  1. Hi Dave I also bought my OBD reader from ebay which I used a couple of years ago when I had a vanos solenoid (oil) problem, my car is in for a full service on Tuesday in Hull, I’m hoping the use of a good quality oil and a idle control valve clean will cure the problem, if not it’s off to a BMW specialist. I will post the outcome as this may help other people who may encounter the same problem. Dave.
  2. Hi Dave, I’m just using a standard reader which unfortunately will just get codes an enable me to erase codes
  3. Thanks Dave I have tested for codes and no codes are stored. Can anybody tell me the best oil to use for my car? It’s a 3.0 litre straight 6 272bhp with 130500 miles. Dave.
  4. Hi Trevor, Thank you ever so much for your reply, yes my car is in need of a service which i am having next Tuesday, if this doesn't cure my problem i will try your other suggestions. If my vanos selenoids are faulty or the idle control valve would this bring on my engine management light or could they still be faulty without bringing on my engine management light? Also can there be errors codes i can extract even if therte is no management light present? Thanks, Dave
  5. Hello, I wondered if anyone out there can help me? i am new to this site and i have a problem with my 330i Coupe Auto on a 2007 plate, The car has been running sound for the last 3 years then a couple of months ago i heard like a rubbing sound coming from my engine and when i came to a stop the revs were all over the place and the car was shaking and it sounded like it was running on 5 cylinders rather than 6, i turned the engine off and then the car was fine for about 500 miles, since then it's happened again three times and the same again, i turn it off and then it runs fine. The problems seems to be more frequent now, any advice will be much appreciated. VID-20191017-WA0000.mp4 VID-20191017-WA0001.mp4
