Hi there I am a new member and hoping for some advice regarding my 3 series 320i. It's a 57 reg with 38,000 miles, and the other day it suffered a massive loss of power and the yellow engine block light came on. I couldn't get the car over 10moh and it coughed and spluttered like mad. Limped it to the garage who said it showed a fault in no.1 injector which they then cleared and then a fault in no.4 injector which they also cleared but then a fault code appeared relating to the ECU! Am heartbroken at my beloved car being in such a state and am at a loss as how to proceed.

Any advice would be gratefully received.

I managed to get it checked out and apparantly it was the injectors that were affecting the DME, got the injectors replaced and had the DME re-programmed with up to date software so should be picking my lovely car tomorrow - yay!!! Can't wait!!!

      Hi. Do you have a light on the dash? It could be that someone fitted an emulator ?

      Z3 airbag wiring,

      I'm am sorry if I am doing this incorrectly but I have searched and not found anything related to this but I am still learning all of this. Does anyone know about the yellow airbag/ seat belt connector under the driver’s seat? I am sure the previous owner has changed this but I am wondering if anyone has seen this before? If so, should I remove the butt connectors and solder the wires? Should the wires be twisted all the way to the yellow connector? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, JayMe

      Connectors in the boot next to the battery

      Hi - I have a 2007 1.6L Petrol 1 series and it has wire connectors in the boot near the battery but I don't know what they are meant to connect to. Are they just spare or is there a part missing? The car currently not starting but we think it is a BCM fault but just wanted to know what the cables in the boot are meant for. Any help would be greatly appreciated be gratefully appreciated as we can't read the fault codes as we think the BCM is faulty and the car won't idle properly but there might be some other issue. Regards Andrew

      Bmw x1 2012 won't start

      Morning Marvin You need a Diagnostic Scan with a BMW capable system , I assume that when the Footwell control module and and Battery were replaced they were correctly registered to your chassis ? Has your Mechanic checked the starter solenoid ? much cheaper than a starter Hope this helps Dave
