  1. Crankcase breather.

    jon searle posted a topic in BMW 5 Series Forum
    Hi all, just joined this forum after a purchase of a 530d m sport, its had a DPF delete and remap drives really well, long test drive etc,and I have just started to panic. it has intermittent smoking which it only started doing at the beginning of the drive home yesterday, and when I took it out this morning while the roads were clear. any other time its fine its just putting me off driving it as I cant predict when its going to happen! during a sleepless night on google I read that the crankcase breathers sometime go faulty causing the problem and I cant find a receipt for one amongst the service paperwork. could it be due to the dpf delete? i'm not new to cars but this type of diesel is new to me so any advice to maybe stop me worrying would be greatly received! 2006 530d m sport Thanks in advance
