Valvetronic is BMW's variable intake valve lift system. BMW uses it to control engine speed and reduce pumping losses, increasing fuel economy and power. It consists of an eccentric shaft and electric motor that the camshaft's followers ride on. All the parts are located under the cylinder head cover or in the cylinder head. Where Honda's old V-TEC had one step change from cam lobe to cam lobe at a preset rpm, Valvetronic, in conjunction with VANOS (BMW's variable valve timing), is infinitely variable based on engine speed and load, etc.
if your mini is the non-turbo version, most likely it is caused by a loose gas cap. if your engine is running a bit sluggish or rough, it may be the valvetronic motor drive. although the best way to find out is to take your car to the nearest mini dealer.
Valvetronic is BMW's name for its variable valve lift technology. It can vary the amount of lift at the valve to suet the needs of the motor. It consists of an eccentric shaft that is moved by an electric motor, increasing/decreasing the amount of lift at the valve. There are youtube videos and in-depth descriptions on how it works. FYI, BMWs also use it to control engine speed, the Throttle body on BMW engines is there as a safety feature required by law and is actually open 100% when the engine is running. This reduces pumping losses, increasing HP and MPG.
An electric motor is an electromechanical energy conversion devicewhereas an electric drive is that which involves control of speed or position of the motor.
drive over what ?
drive usually makes the motor go
motor can be control by using variable frequency drive
Yes, if you drive with the power steering empty of fluid and the motor locks up, it can actually rip the belt from the motor. You can damage belts and the steering motor if you drive with the power steering empty.
