Hi, I need you advise and help, please. I have 2015 328i, it does not want to crank or start, I got new AGM battery and as I remember the previous owner changed the starter but I am not sure when. I got the following codes 8040B5 and 80444D and I am not sure what do now, thanks.
Thank you so much for this Chanel and all the time and effort being put in to help everyone out. I was able to replace my faulty crank sensor with the help of your videos. A note to everyone else out there. Get quality replacements parts, especially when it comes to sensors or ignition components. I made the mistake of buying a crank sensor from a generic parts store and actually paying double the cost of OEM, only to realize it was not compatible. It Cost me time and money to do the job all over again. Again, thank you gentlemen for your help and this Chanel. Big hello from a Ukrainian/American🙏
Привет а как вы проверили датчик коленвала тоесть тест на правильную работу у меня тоже есть проблемка у меня е34 м50б25 1 ванос на боше подскажите пожалуйста
Hi Alex, Im sorry I will write in English. My E90 was throwing a code for the crank sensor and would occasionally not start or had s very long crank, so I replaced the crank sensor which I got from a local parts store, it fixed the no start issue, but as soon as I would drive the car it would misfire and the same code returned. I then bought an OEM sensor, it was actually half the cost!! Putting the OEM sensor and the one from parts store next to each other you could see a slight hight difference and also the OEM sensor felt different on the magnetic side.. I Put the OEM sensor in, cleared the check engine light and my E90 runs like new.@@aleksandralexander6461 Hope this helps.

It applies to all cars. I thought the breather valve is out of whack, so I cleaned the breather. Few months later, now my car won't start. The symptoms are real. Now ordered my sensor. And dang it is pricey!
Tell me about it bro I’m like 2k deep in repairs and I’ve only owned mine for 3 years lololol. “The engine is reliable, you just have to replace everything that goes to the engine first”

Hi I have a bmw n52 motor and have a code p0365 camshaft position sensor bank 1 and I change the sensor new and the car didn’t start so I went with bad one and the car started when I give gas it starts shaking like if it’s a coil bad so sometimes it shut off or when I used ac it shuts down the thing is I shut off car and it normal goes away but still with the same code need help
Still have still on when I try to start the button nothing happen except you hear click noise on stater or something. Do u think thats starter goes bad?

