Issues with BMW that no Diagnostics Test Would Find Out<\/h3>\n

In short yes we do, but let me explain.\u00a0 There are\u00a0 3 perfect examples of modern BMW,\u00a0 Mercedes<\/strong>\u00a0 issues which no scanner<\/em> would ever find out, no matter where it was made or designed .<\/p>\n

Case number one is a well maintained BMW X3<\/strong><\/span> with\u00a0 random misfire, at idle only and only intermittently. At first we checked all the usual culprits like fuel and spark management. Just to be sure we checked again.\u00a0 We found everything in working order. The only thing left out is air management.<\/p>\n

N52 BMW engine is Operated by Valvetronic System<\/h3>\n

The air gets in when the valve opens. There has been no misfire at cold start only. But as the engine started to slow down after cold start, the misfire would return.<\/p>\n

This N52 BMW engine<\/strong> is operated by valvetronic system. It starts with a maximum lift of 8.5 mm of all the valves to aid in starting,\u00a0 then will reduce the valve lift to a single valve only to 0.3 mm .<\/p>\n

Knowing how the system works is job#1.\u00a0 After shutting down the engine it goes into maximum lift,\u00a0 therfore when we disconnected the hall sensor for the valvetronic, she reverts back to regular engine operation by using the throttle body.<\/p>\n

There was a smooth idle in that case which confirmed there is an air management issue at hand. Before going to check the eccentric shaft or rocker we removed the intake manifold to inspect the inlet port. Than we found a broken flap embedded in the intake port, blocking the air path into #6 cylinder hence the misfire issue at idle only.<\/p>\n

\u00a0A Seized Turbo Charger<\/h3>\n

The second case was a seized turbo charger pin to the wastegate where the owner got quoted 3 thousand to replace.\u00a0 It took a little effort and some time to unseize the pin.\u00a0 We lubed it, tested it. Passed the test and 3 thousand dollars is saved by checking the wastegate operation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Case #3; The Lamborghini\u00a0 Aventador<\/strong> at above, wouldn’t start.\u00a0 Started with a low voltage issue which prompted a battery replacement.\u00a0 After all it was caused by the hydraulic pump which issue is promptly fixed and car is back on the road.

This 3 examples I brought up, just to show you;\u00a0 We don’t charge for diagnostics<\/strong>, we charge for knowledge.<\/p>\n
