Here a detailed account.

I've cleaned the VANOS solenoids twice first at 145K (when a trouble code appeared) and again at 200,000 (during my 200K tune up). I've decided a 50,000 mile interval for VANOS solenoid cleaning.

This you'll find interesting too:

Other than the AC pump dying at 85K, it's been the normal E90 stuff (WP, T-stat, etc.)
