Some are 5v some 7v not sure if there any others but could be 12v ones. Yeah need to find out, considering it’s a new module you’d think it would be good to go, hopefully not broke it with using wrong plugs … But anyone knows what car places are like (gsf) for one always got parts wrong for mine 😂🙃

Did you check the voltage on the original plugs. Had the wrong voltage plugs for my 320d but the plugs looked the same. My e53 has had all failed plugs for the last 6 years and never failed to start it did have 1 good one 7 years ago lol. I’ll have to check it what’s it ment to be ? Anyone able to s ...

Still would love to know any configurations anyone’s tried. As this is the same error I had with last module and then it returned with vengeance. Worth checking resistance with the cables going to the plugs ?i.e continuity test. If there’s a break in the circuit would it give me this error. And if an ...

it doesn't sound like a heater plug issue more a supply to them issue , have you checked the fuse to the controller as that's the most likely to be the issue now id have thought ? Not sure where it would be if I’m honest 😂, I thought when I changed it over and cleared the codes it would have been th ...

When you changed the controller, who’s is it? Bosch glow plugs don’t play nicely with certain other brands such as BERU and possibly Hitachi. BMW specifically state not to use Bosch with BERU in the last Realoem update for later N57 engines. No reference for M57 engines having the same issue. Ge ...

Hello and good morning everyone ! I’ve probs mentioned this issue in previous posts but wanted to keep it separate, as other issues have all been sorted Anyway I replaced my glow plug relay with a new hitachi relay And all new Bosch glow plugs, checked all connectors and connections and all seemed w ...

Thanks for that I’ll have a look once I’m home from work

Cheers

Hello all! So it’s coming to that time of year need to get the car sorted for next years MOT My handbrake efficiency is crap, we have replaced the shoes and new disks and pads. However we think the cables may be rather stretched I’m on here to ask if there’s more then one I.e is there one from handb ...

fingers crossed !

I wasn’t aware the rear sensors played any part in headlight levelling. They keep the rear at a constant level via the air bags no matter what the load. me either but, issues only occasionally appeared when it was the front sensor at fault 😂 new one ordered, repair it next week for now it’s unplug ...

Update ironically it was the sensor end of rail ( connector clip snapped ) reconnected, codes cleared cable tied problem solved

Thanks for that mate, I suspect my front sensor has failed as even when it’s plugged in don’t function. It was working for a while, gradually got worse and then ended up being on the floor, rear sensors seem to be doing the job, no level issues and sensors all seem operational ( checked via diag) vo ...

Good morning everyone Thought I’d return to this lovely community for some information and see if anyone can advise My bmw has the lovely self leveling headlights that everyone loves (not) Anyway long story short recently I replaced the arm ( as it was broke ) and never had a issue.. till recently I’ ...

Hello you lovely people. Been happy motoring till today…. I replaced the fuel rail along with underline pump etc as i originally thought it was them and we found out it was that injector .. anyway was spotty dog since it was fixed. Lost power the other day and refused to start pulled the codes and g ...

Did you fit Bosch plugs and controller? I know there are issues between Beru and Bosch as the two makes are not compatible. I think you said it was a Hitachi (or similar controller) so just wondering aloud if there’s and issue with those two not playing nicely together? Yeah, Bosch plugs and h ...
