Crankcase Ventilation System Diagnosis and Measurement

MODEL

All

INFORMATION

All current BMW engines incorporate a pressure-controlled crankcase ventilation system. The crankcase ventilation systems use various different

crankcase ventilation valves, depending on the engine type. Although the valves all look different, they function similarly, using a spring and

diaphragm assembly to control the crankcase pressure. A properly functioning pressure control valve is designed to maintain a slight vacuum

(underpressure) in the crankcase, which assures reliable crankcase venting during all engine operating conditions. Some of the causes and results of a

malfunctioning crankcase ventilation system are listed below.

Causes of Excessive Overpressure (Pressure)

^ Internal engine damage/wear

2020-2020 BMW 650i Coupe (E63) V8-4.8L (N62TU) Page 498

^ Obstruction in the crankcase ventilation system

^ Defective pressure control valve(s)

Results of Excessive Overpressure

^ Damage to the engine oil seals

^ Increased engine oil consumption (can be misdiagnosed as a defective turbocharger)

^ Excessive engine oil in the intake system

^ Excessive engine oil in the charged intake tubes or the intercooler on turbocharged engines (can be misdiagnosed as a defective turbocharger)

^ Engine oil dip stick is dislodged from the guide tube (if equipped)

Cause of Excessive Underpressure (Vacuum)

^ Defective pressure control valve

Results of Excessive Underpressure

^ Damage to the engine oil seals

^ Increased engine oil consumption

^ Excessive engine oil in the intake system

^ Rough engine idling or engine misfire

^ Whistling or howling noise from the engine (can be misdiagnosed as a defective turbocharger)

^ Increased mixture adaptation values

Attached to this Service Information bulletin is a procedure for measuring the crankcase ventilation system, using the ISID and IMIB diagnostic

equipment.

Discharged Battery: Energy Diagnosis Must Be Performed

MODEL

[NEW] All vehicles produced from 3/2004 (except I-Bus vehicles)

2020-2020 BMW 650i Coupe (E63) V8-4.8L (N62TU) Page 495

[NEW] SITUATION

The electrical system of BMW vehicles has been subject to an ongoing development process over the last few years. This has led to increased

demands being placed on the battery. This document covers important information for the dealer on how to handle "discharged battery" complaints.

In order to properly repair the vehicle the first time in the workshop, it is very important that the diagnostic test plans are performed to completion,

with all results taken into consideration. The procedure as outlined below contains information that will guide the technician to properly repairing the

vehicle and getting paid for a warranty claim.

[NEW] CAUSE

A discharged battery can have various causes, most of which do not concern the battery itself. A failed battery is often the symptom and not the

cause. A fully serviceable battery fails when an electrical component causes the battery to discharge; the battery becomes internally damaged and

must be replaced. For more information, refer to www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-42B.htm. For this reason, replacing the battery is not usually a

permanent repair. The cause of the discharged battery must be analyzed in order to guarantee a proper repair.

[NEW] PROCEDURE

Before starting diagnosis, refer to the attached flowchart which will guide you through this procedure, and can be used as a reference guide for all

E-Series and FO1/F02 vehicles produced up to 9/2010.

For F10 vehicles and later with advanced onboard battery diagnostics, please refer to SI B61 02 11.

For all models, "Energy Diagnosis" must be performed on all discharged battery complaints. At the conclusion of the "Energy Diagnosis" test plan, a

diagnostic code is generated. The exceptions are:

^ "Exhaustive Battery discharge" test plan results

^ "Terminal 30g-f shutdown due to start capability limit"

These 2 exceptions are displayed for informational purposes only, and would not display a diagnostic code. In these cases, the most likely cause is a

faulty battery, and this can be determined by the Midtronics battery tester.

1. Fault analysis (Energy Diagnosis)

Complete the energy diagnosis test plan on every vehicle with a discharged battery. There are currently two paths to access the energy diagnosis

test plan:

^ If a power management fault is stored, ISTA will select the energy diagnosis test plan automatically.

^ The test plan can also be selected manually: "Function structure > Body > Power supply > Energy Diagnosis."

