E90 BMW Leak Detection Pump DIY

- In this video I show you how to change our your DMTL or fuel vapor leak detection pump on your E90 BMW. I am specifically working on my 2008 BMW 335i in this video.
The leak detection pump is bolted to the charcoal canister on the driver side rear of the car.
This is a relatively easy job and should take you about 30 minutes total.
I installed a Dorman 310-601 aftermarket pump.
You can also install a Bosch pump, OEM part number 16137193479.
You can purchase that here and it would support the channel:

Dealer said $600 for parts and labor. I saw this video as I was debating if I want to pay that much. It looks easy enough, I bought the part and will replace it myself. Thank you for posting this. You save a lot of people money!
Awesome, yeah that's why I do this. I hope my videos inspire people to tackle some of these jobs themselves or even just to help inform people so they can refer to them at independent shops etc.
Great DIY camera work! This really helped me out a lot. I recently started experiencing a persistent P2400 fault. Turned out the electrical cable connecting to the DMTL pump was chaffing on the protective housing - it ate right through one of the wires. Easy repair with some solder sleeves and after completing a drive cycle all looks good. It's tight, but I was able to do the repair without jacking up the car. Cheers.
The PCV lines were kicking my asss.
Excellent video. This got me through replacement of the DMTL pump on my 2008 128i (E88). Many thanks!
You sir have GREAT taste in vehicles... I also currently DD an '08 335i. Sadly I've sold all of my e30's though. Would LOVE to have a great looking e30 M3 like yours beside my 335. Thanks for the great video! Saved me about $200.
Great video. I'm going to change mine now. I was distracted by the M3 in the background so I had to get over its beauty and watch the video again. Wish me luck on the change.
Awesome video! You made this job super helpful. I bought the part gently used off eBay for $65. Saved me over $550.
Love your socks & flip flops combination.
Great video, as always. Thanks for sharing.
When putting back these pipes so they click, would it help to maybe put some grease on the O ring, so it goes easy?
Thank You
Great step-by-step visual and verbal instructions
Great video man thankyou :I You are extremely knowledgeable and your videos are very informative and detailed. I have the same messages, i will check the condition of my wiring harness as heard this can also be the problem and not actual pump. If that's all good ill order the pump and attempt to install myself
Thank you for the video! Saved myself over 400$!
Love the m3 in the back
Thanks for the video. This was so simple I just did it myself
Excellent video and articulation! Great job one handed, gives me confidence I can do it, lol. Thanks for contributing, saves me cash and time!
Same car model (mines silver), same jack, same part... GREAT video!
Ten8yp how did it driver after ??
2b3d code thrown on my mhd. Order of checking issues: new fuel cap, dtml wire harness check and clean, change dtml, (code still thrown) check lpfp and fuel regulator.
That’s a bad ass gauge cluster, how did you ended up getting that modded or was that aftermarket?
I did this job tonight on my daughter's 2011 328i. Only problem I ran into the three screws holding on the pump were extremely rusted. No way of getting them off other than drilling them out. I have 174,000 miles on the clock. Not sure if the pump was ever changed before. I had to find new screws to fit. Everything else was straight forward,! thanks
Where is the dmtl located at passenger backside?
Thanks! This was very helpful. Doing this fix on Saturday.
THANK YOU BROTHER! JUST REPLACED, YOU MADE MY WEEK!
I have same code e92. I did a fuel pump upgrade to a bucketles fuel pump and forgot plug in one of the dmtl lines and left it in the the tank. After that I got code p1447. I fixed the line and replaced the dmtl pump and the charcoal canister and still keep getting p1447 can there be any other causes for that code?
Will this or the charcoal canister cause a leak or the gas pump clicking before full? I'm having similar problems and am about to try and replace the fuel pressure regulator. Should I try replacing this first?
I would like to know if this will solve the gas pump issue as well. Mine clicks off very early as well
@@fazman6218 did you fix your problem? I’m having same issues with my car aswell gets half tank
I guess it is canister from what I could see that is causing clicking at gas pump.
A shop quoted me 900$ DIY TIME 👍🏾
Great video. I hope someone is still watching this thread. I recently got the close gas cap warning followed by the SES light with code 2A15. I changed my gas cap, reset the code and it came back after a few miles. So I changed the DMTL pump, reset the code and drove a few miles.....it came back again. Question is, what does everyone suggest I do next ? Looking at the lines there are two blue lines that go through to the rear wheel well. One is larger than the other and goes to a smaller canister bolted to the wheel well behind the splash cover. The other is much smaller and looks like it heads up to the filler....maybe. I read that sometimes they chafe on the point where they enter the wheel well area but I don't see any damage to them. There are other lines that are black, not sure where they go. I pulled the rear seat out and there is a white hose attached to one of the fuel tank caps. I just dont want to throw money in parts at it....nor do I want BMW to charge me $1000 to fix it. Any ideas follks ?
