328i wont start - diag scan required without starting
Trigga replied to Trigga's topic in Maintenance
Replaced crank sensor with oem unit from eBay/Lithuania car runs great now, definitely helped changing the plugs and CCV too, much more responsive than before. SHITLOAD of white smoke on first start and when let off loud pedal on revs after first start, but now zero smoke after a couple of nice drives down mway etc The way it runs now reminds me of why I like the Beamer i6 so much haha. What else is ideal for replacement/cleaning at 200kms? Cooling system is getting overhaul in next month or two with metal tstat housing, new tstat and new coolant, probably upgrade expansion tank to alloy also -

Where from and what brand? I don’t feel like going in circles with afterwards sensors again - put in a non oem cam sensor which still gave fault, replaced with oem and fault gone. Got one you want to sell me to try? -

Cheers. Ive got lots of laptops from new to old. Otherwise I can run a VM where possible. Have you 'sucessfully' diagnosed and repaired issues with a specific program you can suggest? Many of the softwares read incorrect codes. Cam sensor was replaced a year ago, have pulled crank sensor today and all the wiring insulation is toast just like the cam sensor was (was throwing CEL). Going to replace that. -
Euro m52b28, been running strongly, slightly down on power under 3k but does boogie after that Had been having a slightly 'strange' fluctuating idle as of late every now and again - on startup upto 2k then back down to 700rpm, sometimes hunting for idle Hadnt driven her for a day or so because of lockdown Cranked her and she went to start but spluttered out Wouldnt start on a few short tries - just cranking not firing Got her running - rotary idle (lumpy af) and slight fog out the exhaust pipe Sounded like she had no oil - noisy from the motor side - definitely has oil Cut it off Try to start her again nothing - worried at this point about damaging by keeping running/trying to start Have removed and replaced CCV as was absolutely sludged - new one from pelican parts fitted tightly Removed and cleaned ICV - spins nicely and refitted tightly Doesnt seem to be any vacuum leaks that are visible to the eye - potential smoke test to follow About to replace plugs as when pulled they were thick BLACK on the ends and slightly burnt around the plug housing - no idea when last done (at least not for 30k kms) At this stage once the plugs are in looking to give her a crank and see if we can get some joy Wondering if worth a diagnostic scan to avoid fouling the plugs/ruling out other issues first Leads me to my question: - Which scanner can be used when car not started? Happy to buy one if but I'm wanting to avoid buying a cheap knock off scanner - options BavTech / BMW 1.4.0 - others? Awkward to get the car to an auto sparky 1: in lockdown 2: wont start so cant drive Any auto sparkys in Auckland want to do a lockdown scan jobbie?
