BMW Vapour Canister Part numbers - 16137162350 7162350

[@noonelikeme81]

Is this for older BMW's? At what mileage should this be replaced?

[@GrandSavrify]

@bmwdoctor thanks for the great info! Do you know where is the charcoal canister location for X6M E71? Thanks!

[@livinritzy]

Once my tank fills up halfway, it starts kicking back the pump, could this be the issue??

[@stevendiliberto128]

This video was timely. Every time I fill up my 545i with gas, it cranks over but will not start until you crank it about 10 seconds. I replaced this charcoal filter, along with the pump attached to it, and the purge solenoid in the front of the engine. Things are working great now.

[@jondolan8551]

like i always say you are the only one that checks the things they teach in schools. things are more complicated than backyard mechanics think they are. if ya have the basics and apply them properly people will find the problem instead of jumping from part to part

[@BMWDoctor]

That’s correct my friend many many on here are NOT clued up on these cars and most are just PARTS FITTERS AND DIYERS that’s it now you will see many many videos about this part and people jus trying to find a video to make and make out they found the problem with there cars when in reality they had to wait for someone like me on KZbin to even show them about this part. There is only me and one other guy on here that does stuff properly and I can say his channel ends in DIY

[@jondolan8551]

@@BMWDoctor it's not only BM that has a carbon canister that is holding them back. They are only good until the pollution system is not under warranty. And ya dont wanna get caught unplugging it inthe u.s.

[@BMWDoctor]

Correct indeed I know you will get fined big time over there for that and I wouldn't of had it unplugged either it was the idiot who owned the car before me that did that ! causing all my errors and rough running issues. Just shows people try and be cheap and disconnect things instead of spending money and its people like that that shouldn't be allowed near these cars and should be banned

[@Anirossa]

Very scary, glad someone tells others about it

[@zaharianicolae9828]

SUBSCRIBED! Omg.. THANK YOU! Never knew what the heck that was! My BMW E30 coupe, 1985, has (had) a vapour canister too. I didn't knew exactly what it did tbh. I found it by mistake, while i was driving, that it was rubbing/bouncing on the tire, since the clips holding it broke off. It wore down so badly, that it made a really big hole in it. I didn't find ANYTHING about it anywhere, cuz i didn't knew what to look for either. It didn't smell like gasoline or anything (the lines to it were probably already clogged up long before i found it broken, cuz of its age). But now, i finally know the reason it was there, since i always had problems with fuel pressure dropping too low.

[@kamata93]

For 180 pounds, im not even going to blink twice. I will just replace it. Some people dont deserve even owning a car...

[@deadprivacy]

andyou sir, thoroughly deserve you badly designed overpriced nightmare inducing BMW, there is none more deserving.

[@Emanual0607]

Thank you so much Mr. BMW Doctor!!!

[@BMWDoctor]

Your welcome my friend

[@pnwmadbullies]

I just remove my canister and it looks pretty clean, should I replace it any way? Or is there a way to test it?

[@jonathangruiz127]

Hi Dean I’m having code 2779 dmtl leakage detection on my e60 M5. It is also asking me to check gas cap although the gas cap looks fine

[@nihonkokusai]

Does this part exist on the diesel models?

[@jurgen3424]

Do you know if BMW are still recalling high-pressure fuel pumps and injectors for cars with the N53 engine? Thanks!

[@isitgoodtodo2834]

just go to the dealer lol and ask

[@zeferbreaksmc4422]

Very good video could you make a video on replacing the purge solenoid I had a similar problem with the long crank but it wasn’t the charcoal housing, I was also getting o2 sensor codes when it wasn’t them, once the purge solenoid was replaced the crank fixed and the o2 sensor codes went away, I don’t know if it’s a common problem or not but I figured it might make for a good video

[@aidenp5768]

Is this a problem you would see on M54B30? Like on an X5?

[@Doovde69]

Take it this only applies to petrol cars and not diesels?

[@dane1312.]

Yes

[@panteleypanteleev6356]

Helpful as always! Is it possible, smell of gasoline in the car, caused by that part? The smell is there, as the car is at high load or climbing a hill? Would like to hear you opinion on that!

[@tupapi2979]

Did you figure it out? Mine is doing the same shit.

