What This Kit Does
The BMW DISA system controls airflow inside the intake manifold by switching between intake runners of different lengths and diameters. At lower and medium engine speeds, longer and narrower runners support torque, while at higher RPM the system redirects airflow through shorter and wider runners to support engine power.
Over time, the original plastic internal components can wear. The connection between the flap and actuator lever may become loose, allowing the flap to move freely and produce rattling or clicking noises. This repair kit replaces the vulnerable internal components with an aluminum flap, aluminum gear and reinforced hardware.