You eventually get it? Could be your actual fuel lines or pump has a leak.
@@becausereasons41 not yet, I kinda gave up for now. I'm going to take it to a local guy I know that has a smoke tester
@@Mandinka711 u ever figure it out?
@@ysljay9061 I didn't.... I'm going to take it to a local guy where I live. Got another invisible coolant leak now as well. Doesn't leak when you're watching then dumps a puddle when you're not.
Anyway, he can fix both lol
@@Mandinka711Did you ever get your car over to your local guy? What did he figure out?
Thank you, great instructional video. I just ordered one, can't wait to install it. Should be a piece of cake thanks to you.
Great DIY and explanations
Great video my friend
I just changed that particular part and still the engine service soon appears in the cluster warning lights any suggestions will appreciate it
I got the same code p1434, is this the same for a e92 335i coupe?
Thanks for this Review helps very much! One question, for what is this pump?
thanks for posting
Nice video, much appreciated.
Did your pump make noise before you replaced it? I am getting a noise from the right rear of my 06’ E83 X3 after I shut the engine off. It sounds like something is running for a minute or two after shutdown? Does this indicate the pump is bad or is this normal operation? I note that I am not getting any dash lights or scanned codes. Thx. Very nice video BTW!
add lubricant to the rubber gaskets so it goes in easily...
What lubricant is best? Some kind of grease or it has to be something special? I mean, I can put olive oil.
Is it necessary to replace?? My car is not starting at all after a fill up and sitting overnight. Will releasing the hoses make my fuel pressure return??
Purge valve is bad.
I just change my lpfp after I changed it I notice every time put some gas it stop itself. So when I scan code give me 2A17 DMTL system fault. The BMW Leak Detection Pump Will fix my problem?
Thanks in advance
Hello, I'd say it's possible if the purge solenoid is stuck and they tank can't vent. It's worth trying to replace it to see if it helps given you have a code anyway. They eventually fail in one way or another.
Helped a lot!
Awesome, thanks!
Thanks
thx nice video, i am waiting for the part. silly question perhaps, but what type of grease for this application ...is it just plain white lithium grease? and did you erase the error code or will it go away on its own?
your fruit of the loom socks hahaha..thanks for the vid. about to do this myself.
Excellent
That's an EVO3 M3 E30 near your E90? :D
I had the codes
P2401 , P2419,P1429 that pointed towards this Evap Canister being faulty but after rrplacement of the DMTL and characoal canister I still have the codes. The check engine comes back after a drive. Anyone have any help please?
What was the fix
Currently experiencing some leakage going to the floor when I'm about 3/4 full tank and it also doesn't allow me to fill tank all the way when I pump. I recently installed a stage 2 pump but it had the issue of never being able to fill completely since I got the 08 e92.
U fix it ?
Hey man did you ever resolve the issue? I am having similar symptoms.
@@n3on170 yeah, it ended up being hair line crack on the lpfp hat 😑 but still doing that thing at the pump 💁♂️
Awesome video: thanks
Bmw 2011 128i convertible - 86k miles - got service engine soon light - The code was: 0x002B DMTL, system fault. The DMTL pump/module is what needs to be replaced. It detects leaks in the fuel system. For now i requested dealer to reset since want to see whether it will come back before i pay $680 to replace the DMTL pump module.
Any suggestions? Please advice.Thanks.
I have a code p1449, diagnostic module tank leakage pump current too high,, so I looked at the fuel pump on the left side driver side pulled it down and started the car I held the motor to the canister and I don't feel any vibration no humming sound shouldn't there be one? I'm thinking maybe the motor went bad the one attached to the canister? No smell of gas, but this code comes up with a check engine light when I step on the gas hard. Then I'll get an engine failure warning reduced power but the car runs fine! I have a 2009 BMW 335i coupe, any help would be appreciated thank you!!
Great video sir 👍🏾👍🏾💪🏾💪🏾!
Great video thanks for your help it worked like a champ.
What's symptoms??
i changed mine recently but the code is still there any idea what it could be?
E93 won’t take gas, pump stops after a gallon or so only code pump plausibility you know what it could be?
Vert good video, and helpful. One thing is there a link you can provide to get a scanner like yours. Thanks in advanced.
