  1. Thank you, I agree it is a commendable suggestion. I intend to either follow your suggestion or see an injector professional to examine my injectors and fuel system in order to exclude them as potential causes. When removing injectors, as you have indicated, to inspect for leakage or spray pattern, is there any component that needs replacement before reinstalling them, such as the coupling? If the issue is connected to the injector, I hope to obtain reasonably inexpensive ones and programme them independently.
  2. Indeed, it is an excellent suggestion. I will do this task as I want to replace the spark plugs in the near future. I installed a robust automotive low-pass fuel system. Although not optimal, my auto start stop feature has resumed functioning following installation. The long-term fuel trim for bank 1 was measured at 10.90% during an idle scan. Does this reading suggest any specific information?
  3. Expressing gratitude. Indeed, the installation of a new thermostat is necessary. The misfire is intermittent and specifically affects cylinders 3 and 4, making it difficult to identify the cause. I have already replaced the low fuel pressure sensor as well as the low pressure fuel pump and filter. The code is still present! What is the most effective way to check whether a sensor is functioning correctly? When examining fuel pressure, it seems that the low-pressure fuel pump (LPFP) is unable to sustain and retain the necessary pressure, while the fuel pump is using a significant amount of electrical power, indicating that it is likely operating over its normal capacity. Do you believe that this issue may be attributed to a vacuum leak, a leak or obstruction in the fuel system, or defective wiring? Could it be injectors?
  4. Greetings, I am a newcomer to this community and I own a BMW 116i 2008 equipped with an N43 engine. My automobile has been reliable for the previous 3 years, but it has suddenly encountered issues that are difficult for me to identify. I would really value any counsel since this matter has been causing me significant distress for a considerable period of time. Issues: Encountering subpar performance when driving at high speeds on the motorway (vehicle lacks power). I encounter both hesitation and jerkiness while initiating acceleration from a stationary position, as well as sometimes when driving uphill. Upon experiencing this, the EML light on the dashboard illuminates intermittently, and thereafter, the automobile often exhibits misfires accompanied by an abrupt decline in power. Upon rebooting the vehicle, it resumes seamless operation. The car's engine only sometimes revs while it is not moving. (I have come across information suggesting that this issue might be caused by a malfunctioning NOX sensor). Codes that have been saved or recorded: The scan of my automobile has produced the following freeze frame data: Please note that the only code that is presently active is 2AAF. (I believe that the occurrence of misfire codes and map thermostat activation codes is solely attributable to the aforementioned issue) 2AAF: DME: current fuel pump plausibility The frequency is 40. The distance covered by the logistics counter is 40 km. Distance travelled: 217,384 kilometers Fuel consumption rate: 2.00 litres per hour Fuel pressure prior to fuel supply control valve: 3,523.66 millibars Engine RPM: 1,024.0 Voltage at terminal 87: 14.32 volts Diagnostic Trouble Code 29CF indicates a combustion misfire in cylinder 3 of the Direct Injection Engine (DME). The frequency is 2. The logistics counter is 40. The load value misfire detection is 11.72%. The engine is running at a speed of 2656 revolutions per minute. The temperature of the engine is 82.50 degrees. The presence of oxygen is detected. The sensor integrator group 2 has seen a decrease of 7.03%. The kilometre reading is 217,616 km. 2EF7: DME: Activation of map thermostat The frequency is 31 and the logistics counter is 40. The current state of the engine is PL. The engine is running at a speed of 1024 revolutions per minute (1/min). The temperature of the engine is 31.50 degrees. The voltage at terminal 87 is 14.32 volts. The distance travelled is measured in kilometres (KM). Distance travelled: 217,384 km A6CF: Requesting immediate repair for the JBE AUC sensor. The truck is travelling at a speed of 65.40 kilometres per hour. The frequency of the vehicle's movement is 2. The logistics counter is now at 28 km. The reading is 217,768. The 2AF6 code refers to a Lambda binary issue with the DME nitrogen oxide sensor, which may be producing problems. The frequency is 48 and the logistics counter is 36 kilometres. Distance travelled: 217,472 km The engine status