Hi all

have a quick question regarding my dads xDrvie30D 2014.

So i've driven the car since he bought it second hand about 5 years ago, and the car used to pull very hard.

been driving it the last 2 days, and there is no power at all. Comfort mode/sport mode... don't feel anything. no CEL or smoke or any odd sounds.

Anybody experience this at all ?
i'm assuming it needs a good clean on intake mandifold or what not ?

current km is 110XXXkm...so not that crazy high ?


cheers all !

Scan with a good code reader preferably ISTA. Check the turbo/intercooler/vacum hoses haven't got leaks or come off. Lastly check the dipstick for oil

How doe she sound when you rev her at idle?

cheers for the reply

reving on idle is very smooth - no odd sounds or vibrations.

plenty of oil in her

no engine light on, so didn't think of doing a scan.

i'll do it later tonight with bimmer tool...just really odd

its like as if the turbo is not spooling..or lack of

If you could look at MAF expected v actual and boost request v actual that would be useful. Egr position as well.