[@sarimjadoon3641]

Love the clean shave

[@thescottishz6060]

I have a f10 could this be this be the reason I can’t put fuel in it at the station? Pump clicks off instantly takes 20 mins to fill up

[@WilliamMayCentury21]

I'm a BMW newbie just got my BMW a few months ago less than 50,000 miles runs great but would this be a problem for the 2016 BMW 428i Gran Coupe?

[@tomtat38]

Excellent report good knowledgeable with your finger on the pulse. Top man

[@acem5uk]

Hi Dean, have you opened a garage now?? We were speaking last year.

[@whizzthekidd9519]

Glad you found you man i just got a e60 550i it was a 2 owner but neglected cause most people don't like messing with BMW'S here cause they believe they are too complicated I've had it almost 2 weeks now i did the plugs and oil this past weekend and changed the cabin filters and stuff but I've tried to reset the service codes for the oil and filters but she won't allow me to do so and she seems to have a cold start issue but only sometimes and misfire she also has slow coolant leak i haven't found it yet, but i was thinking i may need to change the ignition coils to but after watching this video I'm thinking that this could also be contributing to that as well this is the first time I've really messed around with the N side of BMW aside from an e90 i had back when i was a younger I'm more familiar with the M side ive had a few E36s i have one now she needs a transmission now but anyway if you could maybe lend an ear on what you think i could do and where i should start I'd appreciate it man

[@sarimjadoon3641]

What is your intro music called

[@ottovonwallace830]

Would it be on old cars like the E46?

[@ottovonwallace830]

Just asking for a friend

[@joebartley2302]

Is it the same on the E39 3.5l?

[@JohnnyPottsIII]

Just had mine replaced on my E60 M5. Was causing my gas pump to click off when filling and made filling the tank super slow.

[@parnellsc]

Same... 🙃

[@Wergrun]

Did this matter in the E90 series as well?

[@shambv9234]

Is this something to look at changing on the m57 engine? 211 bhp

[@martinmaxwell2004]

Dean, took your advise and had the battery cable connection recall done. Had starting problems with voltage drop afterwards as it would start with a jump pack np. THEN, 4 weeks later, it went on fire , AFTER BMW recall. They recovered it, I have a courtesy car, I luckily caught it quickly, as the boot mat, foam floor lining, and through floor connection burned . Warn everyone, recalled cars can STILL self ignite, PLEASE TELL EVERYONE AS THIS CAN STILL HAPPEN.

[@BMWDoctor]

No way mate I will make this video ASAP and get this out no problem my friend and thanks for warning me of this and making me aware what are BMW saying and are they taking blame for this ?

[@martinmaxwell2004]

@@BMWDoctor Hi Dean, yeah it happened on the 11 th. They have had the car since then, 525d lci 07. Bmw want more info from the dealer, so they now , I assume are looking underside photos to assess the damage to panels/ underseal and the condition of the underfloor battery cable. So far they havnt said what their intentions are,-- yet.

[@BMWDoctor]

Ok mate can you do me a favour do you have any photos or paperwork for this from BMW you can email me and send to my instagram please so i can make the video my instagram can be found in my description and my about section and my email address also mate

[@martinmaxwell2004]

No paperwork as it was a recall . They did the rear light bulb boards as well. I have a few pics ill try to get to you tomorrow. Cheers Dean, just wondering where I stand legally now. Thanks for the speedy reply Dean, any thoughts would be appreciated. I think they should replace the underfloor cable as part of this recall. Mine didn't.

[@BMWDoctor]

Legally they owe you a new car BUT the burden of proof lays on you to PROVE it was BMW that caused this fire and NOT something else on the car that was due to neglect that is the issue now that you have to solely prove that you wasn't in the wrong and that the car had NO DEFECTS until they touched the car. Legally if you can prove that then BMW will owe you compensation and even a new car they will investigate it properly I should hope and let you know if a fire was caused by that or petrol fumes causing the fire or rain water

[@clivechalres4183]

Petrol only or diesel to ?

