  1. Certainly, if a misfire occurs, the corresponding code would be recorded and then identified, similar to any other code, and shown during the faulty memory scan. I have never encountered a particular misfire function.
  2. The low-pressure pump is an electronic device located in the tank, responsible for transferring fuel to the mechanical high-pressure pump affixed to the engine. It appears they are awaiting circuit diagrams. I lack confidence in a Ford dealer's ability to accurately diagnose the issue, as I question their possession of diagnostic equipment sufficient for a comprehensive analysis of a BMW.
  3. Which type of gasoline pump is required, low pressure or high pressure? I would be apprehensive if the pressure is elevated, as it might introduce metal particles into the fuel system, necessitating extensive repairs to replace the entire fuel system, since garages typically prefer not to clean pipes and tanks. Injectors would be ineffective. If the low-pressure pump is not functioning, it is not a significant problem to procure and replace the karts.
  4. That option is unavailable. Adhere to the dipstick, as Johnny asserts; it will not deceive. I fail to get the rationale of eliminating the dipstick, considering its expense.
  5. Wind with a significant capital W.
  6. It can be programmed to do that if folding mirrors are available.
  7. If the program can be overwritten, it could be worth requesting a re-mapper. It doesn't cost anything to ask.
  8. The gearbox ECU will enter limp mode as soon as it detects speed data from the rear ABS sensor, so I don't see this working. The software systems are ten years distant, so I wouldn't be convinced it would work even if your E30 met ABS specs.
  9. If the gearbox is an Aisin, it is known for its poor performance, often exhibiting additional symptoms beyond drivetrain alerts, such as hard shifting and rev hunting. It is advisable to get a specialist's opinion, as previously mentioned. Conduct a search for "Aisin" here to find discussions related to that gearbox.
  10. N57 still operational; I completed a task last week.
  11. Upon purchasing my M340i a year before, I entered the dealership equipped with a quotation from a broker. I ultimately received a discount of £7,000. The prolonged delivery time and subsequent increase in list price resulted in a savings of over £10,000. That was clearly about a new vehicle; I believe there is less flexibility for negotiation on a pre-owned one.
  12. Fully extend the object and press and hold the button for a duration of 15 seconds. Then, fully retract the object and press and hold the button for another 15 seconds.
  13. You will not lose any settings. You only need to change the date and time, and maybe reset the Windows operating system.
  14. If the maintenance were conducted in accordance with BMW's recommended service intervals, it is probable that only every other service would need an oil change. The minor service just involves the replacement of brake fluid. You can determine by accessing each individual service. If the vehicle has only accumulated 11,000 km in the last four years and has had regular maintenance, then it should be in satisfactory condition. The first four are the problem.
  15. Uncommonly, my vehicle has accumulated 130,000 miles and still it maintains a pristine appearance.
  16. I am uncertain about the accuracy of the information, but personally, I would get a litre of DTF from a BMW dealer to ensure with absolute certainty that the proper substance is being used.
  17. The website the-dpf-doctor.com offers a wide range of agents that are skilled in the professional cleaning of the diesel particulate filter (DPF). These agents use a direct injection method to clean the DPF, without adding any substances to the fuel, oil, or intake system. In addition, they conduct a comprehensive diagnostic assessment to identify any potential factors contributing to the accumulation. If I were to purchase another diesel vehicle, I would willingly spend £100 to ensure that the diesel particulate filter (DPF) is thoroughly cleaned. In addition, they will have the capability to suggest a gasoline additive, if one is available. Another concern during short excursions is the potential for oil pollution resulting from inadequate regenerations.

  19. In order to maintain a battery's optimal condition while the automobile is not in use, it is necessary to connect it to a trickle charger. When observing a tour of Youtubers' automobile collections, you will see that a Ctek charger is connected to each vehicle.
  20. Consider the standard options: sell the automobile and get a vehicle with a larger engine, or alternatively, install a turbocharger on the existing car.
  21. There is no need for you to depart from our company. Although you may not own the automobile, you still possess the information to impart.
  22. Reestablish the connection of the diagnostic system and examine the recorded error codes. Additionally, monitor the current operating temperature.
