What scanner are you using?

I don't recognize that format at all.

Is the car in limp mode?

Have you check the harness going to the MAP sensor?

Resurrecting this 2 yr old thread... so my wife's 2012 528i is having this same exact error code. I searched on google and this thread came up on top.

I'm using this Foxwell code reader I got from Amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019QCG5RE

I don't drive the car regularly and my wife originally said that she felt there's something different about the car. I test drove it the other day and here's the symptom that I noticed: when the engine temp has gone over the quarter mark, the radiator fan would kick in at what seemed like max rpm. From inside the car I could feel vibration on the steering wheel when the fan kicked in.

I plugged in the code reader and this is what I got (see photos). I reset the CEL but it came back the next day.

Car is 100% stock. Car is driveable and not in limp mode.

Dealer asked $250 just to diagnose the problem. Going to look for indy, but wondering if anybody here can help?

I did the same - Googled the code and landed here.

I too am experiencing shaking at idle soon after starting, it calms down after a few minutes once engine warms up. Started doing this about 2 weeks ago and the day after I took the car in for its 90K service/checkup.... I wonder if they unplugged it and forgot to put back.

I have the Carly app/diagnostic tool and every time I start up the vehicle CEL comes back on. Been doing a reset daily - hate to see that bring yellow CEL. First time I've had it come on so it irritates me LOL!

It's 20 degrees here now... so not interested in getting under the car to look for it :thumbdwn: guess I'll take it back so they can figure it out.
