All Activity

Simply open the door, position your knee between it and the car body to prevent it from closing, and softly yet firmly apply pressure on the top corner. Repeat this process until the door is sufficiently aligned to be flush. You will be astonished by its ease of bending. It must be positioned slightly deeper than anticipated to achieve a minimal spring action and exert sufficient pressure against the seal to prevent weather infiltration.

Thank you very much. I will examine both of your points.

Thank you for your response. Negative, to the best of our knowledge. The door was closed in the photographs. I might need to bring it to the auto repair shop.

The door striker plate may require adjustment, or the door seal may be deteriorating.

The doors appear to be slightly warped. My 5 Series experienced this issue when I locked the keys inside, necessitating the RAC to forcibly gain entry. They pried that component to connect their wires and unlock the vehicle, requiring me to subsequently bend it back into place. Has anything of that nature occurred?...or even an attempted burglary? This presumes that the door was securely closed when the photograph was taken, of course.

Greetings, everyone. A few days ago, I entered my automobile and observed a damp area on the driver's seat. Discovered that water has been infiltrating through a minor crevice. What is the optimal method to address this issue? Any assistance would be welcomed. Thank you in advance.

I have not observed any difference upon deleting the flaps. You can verify the position using live data; but, it will not provide any information beyond what you already know. The flaps are soiled and deteriorated at the spindle passage, causing the motor to operate more without effectively advancing the flaps further. It may still be N47, as both can be eliminated. Input the last seven digits of the chassis number into Realoem to ascertain the engine installed.

I have heard and read that I can verify the flap turning position via BimmerLink. Is this correct? I possess the application.

I was informed that my BMW specialist could delete it, therefore I presume it is a B47. Does deletion exacerbate the situation in the long term? I have heard it can impact miles per gallon, fuel usage, and other factors. What is your perspective on this, my friend?

The wear in the flaps will permit the spindle to exceed its limits. The engine type for 2016 may be either N47 or B47. N47 may accommodate a new gasket since the flaps are included; B47 requires a new manifold. Alternatively, there is the option to eliminate flaps.

I apologise for any inadvertent duplicate messages; these are the correct items.

Additional codes

I presume it is either obstructed or adhering. Since I am not receiving any alerts on my dashboard, I am uncertain whether I should proceed with inaction. Will it damage my vehicle?

It depends on the code associated with the swirls, presuming it is a jammed fault code resulting from movement exceeding limits owing to flap wear. individual preference Some suggest installing a replacement manifold (the aftermarket offers reasonably priced options), while others advocate for the removal of the flaps. I personally remove them from my vehicles. Which engine do you possess?

Greetings, everyone. I connected the engine and cleared all errors, except for one persistent error related to the swirl flap. Although I have not encountered any issues, it concerns me, and I wish to prevent any problems in the future. What recommendations do you have for me? Is it capable of being cleaned? Is it advisable to delete it? Should I alter it? What are your thoughts? I would like real-time responses, as I am quite stressed at the moment.

I anticipate viewing your off-road videos and will vicariously engage in my off-road excursions through your content. It appears we have reached a new phase of life. Previous life encompassed rustic camping, SUVs, and four-wheel-drive trucks and campers. Currently, with the CX-90, the experience predominantly consists of smooth roads, clear visibility, and leisurely coffee-drinking excursions. Nonetheless, future camping excursions will probably occur, albeit with a more refined ambiance. I eagerly anticipate your vids once more. Exercise caution!

😊

It is pleasing to learn that it outperforms rival all-wheel drives. I have viewed a limited number of off-road vehicle videos on YouTube. I will attempt to create some off-road action videos independently for upload this month. I require a compressor from a friend for one day to modify tyre pressure for sand.

The CX-90 has performed admirably in numerous off-road real driving assessments relative to comparable all-wheel-drive SUVs. One must just refrain from entering very deep sand.

Avoid getting sand in your eyes! Congratulations on your new CX-90.
