Originally I had an intermittent problem with this. But now the ABS, BRAKE, 4x4 LEDs seem to be on permanently and the speedometer in the dash is not moving at all. However when I hook up the OBD2 scanner it reads my speed just fine. Prior to the error lights being on all the time I used to be...

New guy here... I have a ton of experience with VW & Audi, just not BMW so much (love my German cars). I'm ripping apart a 00 323 that I'm turning into a death cart. Please don't bag on me, it had a lot of body damage and it didn't make financial sense to fix. It runs and drives good and was...

I've got a 2005 525i with the older 2.5L M54 engine. I've been having the P0011 or 28B6 error intermittently for the past couple of years. I have noticed that when the error is gone (service engine soon light is off on the gauge cluster) it typically comes back on startup when its a bit colder...

Hi, wonder if someone could help me. I’m not a car expert at all. I had an amber engine warning light for a little while on my 520d (F10) so rather than pay a garage for a diagnostic I bought an OBD2 reader. I got these 5 error codes: P00BC P00BD P22AE (twice) P0471 I thought it was the...

So my 2001 740iL acquired a cylinder 5 misfire and fuel cut off over night. When I ran the code scanner, one other code popped up. Not only was I getting the misfire code, I also got a “Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit High Bank 1 or Single Sensor” (Code P0343). I didn’t know if this code...

Hey everyone, So I keep getting a notice that my coolant level is low; however, my reservoir is maxed. I recently drained what I could and replaced the sensor in the bottom of the overflow tank and I am still getting the same notification. Engine isn't overheating otherwise and everything else...

So today, car threw codes - P0072 - Ambient Temp U0155 - Network P0674 - Powertrain After much googly searching, and this forum, I'm at a loss as to where to find the Ambient Temperature Sensor unit. I've seen many pics and videos of them exposed under the passenger side area, but our 2013...
