VWDaveBMW Posted December 2, 2024 Share Posted December 2, 2024 Hi, I am experiencing a rather unusual problem with my engine. In lower gears and at low RPMs, the vehicle accelerates moderately; but, when I apply full throttle, the engine exhibits a sluggish response and a significant deficiency in power. Getting up any type of an incline is difficult. I own an Obdeleven code reader, however it is not displaying any information. I have detached the air intake, and the turbo rotates freely when I apply finger pressure. A little amount of oil, but not excessive. No visible fractures in the charging hose. Starting to run out of ideas. Assistance with defect identification would be much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screwdriver_1 Posted December 2, 2024 Share Posted December 2, 2024 Initially, specific engine data will be beneficial. A comprehensive scan with BMW-specific equipment may uncover issues that generic scanners cannot detect. Also live data check may uncover possible difficulties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VWDaveBMW Posted December 2, 2024 Author Share Posted December 2, 2024 Hello, it is the N47 engine with a power output of 130 kW/177 hp, and it has 126,000 kilometres recorded. A friend has a competent professional-grade reader that I intend to borrow. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevorseaf Posted December 2, 2024 Share Posted December 2, 2024 Inspect all hoover hoses as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VWDaveBMW Posted December 2, 2024 Author Share Posted December 2, 2024 This may seem like a trivial inquiry, but could you clarify which pipes are the vacuum pipes? Are they the ones associated with the EGR system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screwdriver_1 Posted December 2, 2024 Share Posted December 2, 2024 The sole vacuum pipe on the 2011 model is designated for the EGR bypass; both the turbo and EGR valve are electronically controlled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
