  1. Total Transmission oil is good too. I ask a mechanic to change my trans oil.. And after, transmissions shifting is so ugly and stuff. I thought mechanic broke my transmission. However, When I tried to do a Reset and Relearn from the obd software. And do a calibration where you drive your car (not even doing the relearn on the high speed.) Transmission run so smooth after 2 months. I was wondering, using a lifeguard zf is just a Hype? You can absolutely use other oil brands as long as it says it fits your car? I think the computer will adjust when you click the Relearn in the scanner and not just the reset adaptations?

    Quick Questions

    Ok i want to change my front shocks to the msport shocks. Can I just change the shocks per se? Nothing else It is compatible? E90 normal shocks to msport. Thanks!
  3. I had fixed this. You need to 1. Reset Adaptation. 2. Teach In components. 3. Do the calibration the ones that you drive your car with the steps given from ZF.
  4. My n46 e90 car: When I change my ignition coil, I noticed that there is oil on the 4th cylinder. What is probably the main cause of it? Is it just replace the sparkplug pipe? or Should I replace the valve cover gasket? Before that I replaced my VVT motor. Thanks.
  5. @Jacko I have the bmw software scanner Ista and c310 scanner. Only egs 2dca(No signal detected). @nath - oh crank sensor also do that?! Mine as stated, my delphi ignition coil failed after a year and a half just driving from home to office like 5km away.
  6. Since last year , I have this experience that when I pressed my brake hard on the while waiting for the traffic light to turn green, randomly I get this shake like somebody hit you at the back. And when I accelerate, I will experience this thud and you feel like you hit something and the rpm goes very high then it will catch up after the slip. Then this month, it became occasionally and no longer intermitent. When you hold and press the brake and your Transmission is in D or DS, The car shake many times and I noticed the D or DS will blink. I tried to to do the manual steptronic. So it will go to 5th to 6th gear then suddenly it will go to DS and slip. And you are in brake in the traffic light and when you accelerate , thud and No power at all like a neutral. I was thingking the torque converter is damage. But there is no CEL. Then I checked you tube and maybe it is the IGNITION COIL has lots of signal interference that it will affect the Transmission Module to lost connection. But I bought a new set delphi 2 years ago so it must still be good so I suspect that the Neutral Idle Control is not working properly. Last nice I decided to remove the ignition coil, clean the harness, spray it with an electric cleaner and randomly place back all the ignition coil. Tested it and after 5 minutes of driving, the symptoms reoccure and got worst. So I decided why not put all my original Ignition coil back to my car. I did that and test and BOOM everything works perfectly now. (FIXED) I thought DELPHI coils are good? damage less than years? Weird. Oh, it has a 2DCA Egs no connection thingy error but it will not cause the engine light to switch on.
  7. Hello guys, Anyone of you here in Manukau knows how to disable the NIC (Neutral Idle Control) in the transmission? Thanks.
  8. So, my car has a jolt and hard shift after changing transmission oil. After a year, I check the net and youtube, they fix it when resseting the adaptation. I tried to reset the adaptation and car went smooth acceleration is ok and stuff. But after a month, car will jolt as if somebody bump to you at the back. Sometimes, when during traffic stop (Traffic light is red), it jolt like somebody bump you. If you do nothing, it gets very worst. From just during hard brake, it will not jolt from acceleration from 2nd to 3rd gear and from 3rd to 2nd gear. If you reset it again, It will come back to smooth again. Then after a month or more it will go back to it. It will happen fast if you are driving the car like 30 minutes or more. I was thinking disabling the NIC (Neutral Idle Control)? Or need to check my fluid level? I remember when changing my radiator, the mechanic also remove the small radiator which is connected to the radiator. Maybe it is no longer optimum? Thanks.
  9. Go ista or inpa. Blaming myself for not using it sooner.
  10. Topaz/bapmic bought from OZ. My AC blower is topaz already 5 years old and counting. Maybe i am just lucky with the vvt motor or vice versa. Any way to check the VVT motor before opening my car again? Can I use my car with VVT malfunction? My old VVT motor has 2a67 Valvetronic , internal fault and 2a6b valvetronic,powerlimitation,servomotor.
  11. Just an update on this. Try to relearn vvt motor end stops. VVT motor wont do it. So I open the car engine again. And behold, the worm gear is in the Maximum to the counter clockwise direction. Put back my original VVT motor and do the relearn and relearn successful. Put the new VVT motor again and try to do a relearn and failed. So I put back my old VVT , relearn stops and Car starts and run now. When the worm gear is on maximum on the counter clockwise? What angle is that? Car wont really start with that position. When doing a relearn, the worm gear in relation to the worm shaft,there is like 5 teeth of the gear on the right side. (That position will start the engine). Observation. When you pressed start the engine without pressing brakes, the VVT motor will really moved. It seems like the NEW VVT motor could not moved correctly to the point where the computer wants it so does the error.
  12. What position is the shaft, where it is fully open so that it can start again?
  13. I just switch ignition 2 and wait for 10 minutrs. Would that calibrate the end stops?
  14. My E90 n46 won't start 2 days after I changed the VVT motor. I tried to start the engine for a long time and suddenly engine lights comes on, 2a67 Valvetronic , internal fault and 2a6b valvetronic,powerlimitation,servomotor. Car cranks good and just that. Did starting my engine long destroyed my new vvt motor? My vvt motor destroyed my engine as well? Tried to remove the Eccentric shaft sensor plug. Then start the engine it only shows error 2a59 2a55 -- eccentric shaft sensor. Put the plug back again and error is gone. Still wont start. Remove and reinsert the VVT motor's electric plug. Engine won't start. When inserted the new VVT motor, I press the start button to ignition 2 (Engine not idling) and wait for a long time and hear lots of sounds from the engine. Then started the engine idled for 15 minutes. Test run the car running it in the Motor way for more an hour and everything wents smooth and ok. No vibration in idling, rpm no longer going up and down etc. Then after 2 days, wify called , car just cranks and wont start. When I start the engine (crank long), I can smell gasoline fume. RPM goes up. Now i don't know what to do. Can ultra grey silicon damage your engine when some of it go to the engine? Any help would be appreciated ty.
