Positioned above the intake camshaft, this shaft is rotated by the Valvetronic servomotor to infinitely vary the intake valve lift, effectively replacing the traditional throttle body for engine load control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eThe eccentric shaft is a precision-engineered component that must operate with minimal friction. A common failure point in N55 engines is the wear of the gear teeth where the servomotor engages, or \"pitting\" on the needle bearing surfaces. When this shaft wears down or binds, it typically triggers \"Limp Mode,\" a \"Drivetrain Malfunction\" warning, and fault codes related to Valvetronic sluggishness or positioning errors. Because replacement requires the removal of the fuel injectors and the engine valve cover, it is a significant technical undertaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eVehicle Compatibility:\u003c\/b\u003e This shaft is designed for the \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"54\"\u003eN55\u003c\/b\u003e engine across a wide range of E, F, and early G-chassis models:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003e3 Series (E90 \/ F30 \/ F34):\u003c\/b\u003e 2011–2016 (335i, 335i GT, ActiveHybrid 3)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003e5 Series (F10 \/ F07):\u003c\/b\u003e 2011–2017 (535i, 535i GT)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eX5 \u0026amp; X6 (E70 \/ F15 \/ E71 \/ F16):\u003c\/b\u003e 2011–2018 (35i, 40i models)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003e1 \u0026amp; 2 Series (E82 \/ F22 \/ F87):\u003c\/b\u003e 2011–2018 (135i, M235i, M2)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003e4 Series (F32 \/ F33 \/ F36):\u003c\/b\u003e 2014–2016 (435i)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,6,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,6,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eX3 \u0026amp; X4 (F25 \/ F26):\u003c\/b\u003e 2011–2017 (35i models)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardened Steel Alloy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSystem Type:\u003c\/b\u003e VALVETRONIC III\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BMW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48015720349935,"sku":"11377589883","price":8750.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0769\/7183\/5631\/files\/2013-F30-N55-Eccentric-Shaft.png?v=1773798093","url":"https:\/\/myty.co.za\/products\/eccentric-shaft-bmw-1-2-3-4-5-x-series-11-18","provider":"MYTY Auto Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
