But first we have a couple cars to diagnose along the way ;)
Owner of the 2009 BUTCHERED BMW 328xi asked me to stop by for a follow-up diag after he sent out the busted ECM DME to get "refurbished"... Why is the BMW still a crank no-start??

Sometimes the worst enemy to a car is the car's owner.
"Labor rate $99/hr" ---- "Labor rate if you tried first $200/hr"
You need to fire that customer.
You have the patience of a saint dealing with things like this !
Well at least the gas tank was in the right place.. gives you a staring point anway.
Hard to overestimate the value of AllData. When I did the AC in my Jeep XJ, I paid the $20 and got the month of AllData for that vehicle. The wiring problem turned out to be a faulty component that just had to be bypassed since it was unavailable but figuring that out was a lot easier with the right wiring diagrams and descriptions of how things worked. Good luck with the BMW.
there you go , cust. knows a relative or a guy that knows it all and is cheap, they know better than the engineers at the OEM.saved him a lot!
My complements Ivan. I would have told the car owner that I don't fix totally screwed up repairs by owner. Your patience is amazing.
After seeing the hack job done on the fuel pump, wouldn't be surprised that FLAG-SHIP 1 sent back a working ECM to customer of the BMW. FLAG-SHIP 1 just took the high road as they were dealing with PHAD
Sending electronics back for repair is always questionable. Especially for intermittent issues. On communications electronics we started marking the boards in a way to see if we got the same unit back and if anything was changed. I think it's just a process of connecting the unit to a test rig and running series of tests. Lot's of intermittent issues can make it by the test, especially if the unit is tested cold.
Broke My Wallet and Destroy It Yourself in perfect harmony. Customer needs a serious talking to lol!
Who ever worked on the fuel pump might be related to a friend of mine. I feel your pain my friend. This guy has all the snap-on tools but zero ability. I told him he should lock the snap-on box up and throw the keys away. He asked why. I told him he has no business touching them. Stay Well my friend.
Nothing worse than trying to put other people's mistakes right....our job is hard enough thank you 😉😀
looks like a great modern version of the game Operation! Thanks for the video Ivan
BMW owner... "now it's time for another round of Stump Ivan".
No doubt ivan you will make it run ..thats what you always do no matter what..good luck
Wow and I thought flagship was better than that! Good job for figuring the pump mess! Have a great triip!!!
So you have a 6 year old master mechanic in America, too? I couldn't do what you do, I'd throw the towel in after 5 minutes. Well done! 👍
Very good work 👏 🙌
Thanks for making my day!