is now PL. Engine speed: 2144 revolutions per minute (rpm). Engine temperature: 84.00 degrees Celsius. Voltage at terminal 87: 14.42 volts. The 2AF4 is an electronic nitrogen oxide sensor for DME, which may be producing problems. Frequency: 255 Logistics Counter: 40 Kilometer Reading: 217384 The engine status is now PL. Engine speed: 1536 revolutions per minute (rpm). Engine temperature: 92.25 degrees Celsius. Voltage at terminal 87: 14.42 volts. Completed tasks: I have just changed the Low-Pressure Fuel Pump (LPFP) and filter, resulting in a modest improvement in the vehicle's performance. I refrained from deleting any scripts or making any adjustments to the set. Substituted the low-pressure fuel sensor subsequent to the activation of the low-pressure sensor code. After experiencing troubles with the ABS wheel speed sensors, I cleaned them, which resolved the particular problems. Upon bringing my vehicle to a shop, they have recommended replacing the spark plugs, injectors, coil packs, and thermostat. Additionally, they have suggested changing the reluctor rings, however I have temporarily resolved the problem myself. I am unable to financially support or undertake this approach. I have purchased the Foxwell nt-510 Elite and I would like to provide you with some data in the hopes that you can identify any issues: Data collected during a fault: The gasoline low pressure value is between 3302 and 3646 hPa. The fuel high pressure value is within the range of 139136 to 150982 hPa. Real-time data without any errors detected when the system is in a state of rest. Please take notice that the data provided was collected in homogeneous mode conditions, as indicated by the programme. It seems that my vehicle only operates in this mode, as the coolant temperature remains between 80 and 90 degrees when driving. Data about the low-pressure fuel pump: The pressure of the lpfp (low-pressure fuel pump) fluctuates between 3414hPa and 3548hPa at idle, with a variation of 134hPa. This indicates that the lpfp is not maintaining a consistent pressure of 5000hPa. After the engine has been turned off for 15 seconds, the pressure reading drops to 2987hPa, which is below the minimum value of 4500hPa. This indicates that the low-pressure fuel pump (lpfp) is unable to maintain the required pressure. Data about the high pressure gasoline pump: The pressure is now 149728-150182hPa, which should be maintained at 150-200.00hPa in normal mode. After a duration of 4 seconds with the engine turned off, the atmospheric pressure recorded was 149400.14hPa. (The engine must be turned off for at least 3/4 seconds, with the pressure not dropping below 500hPa) Real-time EKPS values Control parameters: The designated velocity of the Low Pressure Fuel Pump (LPFP) is between 9146 and 9218 units. One per minute The stated supply rate is between 238 and 244 litres per hour. The actual speed is between 8570 and 8692 revolutions per minute. Voltage and currents: The value at terminal 30 is 14.10-14.20 V, which is the power supply voltage. The voltage of the fuel pump is 14.00 V, with an optimum value of 7 V at idle. This voltage is the output voltage of the fuel pump. The voltage of phase B is 0V. Phase C voltage: 0 volts. Current at the power factor: 9.00-9.10 amperes. FP phase B+C: 0 amperes Based on this observation, it is evident that the low-pressure fuel pump is receiving an excessively high voltage, indicating that it is operating at a heightened level to sustain the required pressure. This is also apparent in the fluctuation of low pressure measurements. What are the potential issues? Are there any problems with the low-pressure sensor, such as a defective replacement or wiring issues? Are there any issues with the LPFP (Low-Pressure Fuel Pump), such as wiring difficulties or defective replacements? Are there any leakages or obstructions in the low-pressure fuel system? Is there a check valve in the fuel pump? I would really appreciate any suggestions on my future course of action. The Garage intends to attempt various repairs by replacing components, while my web research has just served to further confuse me and diminish my optimism of being able to solve this issue on my own! I own a multimeter and can assess the condition of the components in the fuel system, provided I do further investigation. Additionally, my scan tool should be capable of obtaining satisfactory real-time data from the vehicle. However, I am uncertain about the specific regions that need examination.
  5. I want to do so, but, the vibrant shade of red that I possess attracts attention in my current location. Driving a Lamborghini would make me vulnerable to being abducted without detection.
