My 2019 BMW X5 displays an overheating warning and advises me to drive moderately, subsequently entering limp mode. Has anyone encountered this issue?

Read this; it might be useful.

Indeed! Thank you for the apology.

If trading in you will never get top price, for that you have to put some effort in and sell yourself.

The front camber is non-adjustable. Furthermore, they have not addressed the back geometry.

Thank you very much.

Greetings, Thank you; I will investigate it. Successfully retrieved information from a decoder that references Turbo.

BMW 1 SERIES (2011) 2.0 118d M Sport Coupe 2-door Diesel Manual Euro 5 (143 ps) I did not get an owner's handbook or service history booklet, which I have enquired about. I can search for most information online, however it would be beneficial to learn about Alarm/Audio systems, among other topics. I have previously commented about a problem with the Start/Stop feature and got prompt responses. I saw today that there is a message indicating the passenger airbag is off. It is situated in an unusual location next to the light console in the roof lining, so I am surprised I saw it. There may be a valid cause for its absence, however. I will verify the VIN to ensure it corresponds with the invoice. Nonetheless, I am still acclimating to everything; yet, the experience has been rather nice so far.

Uncertain about the specific specifications of my vehicle, I have started using VIN decoders. I had never used one before, but I experimented with a handful that either displayed nothing or were quite peculiar. The vendor said that there was a single Turbo, and I have no reason to question this; still, I would want to get further technical specifications. It does not seem very fast, but I have just had it for a few days.

i think is due to a cold start

Additional information is required. What is the age of the car? Which warning lights are illuminated? Are there any further symptoms present? Have you conducted any code scans?

Thank you for the proposal! I reinstalled the original board in the vehicle after replacing the batteries, anticipating that everything would function correctly; however, this was not the case. The rev counter remains inoperative, the brake light is constantly illuminated, and the service lights are blinking. I must remove the board once again to get assistance from someone to examine it. My intention in purchasing a new board was to get a quality option and rejuvenate the batteries. I desire to ascertain if the replacement board I acquired is intended for an E30, since it closely resembles the one now installed in my vehicle. One method to ascertain functionality is to put it in my vehicle and observe the behaviour of the gauges and service indicators. I do not anticipate causing any damage to the gauges, or at least I want to avoid it.

All pins seem to align properly, and it is the older model with longer batteries. Could my new board originate from a non-E30 model or a six-cylinder vehicle? I own the 1988 E30 318i once again.

Upon removing the old board, I neglected to get a full-length photograph, resulting in just a partial glimpse of the original board. Refer to the attachment. The acid corrosion has eroded the printed connectors on the circuit board. I lack a functional rev counter, the brake light is always illuminated, and the service lights are exhibiting erratic behaviour. Refer to the attached original board. The electrical components and layout are distinct when comparing the original and replacement boards. I lack expertise in electronics and find it challenging to comprehend onboard components, such as capacitors. The new board seems to be in decent condition; I can easily change the batteries. There are some green flecks on the printed connections, but I can clean them gently with a toothbrush and some electronic solvent. Thank you for your assistance.

Greetings everyone, I need assistance in determining the specific BMW model associated with a SI board I purchased second-hand. I own a 1988 E30 318i. A few weeks back, I removed the SI board and changed the leaking batteries while attempting to rectify issues with the rev counter and the service lights malfunctioning. My original SI board sustained significant damage from the acid leak, prompting me to purchase a secondhand replacement, anticipating it would be in superior shape. The board I discovered on eBay seems to be in excellent condition, however the batteries have seen little leakage, which I can replace with relative ease. My inquiry pertains to the fact that some electrical components on my new board seem marginally different to those on the board now installed in my vehicle. An E30 board, originating from Germany, was sold to me. I have attached the board I acquired; could anybody with expertise in BMW SI boards ascertain if it is an E30 board? Thank you!

Enquire if the sump was removed during the chain replacement and whether the oil pump pickup was inspected for debris.

I would not operate it with a low oil pressure problem. What tools are required? I believe a 16mm spanner is necessary to relieve tension, along with a 4 or 5mm drill bit to secure it in a de-tensioned state.

The idle level is low. I would want around 1.7 bar; since it is an N43, I would replace the oil control valve and reassess.

The bulb in the Daytime Running Light may be faulty. Some are not compatible with can-bus and will display an error.

Please inform us of your findings.

It seems to be the propeller centre bearing, which is an inexpensive component that can be easily replaced; however, the exhaust must be lowered, among other tasks.

Corrosion of the alloy on the top margins of the doors is prevalent.

Is it a favourable outcome or not? Appears exquisite. The hue complements the black wheels well. Are the overall operational expenses and upkeep comparable to those of the 530?
