2011 BMW X5 ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Our car get on fire from begin low on oil, we stopped on the side and went on another car to get oil at the gas station and Suddenly star on fire and our entire car truck burned. Luckily we were able to get out off the car on time.

I GOT AN ENGINE MALFUNCTION WARNING LIGHT ON MY 2011 BMW X5. I BROUGHT IT TO A MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME THE ISSUE IS THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP. THERE IS A RECALL FOR OTHER BMWS ALTHOUGH MINE IS NOT ON THE LIST. THE MECHANIC INDICATED THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR MY BMW AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY A RECALL.

RECENTLY PURCHASED 2011 BMW X5D. VEHICLE HAD 147, 068 MILES. AFTER DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED FOR LESS THAN 100 MILES FROM THE PURCHASE POINT, CEL CAME ON. THE SELLER WAS NOTIFIED ONLY TO TELL ME THAT A SENSOR READING NEEDED TO BE CHECKED AND THE VEHICLE WAS FINE TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE. A WEEK LATER A CERTIFIED BMW MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THE DIAGNOSTIC READING INDICATED NOX FAULT 4BFO. REDUCING AGENT ACTIVE TANK SENSOR SIGNAL 4BAC. THROTTLE VALVE ACTUATOR 4687. AS WELL AS 3 OTHER FAULTS RELATING TO THESE. ONE OF THESE SENSORS IS IN THE ACTIVE TANK AND COULD BE ASSOCIATED WITH AN MALFUNTION OF EMISSION SYSTEM AND EMISSION VIOLATIONS WHICH COULD RENDER THE MOTOR TO BE DISABLED. BMW CLAIMS THAT NO RECALL ON THE ISSUE HAS BEEN RECORDED. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE TO FIND THAT BMW HAS ANNOUNCED A RECALL ON THE SCR SYSTEM AFFECTING THE DEF MIXER AND THE EGR SYSTEM. ALL OF THESE ISSUES WILL RESULT IN EMISSIONS FAILURE AND SUBSEQUENT ENVIRONMENTAL HARM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 BMW X5. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE FAILED AND SMOKE EMITTED UNDER THE HOOD WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR INSPECTION WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL DIESEL HEATHER FAILED, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO OVERHEAT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V339000 (FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

I HAVE A 2011 BMW X5 335D WITH A LITTLE OVER 73K MILES. JUST RECENTLY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND AFTER A TRIP TO THE SHOP THE TECHS SAID IT WAS DUE TO A FAULTY DEF (DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID) SENSOR. UNFORTUNATELY THIS PART IS ~$930 AND IS ON A NATIONAL BACK ORDER. I ASKED IF THE PART IS A MANUFACTURE RECALL, BUT IT'S NOT. I'M MIND BOGGLED BECAUSE I HAD THE EGR REPLACED TWICE UNDER MANUFACTURE RECALL FREE OF CHARGE, BUT THIS DEF SENSOR ISN'T. HOW CAN THIS BE?.?.? THIS PART HAS TO DO WITH EMISSIONS STANDARDS AND DUE TO THE PART BEING UNAVAILABLE I'M FORCED TO DRIVE WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT UNTIL THE SHOP IS ABLE TO GET THE PART. WHO KNOWS WHAT FURTHER DAMAGE THIS WILL DO TO THE X5 AND WORST OFF, IF I DON'T GET THIS REPAIRED SOON, I'LL FAIL A SMOG CHECK AND CAN'T DRIVE MY CAR AT ALL. I'M HOPING THE NHTSA OR EPA FOLKS CAN VIEW THIS AS A MANUFACTURE RECALL ISSUE DUE TO A FAULTY PART AND TO MEET EPA STANDARDS....UPDATED 11/13/15 *BF UPDATED 1/4/2016*JS
