No this wouldn't cause jerking but I've read somewhere about a vent pipe from the fuel tank system to the engine causing problems if it becomes blocked.

I can only suggest BMW or a Z3 being broken for parts.

Is there part of number 2#?(solenoid valve)?
I am afraid not. The garage supplied a complete new unit with the valve at a price of £248.02. excluding value added tax. I can only assume that you can only get the complete unit with the valve and the valve is not available as an individual part. With BMW this often happens with multiple part units. As the cars get older, to limit parts and increase costs this can happen. I found this out with a replacment Vanos unit which now contains half of the inlet and outlet gears meaning that you have to buy the other half of ther gears if you don't want to get gear rattle.

Can I put this valve from s52 or no?
Valve from S52 is shorter...

I am afraid that I cannot help with this question. Suggestions would be to see if you could borrow an S52 valve and see if it fits or ask BMW directly.
