  1. Hello there, Bit of a silly Question here 2010 320d touring Are the rear discs the same size as front discs ? I ordered a full set of disks and pads from local stealer and rear ones were 15mm smaller ???
  2. Cheers again Dave Not blanked the EGR..... yet....... I will get on the "check hoses" mode when i get home will get back with results Ta
  3. Hello again I have a 2010 320d 91, I had an issue with the turbo actuator which I thot that I had fixed after advice from here, (thanks again) it turned out that I needed a new turbo, (a pin that went from turbo to actuator had sheered inside turbo,) so was advised to get a recon turbo as a repair to the original would cost about the same, new turbo fitted.... so now and then... I have a stutter and yellow engine light comes on, but only at low speeds, driving at 60-70 car is fine Foxwell reader shows no faults when car ignition is on but when running live data some jbe and egr faults come up then go away again could this be something to do with stuff being removed when new turbo was fitted. ?? CHerrs Gus
  4. Well thats 200miles done from sunday morning and no Light looks like that was the fix, Thanks again for the help, next question coming soon 🤣🤣🤣🤣

  6. took it a 20 mile run, no light on, used obd reader, came up with lots of faults, guessing it was all the bits and bobs i took apart, cleared all codes and, its the first time i've been able to clear the boost actuator fault, and it didnt come back will see over the next couple of days and update post thanks again for your help Gus
  7. just done a 20mile run, no light..... fingers crossed
  8. Cheers for the replys engineer friend tested Alternator and said it all seemed fine, battery is only a year old and seems ok, but i have receipt in book and it has a two year warranty, so i will take car to garage and get them to test, disconnected plugs Actuator and cleaned connections, which looked spotless Is there a diy way to test Actuator ?, if not I would be as well getting a new or repaired done as garage would charge for test then charge for repair lol Its just a bit worrying, as I said, there are no ill effects, .......yet...... :)
  9. Cheers Dave I hate being a noob to a car, not got a clue with this one, had a Rangerover with a BMW 2.5 diesel engine in it, Now thats a car with faults and many of them lol Will give that battery thing a try, and got some good cleaner from a sparky at work, well... he said its good Before I go disconnecting stuff would you know if the Radio has a code, as I don't seem to have one written down anywhere in the book I have, cant help with model but it says professional on it, I cant clear fault, as soon as i clear it, scanner retests and its back, Once again Thanks for reply, appreciated Gus
  10. Cheers for the Reply, I have a foxwell bmw/mini reader, It worked to clear all the brake warnings after I had replaced them, the warning light and ping is random, at first I thot it was when the car was cold, but it still happens when car is warm, but….definitely happens less on longer runs, I will try unplugging and reconnecting stuff at the weekend and see what I can break 😊 Thanks again
  11. Good morning ladies and gentlepersons, I’m new to this forum But have been visiting from when I bought my 2010 320d touring, I have only one issue that I’m wondering if anyone can advise on, The Yellow engine management light comes on for about 10 seconds then goes out, this happens every 3-4 mins, there are no ill effects with car, drives like new, no power loss, no strange noises. My obd reader says boost pressure actuator fault, but reading the forums there always seems to be a loss of power with this, The car has 60k on it and hadn’t mover for 5 months before I got it, only doing 300 miles in 2 years, renewed brakes and changed oil and its running sweet Any Ideas ??
