What are the symptoms of a bad PCV, can it cause multiple misfires under load as if the high pressure fuel pump is failing?

[@Zeiten]

On n55 usually whistling sound. It goes away if you open oil cap. I haven’t seen pcv causing multiple misfires in n55

[@federicotorresbordils7624]

That HPFP is very much smaller than the ones on the N53 and N54 engines, which get 200 bar. BimmerN53

Hi Zeiten, I'm thinking I have a HPFP issue on my F10 N55 engine. No codes on the DME or EKPS, but I have a crank no start situation. I have compression, spark, ignition pulse, and a functioning LPFP based on my Foxwell NT510 elite scanner testing but I have no fuel going to the cylinders. Spraying starter fluid will temporarily start the engine but it dies out. Are those the signs of a bad HPFP?

[@Zeiten]

Check live data of rail pressure actual/setpoint values

[@user-ji3wl5qp9y]

@@Zeiten You are the man. Fuel low pressure was at 680 kPa. The setpoint moved while I was turning the engine, but the rail pressure didn't budge at all. Thanks a million.

Good afternoon can you please help with this question I have a BMW x5 2008 3.0si e70 I need to replace the engine vacuum pump I want to know if I need to remove all the pulley and timing chain cover because the vacuum pump is located underneath the intake manifold but looks like come with sprocket ⚙️

[@Zeiten]

Yes you’ll need to remove drive belt tensioner and you’ll find rubber cover that covers this sprocket, no need to remove timing covers make sure you don’t drop the chain it will be pain in the butt to fish it out

[@armandohilario]

@@Zeiten I need any special tools to remove the sprocket or not necessary thank you so much for your help

[@Zeiten]

@armandohilario not as far as i remember a few torx bit standard bmw tools but don’t think it’s an easy job it is not at all

[@armandohilario]

@@Zeiten if the pump goes bad it will cause vacuum leaks?

[@Zeiten]

@armandohilario not necessarily

[@rawevoli]

Heard all those gay m stripes cause dtcs

Boss...I have 07 x3 and have it on 230k and need to upgrade....of course I try to do everything that I can and need your advice which bmw should I go for......heard the newer models are pretty good but mucho money...from 2011-2015 x3 I am told to stay away so...your advise is greatly appreciated Thnx

[@Zeiten]

Well there is nothing wrong with f25 x3 as long as you have n55 engine in there so i would look for later models of f25 x3 xdrive35i

[@jandraravi9816]

@@Zeiten ma man...thank you....when you say latter models from 2016 through 2024.....thnx

[@Zeiten]

@jandraravi9816 if you want something on a cheaper side go for 2015-2017 although i have nothing against 2011-2014 models with n55 engine

[@Zeiten]

@jandraravi9816 2018-2024 would be the latest x3 so those will be pricey and engines in opinion are more reliable in previous generation

[@jandraravi9816]

@Zeiten Thank you and I will try those....jeep up the good work.
