So update to my issue, wasnt the exhaust clamps. MAFs had oil residue on them, cleaned them and idle got smooth, bot now i got a DTC fault and light on for lean mixture 118010. I'm thinking now either a leak, pre-cat O2s, or fuel tank vent valves on next to the intercoolers

I had problems that sound extremely similar to yours and I took it in several times. It would throw the Drivetrain Error msg, and eventually the car completely would stall out (had to tow it to the shop twice several weeks apart). I was told They finally found a leaking gasket between my engine and exhaust which was allowing exhaust out but air in so the sensors would read the mix as too rich and in result dump more fuel, causing the rough idle, etc. Replaced the gasket and so far have not had a recurrence or the issue (thankful for that)

Update for my issue,.. found out dealer installed wrong injectors. They installed EU6 injectors, my ECU was looking for EU5 injectors.
They reinstalled the right ones, faults gone.

Don't listen to HATERS
Quote:
-Don't listen to anyone that bad-mouths M cars or bmw. I had the same worries and i had thought about owning a bmw for years, yearsssss. But i never went past thinking about them because of all of the horror stories and negativity. Guys saying stuff like "id never own a bmw" "service and parts are so expensive" and the list goes on ... just pffft whatever guy. u ever bought oem toyota parts?! expensive and not even exciting -But just remember people that dont own bmw and have never owned a bmw "HATE" bmw. theres a stigma associated with the brand and it has nothing to do with the car's lack of quality or reliability "what's the difference between a bmw and a porcupine?" - porcupines have pricks on the outside" It has everything to do with bmw being expensive and good looking, mostly driven (in the past at least) by image conscious successful men and this is THEE formula for breeding hate. I'm not joking one bit when i say i live an area of the world with ppl that never, i mean never blow their horn at anyone even when blowing the horn can save a life!! but i can't even pass someone respectfully and normal speed without them blowing their horn at me. i mean 7 out of 10 passes i get a horn blown at me and if i do a spirited pass, wanna guess what happens? they f'n follow me! it has happened 3 times in 4 months and i barely drive it. one guy going 40 in a 60 backing up a line of traffic suddenly keeps pace with me after i blow his doors off for being so oblivious ..so i pull away and go down a dead end road im familiar with, turn around and wait. guess who is coming.. yep and i just wave at him while im sitting facing him. its like they want to know where u live so they can call a cop or vandalize u later. its rather scary how screwy some people are. ive never owned a gun but one is about to get bought and go in my glovebox. i get middle fingers alllll the time and for nothing. i get blocked in from merging and lane changes with blinker on allll the time. they see that blinker and theyll close that gap. thats why i just quit using them. ive never in my life experienced such aggression and hate against me in traffic and im a good driver.. a really good driver 20 years with not a single accident, ever. |

$40 plastic screw cap - Toyota
Quote:
my 2000 4runner, all the parts are now exactly double what they were 10 years ago bc i read old forum posts with prices from 10+ years ago before I went to buy my little cosmetic fixes looking for part numbers to make it faster and easier and you can't even get some OEM US spec parts for a limited- leather center console armrest - not available - I ordered one and they gave me the Latin American spec piece of crap rubber armrest they still make for hilux in 3rd worlds. so I had to go to an upholstery shop with my original and be like make this i paid $40 for a little thin plastic screw cap for the shifter shroud that was the size of a dime!! thats what u call bullsh*t |