2. Once the test plan has finished, the number [1] "Most Likely Cause" is automatically displayed if any faults are calculated by the test plan. Finish

the test plan by processing all the "Most Likely Causes," starting from [1]. The most recent cause of a discharged battery is listed under [1]. If no

"Most Likely Causes" are calculated, the results screen will be displayed: "Most Likely Cause (0)," diagnostic code is undetermined.

3. The following is a list of reasons for a discharged battery, indicated by the results of the test plan.

A. Examples of vehicle faults

^ Battery fault (aged battery - only on IBS-equipped vehicles)

^ Alternator fault

^ Vehicle is not entering sleep mode (sleep mode prevented)

^ Vehicle is constantly woken from sleep mode

^ Closed-circuit current is too high

^ Closed-circuit current infringement

^ Exhaustive battery charge (for information only)

^ Terminal 30g-f shutdown due to start capability limit (for information only)

^ Terminal 30F shutdown due to start capability limit (for information only)

^ Terminal 30B electric fan or coolant pump after-run (for information only)

^ Undetermined

2020-2020 BMW 650i Coupe (E63) V8-4.8L (N62TU) Page 496

B. Examples of operating faults

^ Lights/hazard warning lights left on for too long

^ Terminal R or terminal 15 left on for too long (this fault may also be set when the vehicle is in the workshop - refer to the mileage that the

fault set in order to determine this). Except for the vehicles listed below, the fault is set when the engine is off and terminal R or terminal 15

is left on for more than 30 minutes; and the power supply drops below 11.5 volts for at least 2 minutes. The amount of time that terminal R or

terminal 15 is left on is accurate.

^ E65 and E66 (7 Series)

^ E90, E91, and E92 (3 Series) prior to 3/07

^ E60 and E61 (5 Series), vehicle integration level prior to E060-07-09-500

^ E63 and E64 (6 Series), vehicle integration level prior to E060-07-09-500

^ E70 (X5) prior to 3/07

^ Vehicle parked for too long

^ Vehicle use when stationary

If a new battery is installed, the "Energy Diagnosis" test plan should be completed prior to registering the new battery. When the battery is

registered, the stored energy history is deleted. This may cause the vehicle to return if the root cause of the discharged battery is not determined.

WARRANTY INFORMATION

In order to claim an eligible faulty battery either under the BMW New Vehicle/SAV Limited Warranty or the BMW Original Parts Warranty

(In-center workshop repairs), the Energy Diagnosis test plan must be performed to completion.

When required, a Midtronics' Battery Test procedure must also be performed. The Midtronic battery tester printout(s) must be retained with the

repair order.

To assist you in determining the warranty coverage on a battery, please refer to the following guidelines:

Covered under warranty,

^ A diagnostic code is generated for a vehicle fault

^ A diagnostic code is undetermined

^ A diagnostic code is generated for an operating fault such as unfavorable driving profile (e.g., driven extremely short distances) and the

Midtronics battery tester or Energy Diagnosis results indicate the battery needs to be replaced.

A "Stand-alone" faulty battery is claimed using the battery defect code listed in KSD2.

Other Repairs

If it is determined that some other covered vehicle fault and repair caused the battery to fail, the failed battery is to be claimed under the KSD2

defect code that applies to the failed (casual) component or repair (e.g. Alternator, permanent failure).

[NEW] Note:

Please follow any TeileClearing (TC) or Diagcode (DC) requirements that may apply to this work.

Not covered under warranty,

^ A diagnostic code is generated for an operating fault such as leaving the lights on, vehicle parked too long, battery not maintained etc.

Discharged Battery: Energy Diagnosis Must Be Performed

MODEL

[NEW] All vehicles produced from 3/2004 (except I-Bus vehicles)

2010-2020 BMW 535i Sedan (E60) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) Page 540

[NEW] SITUATION

The electrical system of BMW vehicles has been subject to an ongoing development process over the last few years. This has led to increased

demands being placed on the battery. This document covers important information for the dealer on how to handle "discharged battery" complaints.