Will a bad crankshaft sensor cause hard start? Iv changed a fuel/spark related things. My car has to crank multiple times then it gets a rough idle then it idles fine after a while.
I have a question that code is associated with leak detection pump too? Because i have toe same code I replaced the gas cap but the code came back. Nowi bought the leak detection pump I didn’t install yet but I wanna be more clear if is this this connection or leak detention pump. Thanks my code is 2A16
Hello, I have some symptoms in my car and the code I get says “camshaft retarded when cold, the car sounds great when starting, but after a while it starts to sound like rubbing between metal (as if it were the chain). ) but if I disconnect the valvetronic the sound decreases, I have already synchronized the valvetronic with an Autel computer, but the symptoms continue to appear, I appreciate any help, some tell me it is the chain and others say it could be the sensors that they go to the front in the engine
Please someone help with a suggestion . I have the code P0705 A Circuit Gear sign and battery light on . The car can start in all Positions P,R,D,N .and when it starts it doesnt show which gear the car on the dashboard. instead I get transmision sign with the exclamation mark in Orange and this is when I can drive the car almost normally and the car can go reverse and from second gear and up but with no first gear and parking sensors are not beeping nor reverse lights working .but if I dont see the transmision fault sign, the car go only in first gear up 20km ph and doest change to second gear and up and no reverse . I changed the transmission range sensor and bought a new battery and tested alternator with a specialist and said its fine which leaves me frustrated . The car is BMW e46 325i / 2001
I just replaced my dads crankshaft sensor and the ignition coil and it still wont fire over, just cranks and cranks ... fuel pump primes like it should ... i dont know what else to do
When I was working on mine, I forgot to plug the fuel rail power back in and it did that. I have a e90 but there’s a big plastic wiring harness thing next to the injectors and this powers the injectors, it should snap into each injector
@@ACommenterOnRUclips there’s a ground wire that goes to the frame of the car to the coil wiring harness, maybe check that, other than that Idk bc even if one coil wasn’t working the car would still turn on it just wouldn’t run right
@@krispytoast8804 there is only 1 coil that feeds power to the distributor. That coil is not sending spark to the distributor. They said if that coil does not send spark, then to check the crank sensor and the cam sensor, the crank sensor was replaced, this jeep does not have a cam sensor.
I have a 06 bmw 325i that cranks but won't start. after 4 or 5 times it turns on. then it turns on as if nothing happened. then in the morning when I get up. it comes back and does the same problem. And the gas is gone fast. Crazy.
My bmw e46 320d automatic cluster gadget stuck and car not starting not crank not both new cluster the gadget works but car not starting please help thanks
what if N47 starts ok, then for no reason randomly stalls? Then starts ok, o some times after stalling starts from 3 or 4 time? Sometimes its all good. Sometimes it tries to stall but then after pressing acc pedal goes back
I have a 2006 E90 or 325i. Here's my situation, the Red Gear Symbol shows on my cluster display but I have no Check Engine light. Car starts easily but once in drive I have no power from a complete stop, and the car won't go past 3000 rpms. Once I get to a speed higher then 35mph I still don't have full acceleration power and I can't shift into Drive Sport but I can still get up to speeds above 120. Any experienced BMW owners who have the time to bless me with some insight it would be greatly appreciated. I'm a first time BMW owner. Who has learned very quickly after rebuilding my entire front end that wrong parts and or components can easily be purchased without really needing them. I don't want to over think as well as overspend on a issue without knowing as much as I can beforehand. Thanks for your time. Looking forward to reading all suggestions.
BMW Symptoms 2011 328i Crank, No start. Replaced battery, and starter, because it would not crank. It cranks now, but will not start. Unplugged IBS, still will not start. Unplugged Mass Airflow sensor, still will not start. Used scanner to operate fuel pump. Pump runs, and fuel rail pressure after cranking reads 73 psi, and holds. Checked for 15 minutes, still held to 70 psi. Used scan tool to activate all six injectors, I can hear them activate when turned on. Checked spark on number one ignition coil, spark is there. One code stored, CDA7 Message error (status, reverse gear, 0x3B0), DME receiver, FRM/LM transmitter. I erased the code, it comes back when scanned, most of the time. Tried spraying starter fluid into the throttle body, still wouldn’t start. Also, I can only crank the engine 5 or six times, and the battery gets low. The headlights always come on as soon as I turn the ignition on, even though they are turned the switch is in the off (0) position. I leave the charger connected. I have not changed any sensors yet, but was think about checking the crankshaft sensor next. Any help would be appreciated.
Mine is idling rough. Generally lacking in power. Terrible mpg. Hopefully that's the problem. Can I say buying a cheap bmw alpina b3 is nothing but expense... bitter/sweet
I used a bad Chinese sensor I imagine that’s why I’m getting bad misfire after 4 k rom changed plugs cleaned fuel rail cleaned coils and car idles good and drives good under 4k rpm soon as I get it above all cylinders misfire.
Hopefully someone sees this.. I have a 2004 BMW 325ci.. long story short it was sitting for a year so probably doesn't help but. After I got it started just needed simple jump and starts up every time now. Now here's the problem I'm confused about. When I first start it.. it runs really rough (no light) if I give it a little gas and keep it at around 1500-1800rpm for a min or 2 then it gets better. Once I start driving it drives just fine and accelerated just fine. Come to a stop sign idles fine for 5 seconds then gets rough again. The last few days I've been driving just to work it's good about 3/4 of the way there and then it stalls out on me randomly. (5 speed manual) and even if I take it out of gear and coast up to a light and slowly braking it can stall out on me. Starts right up every time.. then it seems like it's almost in limp mode again.. start driving and slowly accelerating then you feel it get power back and drives just fine again. Been getting worse and worse. I was a mechanic for 7 years before switching careers and this is just baffling me. Almost feels like a misfire or a huge vacuum leak. But no light. Now the light just turned on. Gotta get a scanner.
You talking crap. The crankshaft sensor is underneath the starter and the starter is underneath the intake manifold. Not the top of the engine. You thinking camshaft sensors. But you can get to the crankshaft sensor from under the car. You remove the gravel plate and the reinforcement plate. Then you can get to it. This is actually the BMW prescribed method of replacing the crankshaft sensor. However, if you do it from below you are required to replace the 8 x 16mm reinforcement plate screws and they are not cheap. Maybe that is why people try to do it another way.
I have a '08 328xi Coupe. When I try to start the car, it will crank and not start, and sometime it will start and die after 2-3 seconds. On my scanner it's showing misfire cylinder 3 and 4. I replaced both ignition coils for cylinder 3 and 4, and nothing has changed. Could it be the crank shaft sensor? Also, would it show on the scanner wether the crank shaft sensor is faulty? Thank you! Love your channel.
Yes brother most likely the crankshaft position sensor. This sensor communicates with DME ECU And if its faulty or worn it won't tell the computer the correct Info. If the magnet in the sensor is bad car will automatically shut down within 2-5 seconds after start. I did this on my uncles bmw m3 , replaced sensor and coded it with actual bmw software. If done incorrectly the car won't know what's going on. Use Scanner with bmw software or NCS EXPERT ON a windows computer. The software i use is in German so yeah. U can translate but be very careful. Don't reset or move anything else than clearing the fault. The reason I use NCS is because I have learned German for more than 1 year now and im always on it so I know what it means. Just do it if you know what your doing if not leave it to the experts such as me or any tech that is certified.
My car always doesnt start while being hot. It always turns on when its cold. Meanwhile i go to the store after work, come back to the car and it doenst start. Need a solid 15-30 min to wait to get it started. Anyone can advise me about this problem?

