Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is actually Raymond. And I'm an owner of a 2001 Bmw Z3 2.5L.

Hi Raymond, welcome from me near Lincoln, UK. I'm guessing that as you have a 2.5 Z3 you're over in the US somewhere?

Yes sir. And well I'm about to do a bunch of small fixes. First being the disa valve. Any advice for me? I'm hoping that by replacing the valve it'll get rid of the idle problem that sometimes happens. It goes high then low. Up and down. Not sure if it's the disa though.

A very common issue with these old cars is air/ vaccuum leaks on the inlet side of the motor. Also a good investment would be a Code reader to check for any stored trouble codes in the OBC. You need to connect to the round port in the engine bay for all other than motor faults and Auto Trans which can be read from the port under the dashboard above the hood release.

Oh so I need that reader as well?

to the Forum from West Cumbria, England. A code reader is a good investment otherwise you could be chasing your tail trying to fix stuff, not too expensive