In order to properly repair the vehicle the first time in the workshop, it is very important that the diagnostic test plans are performed to completion,

with all results taken into consideration. The procedure as outlined below contains information that will guide the technician to properly repairing the

vehicle and getting paid for a warranty claim.

[NEW] CAUSE

A discharged battery can have various causes, most of which do not concern the battery itself. A failed battery is often the symptom and not the

cause. A fully serviceable battery fails when an electrical component causes the battery to discharge; the battery becomes internally damaged and

must be replaced. For more information, refer to www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-42B.htm. For this reason, replacing the battery is not usually a

permanent repair. The cause of the discharged battery must be analyzed in order to guarantee a proper repair.

[NEW] PROCEDURE

Before starting diagnosis, refer to the attached flowchart which will guide you through this procedure, and can be used as a reference guide for all

E-Series and FO1/F02 vehicles produced up to 9/2010.

For F10 vehicles and later with advanced onboard battery diagnostics, please refer to SI B61 02 11.

For all models, "Energy Diagnosis" must be performed on all discharged battery complaints. At the conclusion of the "Energy Diagnosis" test plan, a

diagnostic code is generated. The exceptions are:

^ "Exhaustive Battery discharge" test plan results

^ "Terminal 30g-f shutdown due to start capability limit"

These 2 exceptions are displayed for informational purposes only, and would not display a diagnostic code. In these cases, the most likely cause is a

faulty battery, and this can be determined by the Midtronics battery tester.

1. Fault analysis (Energy Diagnosis)

Complete the energy diagnosis test plan on every vehicle with a discharged battery. There are currently two paths to access the energy diagnosis

test plan:

^ If a power management fault is stored, ISTA will select the energy diagnosis test plan automatically.

^ The test plan can also be selected manually: "Function structure > Body > Power supply > Energy Diagnosis."

2. Once the test plan has finished, the number [1] "Most Likely Cause" is automatically displayed if any faults are calculated by the test plan. Finish

the test plan by processing all the "Most Likely Causes," starting from [1]. The most recent cause of a discharged battery is listed under [1]. If no

"Most Likely Causes" are calculated, the results screen will be displayed: "Most Likely Cause (0)," diagnostic code is undetermined.

3. The following is a list of reasons for a discharged battery, indicated by the results of the test plan.

A. Examples of vehicle faults

^ Battery fault (aged battery - only on IBS-equipped vehicles)

^ Alternator fault

^ Vehicle is not entering sleep mode (sleep mode prevented)

^ Vehicle is constantly woken from sleep mode

^ Closed-circuit current is too high

^ Closed-circuit current infringement

^ Exhaustive battery charge (for information only)

^ Terminal 30g-f shutdown due to start capability limit (for information only)

^ Terminal 30F shutdown due to start capability limit (for information only)

^ Terminal 30B electric fan or coolant pump after-run (for information only)

^ Undetermined

2010-2020 BMW 535i Sedan (E60) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) Page 541

B. Examples of operating faults

^ Lights/hazard warning lights left on for too long

^ Terminal R or terminal 15 left on for too long (this fault may also be set when the vehicle is in the workshop - refer to the mileage that the

fault set in order to determine this). Except for the vehicles listed below, the fault is set when the engine is off and terminal R or terminal 15

is left on for more than 30 minutes; and the power supply drops below 11.5 volts for at least 2 minutes. The amount of time that terminal R or

terminal 15 is left on is accurate.

^ E65 and E66 (7 Series)

^ E90, E91, and E92 (3 Series) prior to 3/07

^ E60 and E61 (5 Series), vehicle integration level prior to E060-07-09-500

^ E63 and E64 (6 Series), vehicle integration level prior to E060-07-09-500

^ E70 (X5) prior to 3/07

^ Vehicle parked for too long

^ Vehicle use when stationary

If a new battery is installed, the "Energy Diagnosis" test plan should be completed prior to registering the new battery. When the battery is

registered, the stored energy history is deleted. This may cause the vehicle to return if the root cause of the discharged battery is not determined.

WARRANTY INFORMATION

In order to claim an eligible faulty battery either under the BMW New Vehicle/SAV Limited Warranty or the BMW Original Parts Warranty

(In-center workshop repairs), the Energy Diagnosis test plan must be performed to completion.

