  1. For complete app access, it's around $80 on Amazon and $40 on Bimmerlink.

  4. In my opinion, it must be obd2. In a way, or another. For example, bimmerlink. A bimmlink app and an obd2 dongle are at my disposal. In addition, you can verify sensor data and cell voltage by resetting all services.
  5. I have also done that. It is necessary to reset the service counter after replacing the sensors in order to inform the vehicle that they were replaced. All the way up until then, it will assume that you still require new brakes. Personally, I reset all of that using bimmer code.
  6. Something new. Under the vacuum pump, on the front left side (when looking from the front), is where you can find the shutter valve/anti-shudder valve. It looks like a throttle valve, but CDIs don't actually have any. Its sole purpose is to create a vacuum when the engine is turned off (thus eliminating the thump heard on older diesels) and, on occasion, to partially close (again, to aid EGR flow), so that the engine does not overheat. The derv engine's speed is mostly unrestricted because the only controls are the duration and pressure of the injectors, not a throttle. A spray hole would be created by the easily detachable air intake temperature sensor located on the rear of the device.
  7. Yes, you could remove it at the shutter valve (also known as an anti-shudder valve or throttle valve) and spray it in there from the top of the engine compartment. Another option is to use the hole behind the shutter valve, just below it, or the one through which the air intake temperature sensor sits. It's still quite a distance to the intake, but that's the closest easy point.
  8. For my curiosity's sake, why were they replacing instead of simply cleaning? It is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to spray into the intake while avoiding the turbo or intercooler. In any case, you'll need to spray the carbon buildup directly with most of those sprays for them to work. The most effective solution would be to install an oil catch can between the PCV and the turbo intake. This will prevent the oil from leaking into the intakes and will ensure that the PCV runs smoothly.
  9. They are both 271 Evo engines. While both engines have the same cubic capacity, the C180's higher compression ratio could cause it to overheat when subjected to the fuelling demands of the C250CGI ECU.

  11. Is the vehicle still consuming a 1 amp draw while in a deep sleep state? I continue to receive the “C1D00 EPB switch + additional fault short to ground body control module” during the Forscan BCM test, which leads me to suspect the BCM. I have now deactivated the stop/start feature in Forscan, so it is no longer an annoyance to me! Salutations
  12. Greetings everyone. Is there anyone who can inform me if or where I might locate a circuit diagram for a body control module? Is this applicable to my 2015 Mk5 1.5 Ecoboost Mondeo? Salutations
