Newbie With 530D E60. And Problems Already...
 

Hey guys, I'm Gareth from Oxford. Drive an E60 BMW 530D. Just recently I've started to experience this noise (See Clip) @ 4min 35 Onwards. I have the exact same noise and not sure what it is ?


It's not happening regularly. Just now and again.... But I'm guessing it's something what's about to go or start of a problem


Here's the clip anyways. Excuse the Russian :)




Start watching from 4.35. It's like a Beat noise. Hoping some good techy on here can shed some light as to what it might be..


Much appreciated


Thanks Guys & Drive safe

Hi, welcome to scoobynet.

You would be far better posting on a BMW specific forum for advice. Good luck!

By the sound of that. I'd get the diagnostics kit hooked up and look at the smooth running/correction values for each injector.

Its surging/hunting at idle which isn't right, why its doing that, is a totally different ball game. Lots of faults can cause this.

Could be serious (as in a £hundreds), or could be a simple case of air getting sucked into the fuel system.