When required, a Midtronics' Battery Test procedure must also be performed. The Midtronic battery tester printout(s) must be retained with the

repair order.

To assist you in determining the warranty coverage on a battery, please refer to the following guidelines:

Covered under warranty,

^ A diagnostic code is generated for a vehicle fault

^ A diagnostic code is undetermined

^ A diagnostic code is generated for an operating fault such as unfavorable driving profile (e.g., driven extremely short distances) and the

Midtronics battery tester or Energy Diagnosis results indicate the battery needs to be replaced.

A "Stand-alone" faulty battery is claimed using the battery defect code listed in KSD2.

Other Repairs

If it is determined that some other covered vehicle fault and repair caused the battery to fail, the failed battery is to be claimed under the KSD2

defect code that applies to the failed (casual) component or repair (e.g. Alternator, permanent failure).

[NEW] Note:

Please follow any TeileClearing (TC) or Diagcode (DC) requirements that may apply to this work.

Not covered under warranty,

^ A diagnostic code is generated for an operating fault such as leaving the lights on, vehicle parked too long, battery not maintained etc.

Crankcase Ventilation System Diagnosis and Measurement

MODEL

All

INFORMATION

All current BMW engines incorporate a pressure-controlled crankcase ventilation system. The crankcase ventilation systems use various different

crankcase ventilation valves, depending on the engine type. Although the valves all look different, they function similarly, using a spring and

diaphragm assembly to control the crankcase pressure. A properly functioning pressure control valve is designed to maintain a slight vacuum

(underpressure) in the crankcase, which assures reliable crankcase venting during all engine operating conditions. Some of the causes and results of a

malfunctioning crankcase ventilation system are listed below.

Causes of Excessive Overpressure (Pressure)

^ Internal engine damage/wear

2010-2020 BMW 528i (E60) L6-3.0L (N52K) Page 484

^ Obstruction in the crankcase ventilation system

^ Defective pressure control valve(s)

Results of Excessive Overpressure

^ Damage to the engine oil seals

^ Increased engine oil consumption (can be misdiagnosed as a defective turbocharger)

^ Excessive engine oil in the intake system

^ Excessive engine oil in the charged intake tubes or the intercooler on turbocharged engines (can be misdiagnosed as a defective turbocharger)

^ Engine oil dip stick is dislodged from the guide tube (if equipped)

Cause of Excessive Underpressure (Vacuum)

^ Defective pressure control valve

Results of Excessive Underpressure

^ Damage to the engine oil seals

^ Increased engine oil consumption

SITUATION

Two errors may be encountered when performing Test Plan B1214_DI6KDR - Fuel Pressure Control with the current version of ISTA/D:

^ On the last step when the diagnosis code is displayed, the test plan may state to replace the fuel low-pressure sensor and that a Bosch sensor

will need to be installed.

^ The right side of the test plan screen will provide two incorrect pictures and statements describing the fuel low-pressure sensors.

All of the statements related to the identification of the fuel low-pressure sensor are incorrect. Replace the fuel low-pressure sensor that is identified

in ETK only after entering the vehicle identification number. Do not replace the metal fuel line with this pressure sensor.

This error will be corrected in ISTA/D 3.39.0.

Crankcase Ventilation System Diagnosis and Measurement

MODEL

All

INFORMATION

All current BMW engines incorporate a pressure-controlled crankcase ventilation system. The crankcase ventilation systems use various different

crankcase ventilation valves, depending on the engine type. Although the valves all look different, they function similarly, using a spring and

diaphragm assembly to control the crankcase pressure. A properly functioning pressure control valve is designed to maintain a slight vacuum

(underpressure) in the crankcase, which assures reliable crankcase venting during all engine operating conditions. Some of the causes and results of a

malfunctioning crankcase ventilation system are listed below.

