badgx Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Greetings, I have replaced the turbocharger on my 2005 BMW 320d. Initially, the device was functioning well for around one minute. However, as I increased the speed, it became stuck for a duration of 5-10 seconds before stopping on its own. Currently, I am unable to initiate even the simplest tasks for a duration of 1 second. Could you please provide any recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave783 Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Perform a fault code scan as the first step. It seems that there may be a lack of gasoline, however examining the diagnostic codes should provide further information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgx Posted September 3 Author Share Posted September 3 Everything is functioning properly without any error codes, yet the vehicle is not starting. It is likely that the immobiliser system has malfunctioned. I came upon a source that said someone who had a similar problem to mine.

IrvesBMW Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 It is necessary to connect the vehicle to a diagnostics computer such as INPA or ISTA in order to check for any error codes. Have you replaced the gasoline filter? It may be beneficial to do so nonetheless. I successfully performed the turbo replacement on my 2004 e46 320TD small, albeit it was a challenging task. Regarding the turbo replacement, what was the reason for the change? Has the most recent turbo had a failure? Could metal debris have detached from the impeller blades and entered the engine? Have you performed the necessary tasks of replacing the oil and filter, as well as inspecting the previously used oil filter to ensure the absence of any metallic particles inside it? Have you thoroughly cleaned the oil feed and outlet pipes connected to the turbocharger? Did you lubricate the new turbo with oil before to its installation? Providing comprehensive information on the car's specifications, service records, mileage, and maintenance history greatly aids in comprehending the issue at hand and facilitating effective problem-solving.

dave783 Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 As already said. If you suspect that the immobiliser is the source of the issue, doing a code scan using a BMW kit will reveal it as a fault code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave783 Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 If the engine is cranking but failing to start, it is quite likely that one or more fault codes have been generated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
