What to do now the guy in the bw tune reckoned if I replaced the crank sensor that most of the other faults would go away. I thought if crank sensor was not right that the car would not run at all.

Tank ventilation valve can be 'fixed' by fitting a 1 kilohm resistor in place of the sensor.

They are available from BMW.

I'd be surprised if the engine runs at all if the crank sensor is duff.