I need help is this the same as code 2b28? I have a 2010 n54 335i
Can a bad DMTL pump also cause a small evap leak code?
Great video..just did mines
could u tell me what p0442 is I change the fuel emission line and the purge valve I got bmw 328i 2009
Do you know where the BMW Leak Detection Pump Filter goes?
I have a fuel leak and the leak detector didnt throw a code. I see residual fuel coming from the front of the left side fuel tank (driver side) ... replacing fuel system with Fuel-It stage 2 system and fuel filter regulator kit. replacing the fuel vapor leak detector pump anyway
Frankie Diesi did this work? I’ve got a fuel drip on my e92 M3 near the front of my left rear wheel, just replaced the sending unit and didn’t immediately start dripping but within 15 miles it began dripping slightly more than it was before but only when running. At a total loss for next steps but your experience would help a lot! Thanks in advance
Will this make the car vibrate when stopped at a red light
I've been getting a dmtl code 2b3d on my e92. Noticed when I get gas its not letting me put more than a few gallons. Tried manually adding more fuel and saw a massive leak coming from the passenger rear. I got home and pulled the lining out and it appears to leak from the canister with the filter inside on the passenger side... any ideas? Thanks!
Hussar the lpfp you mean?
how did you get it fixed?
Did you fix the issue ??
@@Mdot401 I did! Turned out that when I put in a new fuel pressure regulator, there was a hose on top of the fuel pump cap or bucket that I didn't properly connect. The common issue seems to be fuel vent breather valve though
@@micraw714 what side is that on the back drive side or the back passenger side
We have the same car same year how is your lights white on your speedometer?
Excellent job....
Could this part failing cause the car to not start?
6 months late but no. I believe it has 0 performance on the car
How do you replace the related fillter
In the beginning of the video you said the pump was on the passenger side but you worked on the drivers side???
I was referring to the regular E90 models, the N54 and S65 powered models have it on the drivers side.
Is there only 1 leak detection pump in bmw e90?
Dude, next steps:
Amazon links to the part(s) and/or pieces. Affiliate marketing..Click funnel... Then identify the hottest sellers and keep the register ringing.
IF by the grace of God you would want me to do a rev share with you I'm in! Reply below :) Love your work!
What about the 2B3A
I’m getting code 2B3B DMe DMTL system fault been trying to get evap to go to ready but when it does I get tht code u think I’m having same issues where I have to get a new pump and canister?
I changed mine on a 2011 328i im not smelling fuel anymore but the check engine light won’t go away any suggestions ??
Did you have a funny smell coming from car? You change this same part ?
Is this on cars that have no charcoal filter? Ie Asian and European cars.
What kind of grease should I use?
I get the code for this but no SES light ??
I installed the pump and I'm still having the same problem code and I cant pass emissions. Any idea on what the problem could be?
Maybe do a smoke test on the system to see if you have a cracked line somewhere.
How did the fuel efficiency seem after ?
What was the code you were getting? Im getting p240a and p0440 both related to emission leak. Woukd appreciate your reply... thank you!
Sorry I don't remember off the top of my head, I must have mentioned it somewhere in the video but it was an evap leak code.
I have no codes, car will long crank and not turnover
How do you fix the exhaust flap rattle? I unplug the vacuum hose to leave the flap open but is the another legit way to resolve it?
Haven't looked into it actually.
Leaving the vacuum hose unplugged will result in a vacuum leak. I would suggest plugging it back into the port and welding the flap open.
Just put a new 1 on $147 did nothing! code dector said that's what it was waste of $$
I don’t normally trust people who wear socks with thong sandals but when I do they have an E30M3.
What kind of grease are you using?
I just used some dielectric grease I had kicking around.
Oh, my two codes are P01441 & P01447
I keep getting p1449 code... I can’t seem to find out why.
did you find out why?
Any update ?
Nope sold that pos as soon as I could 😂
@@destapa96 LMAOOOO
@@destapa96 could you not figure out what was wrong ? With the code P1449?
who wears socks with sandals
Good stuff

Use power tools! not a caveman operation OLD MERORYS hurt my brain
What are some benefits for this job
408DJREMIX Honestly the only benefit is not having a check engine light on. It's purely for emissions purposes. So if you get a code for the DMTL pump then you change it. Otherwise I wouldn't bother.
Vehicular DIY can it cause a rough idle? I have the check engine light due to the dmtl pump but also a rough idle, im changing my valve cover hopefully that fixes it as well
🤣the sanctions are working say the truth this war is a business for some countries.
