    I hate fighting things in cramped spaces. I think i had removed the wiper arms, the cowl, everything that was annoying me. The first time I did it, was on a N52 E90 and i was fighting to get it off. I eventually did get tbe cover out but it took too long. The second time, I removed the brackets, cowl, wipers and it went so well. The idea is that you don't want risk the gasket not sitting right. It happened to me on a Mercedes that I did the valve cover and it was a pain. When I got it back together and it was leaking still, I was so upset. I took off the gasket, used window glue to hold it straight and put it back on and sent it 😂. It never leaked again.

      Sorry to say that changing tire size like this can lead to transfer case failure. I have seen it many times. I would recommend going back to the stock tire sizes and rims and maybe the fluid change will help. Damage to the transfer case can result if not and replacement will be needed.

      Any modification is possible with the right motivation. I don't see how you would get the LCM to power it unless you borrowed power and ground and added a separate switch to activate the circuit. And you would need to run new wires to them.

      No quite sure what component is the longitudinal torque module? Do you have a part number for that? Unless you mean the transfer case motor module. I cannot say I have replaced one on a newer BMW. I would have to say the motor module is normally not the failure. Unless you have some odd VIP ICM Steering failures which can bring down the FlexRay Bus. That can be caused the this module. But not this symptom.

After I finally changed the other tires, the reader wouldn't connect to the van any longer so I updated the software on the scanner.

    Received an immaculate 2009 328ix SULEV with 78k, seized motor. Like, it won't budge even a millimeter. Haven't scanned the car in INPA yet, but there are a ton of codes thrown on my cheapie scanner. P0015, P0012, P1020, P1056, P1224, P1625, P164C. This indicates an upper valvetronic issue, however I wouldn't expect a seizure from that. The yellow coolant and ! come on with the accessory, thinking it may have been an overheat/seize. Had a look in the cylinders with my borescope, and oddly they're not scored. It's a stretch, but, does the SULEV warranty cover engine damage caused by a part that would be covered... like say a failed water pump?

      @AskTheCarExperts -- I tried to do the self-bleed routine, the water pump definitely does not kick on. The overflow was empty so I backfilled with some distilled water. I called BMW earlier, they said the car is still under SULEV warranty until August and is due for a PCV recall. LOL, ok. I explained the situation, they said they'd take a look at it for $258. I mentioned my thoughts on the water pump being the root cause for the engine seizing, and it seems he just wanted me to bring it in to spend money and determine a root cause for possible warranty claim. Though after our call, researching the SULEV warranty more, it appears to NOT include the water pump, nor presumably any failures as a result of a water pump failure. I SWEAR I read somewhere that the water pump was covered, but I'm now thinking it was thermostat coverage I saw. Gahh.. this could be a lost cause after all.

      Turns out the water pump is good -- I had the heat controls set wrong is all. Once that was corrected, the water pump ran through the bleed cycle. So it seems it's either the thermostat being stuck closed seized it (doubtful), or something mechanical with the timing components that is holding this motor tight.

    do you have to hook up a battery maintainer and also how do you access the menu on the dash?

    • @AskTheCarExperts
      @AskTheCarExperts 10 дней назад

      No, I do not like to use those. That keeps power live in the vehicle and creates a possible short and damage.

    Hello, I know it’s unrelated but as due to this being your most recent upload I thought I’d ask here. I have a 118i 2018. I was just moving the drivers side mirror and it suddenly just stopped and now none of the drivers door switches are working, nor is the childlock button lighting up. Do you have any idea on what has happened here and what I could do to fix it. The windows work when I hold the badge on the fob and all other windows work perfectly. Any help would be much appreciated!

    • @AskTheCarExperts

      Hello, This could be a failure of the main switch block or a LIN bus issue. If the windows work from the other door switches I would swap out the driver switch block.

    When you perform oil priming procedure, can you remove the fuel injector fuse instead of disconnecting each injector? If so can you tell me the fuse number for a 2013 bmw x5 VIN 5UXZV4C52D0E07865. Thank you.

    • @AskTheCarExperts
      @AskTheCarExperts 10 дней назад

      Hello, There is no specific fuse for the fuel injectors. Power and ground is directly from the DME. You can unplug the low side fuel pump. Or best to disconnect the plug for the injectors at the DME.

    Changed fluid on transfer box and both Diffs on F25 2013 auto xdrive. Car feels amazing now and shifts quicker and quieter than before considering it’s done 124000m However since changing the transfer fluid I’ve noticed when car heats up it has a slight shuddering feel to it when accelerating up to 3 gear almost. I’m taking to a local mechanic today to see if he can reset DTF? If not I may change fluid again.

      I hope it helps. If not, disconnect the transfer case motor electrical plug and test drive. If the symptom is gone, then the TC would need replacement.
