conduce pe drum lung , aceasta lipsa de cuplu si cred chiar si de putere se resimte in special la depasiri unde in mod obisnuit eram invatat cu siguranta ce il poate oferii acest brand (in cazul in care este intretinut corect), adica sa fie aceea dezvoltare de putere si cuplu continua pe toata plaja de turatii. Cu anularea clapetelor acesta este lipsita cu desavarsire, functioneaza ca un 1.9 SDI. Am remontat clapetele de admisie dupa primirea kit-ului nou, "viata" revenind in motorul autoturismului meu, fara n-spe mii de modificari de soft si anulari. Sunt pe principiul "asa a fost proiectat, as trebuie sa functioneze". Mersi pentru kit, idee foarte buna si apreciata de comunitatea BMW care ingrijesc acest brand.

    Hello. No, we don’t offer an installation service. But it’s a simple job; the trickiest part is removing and refitting the intake manifold on the car.

    Buna ziua. Nu, noi nu oferim montaj. Dar este operatiune simpla, cel mai dificil lucu fiind demontarea / montarea galeriei de admisie pe masina.

    I’d like to know what materials are used for the flaps, rods and screws. I haven’t bought them yet! Thank you

    Aș dori să știu ce materiale sunt folosite pt clapete, tije si șuruburi. Încă nu am cumpărat! Mulțumesc

    The flaps and actuator arms are made of the same material: stainless steel.

    Clapetele si bratele de actionare sunt din acelasi material, otel inoxidabil.
