liltwonn 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2009 I was wondering if it is easy to replace any of the cpu's if they are already programmed?? Ive takin to a "Certified" BMW repare enter and it seems like that they are only reseting the error codes, and my car will run fine for a cpl of months then the same problem occurs again!!

*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted July 13, 2009 Are you in Auckland ? If so I could check it for you. Cutting out and hesitating sounds like a AMF sensor to me if thats what the symptoms are. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted July 13, 2009 (edited) No im in Baltimore MD. So u dont think its the CPu? No I dont. It would help if you could tell me the actual fault code from the DME. It should come up with the fault on the scanner. If there is no fault code, you need to check live data and read the air mass Kg readings to see if they are in scale. Normally a faulty AMF will throw an Oxygen sensor fault (out of scale) AMF kg readings should be between 14-16 kg at idle and full load should give you a minimum of 500kg on a V8 Edited July 13, 2009 by *Glenn* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