  6. That is the reason I suggested that you should get one.
  7. I did not want to do a full service, but rather to only inspect the oil level. To do so, you will need to purchase a dipstick and a new red cap.
  8. I would check the amount of oil in the gearbox.
  9. That accurately describes me. While in the automobile dealership, we were on the verge of placing an order for a new vehicle. The salesperson inquired about our colour preference, to which I said, "Any colour other than white." I desired a blue automobile, and my significant other agreed to it, under the condition that we were purchasing a new vehicle. I inquired about his preference, since I was indifferent towards the hue, and he reiterated his choice of black. The XCeed is now available in the basic shade of red at no additional cost.
  10. There is nothing inherently problematic with owning a black automobile. Personally, I have had three black cars in the past and just sold my black Ford Focus eight weeks ago. I had initially planned to get a black XCeed GT-Line S, but then I came across a Lunar Grey one that was already available, had been used for 5 weeks, and had 600 miles on it. The best part was that it was £5500 less than the brand new one I was considering.
  11. Congratulations for demonstrating perseverance! 👍
  12. My previous F32 only used one side, thus it is possible that it is functioning as intended. As previously said, Bimmercode has the potential to enable the functionality on the other side.
  13. Has anybody used their services or any of the other e-commerce companies?
  14. That is not unexpected, to be honest. Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras have the capability to capture a significant amount of information. However, the presence of displayed discs provided many opportunities for traffic wardens to issue fines or citations. However, the loss of income is compensated by the significant disadvantage of being unable to transfer the road tax to a new owner when selling your automobile. Alternatively, purchasing a product at the end of the month and being liable to pay taxes on it starting from the first day of that same month.
  15. "Out of Order" refers to the first word in my post. Indeed, it is possible to manually reset any of these three displays if desired. For the final three autos, numbered 22, 23, and 24, the information is the same as what I posted.
  16. It is worth mentioning that if you are interested in discovering picturesque routes, Michelin maps are unrivalled in that particular domain. Any road that is shown with a green border is categorised as "picturesque". An online version of the same cartography may also be obtained via ViaMichelin.
  17. The area east of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port has several breathtaking routes to drive on, one of which being the lesser-known Col du Tourmalet 😉 While travelling east through the Hautes-Pyrénées, you will encounter breathtaking landscape. If you have enough time, this region offers the opportunity to spend an entire day driving a mere 150 miles due to the slow and winding nature of some of the roads. During the summer, several ski resorts provide affordable and well-appointed accommodations, making it easy to locate a pleasant place to stay overnight. If you are interested in spending time in a city, Toulouse is worth considering.
  18. He was a homicidal spouse abuser, good riddance. In 1997, he was deemed 'liable' for the deaths of the individuals and was instructed to pay a sum of $33 million. However, he promptly filed for bankruptcy. The Goldman family is still owed $114 million by his estate. I anticipate their comprehension.
  19. If the battery in question is the original one, then it is advisable to replace it with a new one. There is a possibility that I have an internal defect that causes electrical connection, but when subjected to a load, the connection is disrupted. If the appearance of the item is identical to the one I own, it is worth noting that my item has been non-functional for some years. To the best of my knowledge, its only purpose is to enable stop/start functionality, with no impact on any other functions.
  20. If this vehicle is equipped with two turbochargers, it will have a wastegate. Indeed, the phenomenon of runaway in an engine may be likened to the situation where the engine continues to consume and burn oil even after it has been shut off.
  21. Afterward, prepare to use T Cut and polish the whole region in order to restore it to a condition that is almost identical to its original state. (Otherwise, the region with the emblem would seem more luminous compared to the surrounding area.)
  22. Inadequate batteries might result in various electrical malfunctions in these vehicles. It is advisable to get it examined. Dehumidifiers are often used to remove moisture from damp rooms. Another option, which I have used before, is a fan heater. However, exercise caution when determining its placement to prevent overheating of nearby objects.
  23. Any reputable automotive glass provider should have the capability to get it (original equipment manufacturer or its equivalent), but it will not be cheap; anticipate a bill that is many times the price of a high-quality tinting service.
