[@petershulick5270]

I'm not sure how soon you can reply back to me but I need to know something as soon as possible? I'm going to try your ad temptation scenario that you mentioned so that I can see if it will remove my check engine light I got the p-zero 12 are and I also had one previous to this which was something correlation between the crank sensor and the camshaft sensors which I tried replacing but did not resolve the problem so I put the original BMW sensors back in and what I read online was the video Siemens and original BMW sensors are probably the only ones that will work properly in the engine? Anyway I hope he can get back to me and let me know I could not restart or start my engine after I did a valve cover gasket replacement this is when this problem cropped up? I had nothing to do with any sensors of anything of any sort I got the new gasket in took a couple days to get it right get the gasket to where it's at the flat in the cover overnight and finally got it installed and sinks down, I had to order a torque wrench that went down to 503 Newton very low settings, anyway not to get sidetracked, anyway I'm going to try this procedure and see if it will get rid of the check engine light as well as the pzero 12 error and will allow the engine to start when I crank it over where it's beforehand it was not starting after I did this replacement?

[@6ixgarage]

This method wont really cause any further problems. Its simply removes are stored adaptations so if you've replaced a few sensors or if you're noticing throttle body related codes or if you noticed your car is down on throttle response, this will definitely clear those issues and help. You should also in your case check the oil filter cannister to make sure its not damaged in any way and both o rings are set correctly. Somtimes those cause issues with oil starvation to the solenoids and can cause that p0012 fault code.

[@petershulick5270]

Anyway to get back with you, I downloaded protool but will that interface with the Bluetooth on board the vehicle or do I have to have a Bluetooth odbc2 plug in order to connect to the vehicle diagnostic?

[@6ixgarage]

You will need to either buy the protool bluetooth dongle and attach it to the obd2 port or you can buy the obd2 to usb cable and connect direcly to your phone

Waoo Amazing. I have a 2009 X5. I have an engine light with P0012 and P0015 however I saw this video and did the reset and now it has more power it is actually taking off the way it should, before it was feeling very heavy.

Is it possible for your throttle response to go to shit if you don’t do this after a fuel pump being changed? And if so can it be fixed by doing this after a few thousand miles?

[@6ixgarage]

This will help your throttle reset to factory settings so if you're having laggy throttle response, its definitely worth a try. Although I've never heard that after a fuel pump change, throttle response went down. There's no harm in doing this regardless to see if it'll help.

Hi, please help, j7st changed my alternator on e87 2005 model 116i, 2d03 error code reads throttle valve actuator, did the adaptation but still losing power with orange lights coming on ?

[@6ixgarage]

I believe the throttle valve requires a different adaptation. Is your alternator charging the battery at the correct rate? I've seen cases in BMWs where if the battery is not holding the correct charge then some sensors act up. Start there to confirm and then also you'll find a different procudure for your exact error.

[@tango02ful]

Hi , thanks I think the battery is charging well, some guy checked it before alternator was changed, brake sensors were faulty and changed them on Tuesday 13 April, error came up saying something like DSC availability etc , which was cleared and cars not come up with any issues so far after doing 70 miles on and off. Can brake sensors trigger dash orange lights ?@@6ixgarage

[@6ixgarage]

Dcs lights will come on if the abs sensors are faulty. Common issue with a lot of cars in general becuase they're located right behind the brakes and get ruined from rain, snow etc. They wont trigger engine lights but dsc and abs lights for sure

You'll have to cut open the wiring harness that came with the headunit. You'll see 2 plugs when you remove the headunit. Unplug and remove both and check if they're connected to the right pins. Otherwise, see if the vendor sells another wiring kit.

[@6ixgarage]

Sounds like your fuel pump is on its way out. Before replacing any parts, its worth scanning your car to see if there are codes. If there arent any, you should use a shop grade scanner and check if all the parameters are within specifications like checking your throttle pedal to see if it responds quick, check to see fuel amount the pump is outputting and all. It'll help with the diagnosis

[@Hi-pt2nq]

@@6ixgarage thank you very much, really appreciate, scanner didn't say anything I best check shop grade scanner

[@6ixgarage]

No problem! Also check your coil packs, they could be causing this too. Based on what you're experiencing, I suspect the fuel pump more but it's possible its the coil packs too. Hope you tried that steps in the video before you go and replace parts. Keep me posted on how it goes 🙂

It doesnt hurt to try but a low voltage circuit could be due to either some sensor issue or your battery is on its way out. Either way, the process to do the throttle reset is the same for the f30 so give it a try. You never know, it might fix it for free :)

Hi you can try but to be honest I think you have vanos issues. Likely one of a many possible causes for those 2 codes. I'll be making another video about those codes specifically soon but until then please try cleaning your vanos solenoids. If that fixes your problem, you're lucky. If not, you potentially have bad solenoids or you can have broken bolts on the vanos unit which is very common.

Will this help with the unsolved code 2D2E ???

[@6ixgarage]

Its possible but I think that's more related to a vacuum leak. I think you should check the vacuum lines that are under the intake. There should be 1 big one that's a quick disconnect that usually people have trouble with.

Yea thats a similar issue to what I've seen before. I think its a vacuum line to the throttle body. Check for cracks

I mistakenly did an adaptation reset with inpa on my 2005 130i without plugging the valvetronic motor back in and had these codes that wouldn't go away no matter how i reset the adaptations and erased the codes after plugging it back in.

[@kayrams1792]

I really don't understand why German automobile engineers would built spectacular car bodies, interiors and good suspension but fail dismally to built reliable engines. BMW and Benz are rated junk if you understand what it means by the world most unreliable cars. Every part start to break after 100k miles. This is completely disappointing for cars which are overhyped and overrated brands.

[@6ixgarage]

I couldn’t agree with that at all. There’s bad models/ engines from every manufacturer. Yes bmw have been known to make less reliable engines in the past but certainly have improved over time. For context, the n52 in the 328s are great little engines, not focused on power or anything. There are bulletproof diesel engines made by both BMW and VW which people drive over 700k. Performance engines do have a lot more load which reduces overall reliability. Do you think a turbo 1.5 from Honda will outlast a new k24 non turbo…highly doubt it…but that’s a consequence of trying to add performance and also improve efficiency.

[@jenmeza5026]

This doesn't work he tells you to keep your foot on the break and press the start button. In doing that it turns the.car.on . He needs to explain correctly because when you have your foot on the peddle it will turn on. Smdh

I literally said at 2:40 to not put your foot on the brake. I think you misheard the video. It has worked for many others.