[@petrovkristian1047]

Yo Big Dawg what’s going on man !! Just changed this in my E60 Damnnnnn this s**t expensive over here ya”ll and then here’s the Doc posting this video today about this. man never thought the doctor would know about this problem too. You got the E60 murdered and hammered In the scene right yet again Dawg. Look after yourself and your family bro Nuff love from Cali ✊🏾 💯

[@liamsmith7398]

Hey man, would you please give me some help with something on my e90 key fob? It starts the car fine when inserted, the key blade is defo for that car as it turns and opens up the boot manually. HOWEVER . It doesnt seem to be charging as it wont do anything with the buttons and locking or unlocking. I got into the fob itself and the 3volt battery reads 3.17volts, so it cant be a duff battery surely? Another thing, the manual key blade doesnt work in the drivers door to lock it either! It just wont turn either way?

[@cp_pdn]

So this is ONLY for E60 / E90s ...?

[@AB-C1]

Is the vapour canister fitted to the e46 and E90 M47 diesels Dean? As I've always had a slight issue blip on tick over on the E90 from new and E46 started recently on 126k Thanks

[@BMWDoctor]

Yes mate diesels have this as well if you go check mate it should be there come back and let me know if yours has it and what year is your E46 and E90 I know your E90 will have this bro

[@AB-C1]

@@BMWDoctor thanks mate the E46 is late 54plate and the E90 June 07 (literally just before the N47 was introduced), so both M47 engine mate. I'll have a check at weekend on the E46 as no covers on back arches so should be visible E90 not with me currently, but will check when I get a chance

[@E92325i]

Hey dean just wondering if u can help me out. My car keeps misfiring really bad on cylinder 5, I’ve changed the spark plug the ignition coil I’ve changed the valve cover gasket and even swapped the fuel injector out and it keeps coming back always cylinder 5?

Hi from Western Australia, love your work. Question. Iam looking to buy a e60 M5 , has had SMG pump and, clutch and flywheel done. When cycling down the gears down to first then neutral , the red cog of death appears intermittently. Only on the odd occasions. The the car won’t start until, you cycle the gears through neutral and first the the fault clears. Then it’s all fine again. Could this be an electrical switch issue? Thanks for any help.

Yet another very handy video.. Would a blocked/faulty canister cause the hissing when the fuel cap is removed? Tia.

[@BMWDoctor]

Yep it sure will my friend that’s exactly the symptom right there my friend 😃 save your car now that means the tank is under pressure not good it will collapse your fuel tank. Replace it now

YOU are a godsend! I literally was outside taking look at my vapor canister, because I have been noticing fuel smell when I fill up my car and checked everything even had a look at fuel pump and filter under rear seat and it was ok and my last hope was this dam canister. Mine has a electric pump on it called dtml pump cause am in USA and emission here are so dam strict. My car is 07 E60 530i . So I come back in the house and turn the you tube on and here you u are just posted a video about dam canister.. lol.. before I replace it just a quick question.. could this canister cause a fuel smell ? I have no codes or other issues.

[@BMWDoctor]

Yep it does indeed my friend fuel smell exactly filter is clogged !! 😃 common common issue that Bmw the 🛎 ends don’t tell you about as they know when it backs up with pressure it crushes your fuel tank then needing a new fuel tank which is more expensive means more money for them

[@eldin9117]

@@BMWDoctor Thanks man . I just got off the phone local bmw dealer has one in stock 145.00 dollars.. which is expensive but I was thinking it will be like 300 form a dealer , I looked on e bay and all China crap , so bought genuine one . Thanks you again !

[@BMWDoctor]

Eldon Mate always my pleasure bro from across the pond I know what you mean bro it’s a heap of s**t emission related part and that’s why it’s expensive as BMW knows it FAILS and destroys the car that people NEED this part badly and it’s a common common problem

Hey keep up the great content. I’m sorry your rap video wasn’t super well received. Maybe if you made an explanation video or gave a heads up it would’ve gone smoother. We thought you were hacked honestly

[@ATEC101]

The most common reason for the evaporator canister to fail on any an all vehicles is owner over filling the tank and liquid fuel or gas contamination of the canister. By the way, an evaporator canister for a Ford F150 can cost over 200USD, 150-200USD for a Honda Civic. Don't claim BMW's are expensive in comparison to other makes. Every OEM part can be expensive.

Thanks for sharing........It is ridiculous, that that little box of plastic, metal and charcoal costs 180 pounds, which is more than 200USD. If it truly was a $200 part it, should never need changing, it should last the life of the car. It should be no more than $50.......This is why BMW gets a bad name. I should not complain because most of the auto manufacturers are not far behind or on the same page.
