    Hi
    I need two new solenoid valves to my F355, one for the air injection system and one to my by-pass valve. Ferrari part id 159177 (same solenoid part to both systems)

    As this looks very much as a standard part there might be interchangable parts. Any ideas?

    I bought this at the local BMW dealer in France while I was there. It is the same with the same connector (several connectors exist, but this is a direct fit). Paid only 25 euro for it! I believe it is for several of the early 90ies BMWs like E36, E34 and E32. They run out of 12 V, and not 5V as most of the engine management do. Same for the original Ferrari valve. It is also 12V. So to make things easy, I removed the old valve at the rear under the car, fittet the vacuum hose directly to the T where one vacuum line goes to each muffler, and then installed the new "BMW" valve right next to the battery where the long hose goes to the rear from the accummulator tank. Took the wire in along the main wiring loom into the back side of the dash where all the cables go to the fuese box and wired it right onto the new EXHST switch I got laser etched from Czech Carplastix. Works like a champ! It is great to be able to open and close manually regardless of running conditions. You have to drive like an idiot on public roads to make the flaps open in standard configuration.
