I’ll try to describe my problem as good as possible. I own a bmw 116i 2008. Since i bought it I have had some issues, but lately I have had trouble with a loss of power that leads the car into limp mode (I think, it’s a blinking check engine light). First I start the car, and when i gas it under...

Hi there... I have a fault with: INPA diagnostic: exhaust gas temperature sensor before cat - short circuit to B+ ... fault code 4030. DIS diagnostic: exhaust back pressure sensor before particulate filter and trouble code P0545. Now, can someone please tell me what sensor it is exactly...

2012 F11 520D N47 I have an intermittent fault which is bringing up a drive warning and I am extracting a pending trouble code "0546 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Circuit High Bank 1 Sensor 1" Looking at realoem there are two sensors which monitor Exhaust gas temperature, one in the top of...

Hello everyone, First off all, English is not my main language but i'll try my best to get myself clear. Imagine i'm driving around 1700rpm, I step the gas pedal down (full throttle), I notice the turbo opening around 1900rpm but after 2500rpm (sometimes is 3000rpm, other times is 2300rpm, its...

On the back of the recent post 'boot pop' I've just realised that my struts are knackered. If I open the boot usin the key fob it just unlocks but doesn't lift up. Never thought much of it but actually it would be really useful if the boot opened without me having to lift it, especially if I'm...

It has come to my attention that the air con in my 62 BMW 320d sport could do with regassing as it's not getting very cold. Where would you guys recommend I take it Sytner Sheffield full diagnostic, antibacterial clean,drain and recharge £99 or Mr Clutch ( group on) antibacterial clean and...

As per title

Hi all, My 2012 F10 is misbehaving with a Drivetrain Fault coming on with corresponding power loss. Had a look into system with Rheingold and only faults where 2 codes pointing at "Exhaust Gas Pressure Regulator- position control valve too wide open/negative control range". Anyone got a pic of...

Any help would be much appreciated!! I have a BMW 525d E60, which has the engine light on. I had the code read- P0401 Insufficient Gas Recirculation. This weekend i have replaced the EGR which made no difference and the code re-appeared after clearing. There is a vacuum coming from the EGR...

Having problems with my air conditioning on an E53 but INPA shows no errors. Does anyone know if it would highlight low on gas? Thanks

Hi I have a problem for some time now ... the car shakes at idle and is very noisy, sometimes it has no power at all in acceleration, in acceleration its very loud , the noise and vibration sometimes disappears and then returns - in this period the rpm starts to fluctuate. . I changed 3...

Hi there, I already have the replacements in hand, but wanted to know if there was a 'proper' method for getting the duff struts off. Is it simply a matter of prising the joints off the ball with flathead?

FOR SALE I have a pair of rear shocks for E31 840/850. Brand new, boxed, never fitted. These are for non-sport models as shown. £145 + post

Hi All, I could do with a new set of gas struts for the bonnet. Where would be the best place to buy them? tried Europarts - no luck Thanks

Hi all, I was hoping someone here may be able to help confirm my suspicion that my DPF back pressure sensor is faulty. I first suspected something was wrong after having witnessed (and initiated) a full DPF regen using BMWhat (Carly). I saw the soot mass drop from around 40g down to 3g (but no...

Hi folks, I've just collected my 630 from the LPG specialist after its gas conversion. Prior to conversion I've averaged 30-31 mpg, after a week or two I'll report back with new figures. I do about 20k miles a year, so hoping to recover the conversion cost in about a year. Still drives great...

Hello, I have a fault on my car which I am struggling to get rid of, critically it is preventing the DPF from regenerating: 4030 Which seems to mean one of these things depending on DDE version: EGT (exhaust gas temperature) Before Cat - Open Circuit or Short Circuit to B+ Exhaust...