Hopefully someone sees this.. I have a 2004 BMW 325ci.. long story short it was sitting for a year so probably doesn't help but. After I got it started just needed simple jump and starts up every time now. Now here's the problem I'm confused about. When I first start it.. it runs really rough (no light) if I give it a little gas and keep it at around 1500-1800rpm for a min or 2 then it gets better. Once I start driving it drives just fine and accelerated just fine. Come to a stop sign idles fine for 5 seconds then gets rough again. The last few days I've been driving just to work it's good about 3/4 of the way there and then it stalls out on me randomly. (5 speed manual) and even if I take it out of gear and coast up to a light and slowly braking it can stall out on me. Starts right up every time.. then it seems like it's almost in limp mode again.. start driving and slowly accelerating then you feel it get power back and drives just fine again. Been getting worse and worse. I was a mechanic for 7 years before switching careers and this is just baffling me. Almost feels like a misfire or a huge vacuum leak. But no light. Now the light just turned on. Gotta get a scanner.
MHMMMM , GREAT EXPLANATION ! you have a vacuum leak !! find a good mechanic !
Guys where is he from guys, Brazil guys?

You didn’t have to remove the intake manifold next time to from your oil pan
How the fuck u supposed to fix this from under the sensor is on top the engine bro xD
You talking crap. The crankshaft sensor is underneath the starter and the starter is underneath the intake manifold. Not the top of the engine. You thinking camshaft sensors. But you can get to the crankshaft sensor from under the car. You remove the gravel plate and the reinforcement plate. Then you can get to it. This is actually the BMW prescribed method of replacing the crankshaft sensor. However, if you do it from below you are required to replace the 8 x 16mm reinforcement plate screws and they are not cheap. Maybe that is why people try to do it another way.
I have a '08 328xi Coupe. When I try to start the car, it will crank and not start, and sometime it will start and die after 2-3 seconds. On my scanner it's showing misfire cylinder 3 and 4. I replaced both ignition coils for cylinder 3 and 4, and nothing has changed. Could it be the crank shaft sensor? Also, would it show on the scanner wether the crank shaft sensor is faulty? Thank you! Love your channel.
This is something I’d like to know. Hopefully someone responds!
Yes brother most likely the crankshaft position sensor. This sensor communicates with DME ECU And if its faulty or worn it won't tell the computer the correct Info. If the magnet in the sensor is bad car will automatically shut down within 2-5 seconds after start. I did this on my uncles bmw m3 , replaced sensor and coded it with actual bmw software. If done incorrectly the car won't know what's going on. Use Scanner with bmw software or NCS EXPERT ON a windows computer. The software i use is in German so yeah. U can translate but be very careful. Don't reset or move anything else than clearing the fault. The reason I use NCS is because I have learned German for more than 1 year now and im always on it so I know what it means. Just do it if you know what your doing if not leave it to the experts such as me or any tech that is certified.
I just got this stupid issue that has cost me so much problems.
How can I message you?