Causes of Excessive Overpressure (Pressure)

^ Internal engine damage/wear

^ Obstruction in the crankcase ventilation system

^ Defective pressure control valve(s)

Results of Excessive Overpressure

^ Damage to the engine oil seals

^ Increased engine oil consumption (can be misdiagnosed as a defective turbocharger)

^ Excessive engine oil in the intake system

^ Excessive engine oil in the charged intake tubes or the intercooler on turbocharged engines (can be misdiagnosed as a defective turbocharger)

^ Engine oil dip stick is dislodged from the guide tube (if equipped)

Cause of Excessive Underpressure (Vacuum)

^ Defective pressure control valve

Results of Excessive Underpressure

^ Damage to the engine oil seals

^ Increased engine oil consumption

^ Excessive engine oil in the intake system

^ Rough engine idling or engine misfire

^ Whistling or howling noise from the engine (can be misdiagnosed as a defective turbocharger)

2010-2020 BMW 335i Sedan (E90) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) Page 509

^ Increased mixture adaptation values

Attached to this Service Information bulletin is a procedure for measuring the crankcase ventilation system, using the ISID and IMIB diagnostic

equipment.

[NEW] Specification and actual readings from the vehicle may vary by up to +/-10%, but not more than 5.0 mBar. Various measuring tools may

provide results that are not within specification. All measurements below were recorded using the IMIB. See the attachment for IMIB connection

hints.

Recall 13V-044 - Repair Battery Positive Cable

SI B61 02 13

General Electrical Systems

March 2013

Technical Service

PERFORM THE PROCEDURE OUTLINED IN THIS SERVICE INFORMATION ON ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES BEFORE CUSTOMER

DELIVERY OR THE NEXT TIME THEY ARE IN THE SHOP FOR MAINTENANCE OR REPAIRS.

BMW centers must ensure recalls are completed after having been notified by BMW of North America, LLC (BMWNA) that a safety-related defect

or noncompliance exists in any motor vehicle or item of replacement equipment in the center's possession at the time of notification. In BMW NA's

case, this notification would typically be made by the issuance of a recall notification in the form of a Service Information bulletin (SIB) or

transmission of a Dealer Communication System (DCS) recall message.

Under the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966, as amended, if a recall campaign is announced by BMW NA, centers must ensure

that all recalls on new vehicles and new items of replacement equipment are completed BEFORE delivery to the consumer. This means that centers

may not legally deliver new motor vehicles or new items of replacement equipment to consumers with an open recall.

The Safety Act also prohibits centers from selling or leasing the motor vehicle or item of replacement equipment, unless and until the open recall has

been completed BEFORE delivery. This also pertains to vehicles in the Certified Pre-Owned program, and to items of replacement equipment.

Finally, BMW centers should not sell or use parts that have been recalled by BMW NA. Please follow the specific instructions provided by BMW

NA on the return or disposition of the parts.

Produced from March 2007 to October 2011 with option 823 (Hot climate version)

SITUATION

The plug-in contact of the positive battery cable at the front power distribution box (Junction Box) may be damaged by vehicle vibrations, which

cause corrosion and high resistance leading to high current loads. This impairs the power supply to the front power distribution box, and can cause

one or more of the following symptoms:

^ The vehicle does not start

^ Various electrical malfunctions, including flickering of the instrument cluster

^ Brief loss of engine power

^ In extremely isolated cases, the engine may shut off while driving, which leads to a loss of power steering assistance

AFFECTED VEHICLES

This Recall Campaign involves E82, E88, E89, E90, E91, E92 and E93 vehicles which were produced March 2007 to October 2011.

In order to determine whether a specific vehicle has had this Recall Campaign completed or is affected by this Recall Campaign, first check the

B-pillar label for code number 641. If code number 641 has been punched out, the campaign has already been performed. If code number 641 has

not been punched out, it will be necessary to utilize the "Service Menu" of DCSnet (Dealer Communication System) or the Key Reader. Based on

the response of the system either proceed with the corrective action or take no further action.

CORRECTION

Replace the positive battery cable at the front power distribution box.

SPECIAL TOOLS NEEDED

PROCEDURE

Replace the positive battery cable at the front power distribution box as per repair procedure attachment to this service information bulletin.

Note:

The tightening torque of the repair cable screw connection on the power distribution box is 1.0 Nm.
