Re: Please Help with the EGR Fault Code!
At a certain juncture, the expenses associated with emissions-related repairs or replacements become prohibitive, rendering the removal of the DPF and EGR more appealing (until one incurs fines and must either reinstate the components or dispose of the vehicle). I anticipate that emissions testing w...

Re: Please Help with the EGR Fault Code!
I suspect the EGR is likely malfunctioning, however I am less certain regarding the DPF. The DPF appears to be regenerating normally, having successfully performed a regeneration within the last 5 kilometres. According to Bimmertool, the DPF contains 15.89g of soot and approximately 41.32g of ash. I...

Re: C55 oil: entertainment and activities
Avoid altering oil levels on a C55 M113 engine, since it consumes oil excessively. Crucially, there is no indicator of engine oil pressure on the display; none whatever. If it depletes, it detonates. I always get my oil and filters from MB Newcastle, since it is economical and easy. At 153,000 miles...

Re: E90 tick
From the bottom of the engine? Is it just when the temperature is warm?
