+ mpowermotorsports UK rebuilds. They should last forever. Always replace both TVA units plus the Fuel Tank Breather Valve.

If you get the BMW or VDO TVA units they will fail again in 60-80k miles. You have to pay for the labor each time too.

The electronics fail, which is the weak link...the soft gears are a secondary issue.

The OEM TVAs used to cost $1400 each, then $1100, and now $600-700. BMW never redesign the flaws in the TVAs.
