Greetings, everyone.
Is there anybody here who is an expert in BMW vehicles?
I own a BMW E87 that came to me with a snapped chain. I proceeded to repair the engine, installing a new timing kit, and conducted a compression test, which revealed that all the cylinders are in good condition.Now arises the issue...the automobile cranks but fails to start.The engine is being started with a simple start spray and is functioning well. I am not receiving any error signals, the injectors are functioning well, and there is sufficient pressure in the fuel rail. However, despite these factors being in good condition, the engine fails to start.I am now lacking ideas. Could you provide any assistance? Thank you.
The BMW Series 1 E87 is a model of car.

What equipment are you using for fraudulent activities?
Did you utilise a locking kit to synchronise the timing?
Have you examined all the rockers and cam carrier for any signs of damage?
Have you properly primed the fuel system? If not properly primed, they may be rather difficult to start.

I have correctly adjusted the timing, ensuring that no damage has occurred to the rocker. The cam carrier is also in good condition.
I do a scan on it using four different diagnostic testers, namely INPA, Launch, Autel, and Delphi.I am currently lacking ideas.

What is the rail pressure throughout the process of starting the engine?

If my memory serves me correctly, the approximate value is about 500 bar.

If there is something that typically has a high pressure, it is normally about 300 bar to begin with.
If the vehicle has sufficient fuel pressure, proper timing, and all components are properly connected, I would recommend inspecting or replacing the camshaft sensor. This sensor is quite inexpensive and quick to repair, and it plays a crucial role in the starting process of diesel engines.

Tomorrow, I will attempt to test it. However, if the sensor is faulty, will it provide an error code? I do not possess any codes.

Occasionally, for unknown reasons, I have seen instances when they malfunction without providing any error codes, but they may also malfunction and provide an error code.
Has the injector harness been reattached correctly? It is important to note that confusion may arise if the plastic clips are absent, since it may not be immediately clear which plug corresponds to each injector.
