I own 2 BMW 335d's, one a 2010 and the other a 2011. I cannot keep these cars on the road. I have had "service engine soon" lights constantly. every code leads back to the emmissions system on these diesels. the latest IS an scr code that IS thousands of dollars to repair. BMW came out with a 10 year 120K mile extended warranty on the problem. they should have come out with a recall! I have had so many service engine lights I cannot afford to keep these cars on the road. these cars are worse than the VW diesels. the cars runs great, yet because of the service lights the rpairs are more costly than the cars are worth. I asked the murrieta BMW to ask bmwna to see if they would repair the scr active tank and was declined. I run the 2010 BMW many miles on the freeways so the scr active tank problem didn't show up until 186K miles. my 2011 BMW which isn't driven on freeways IS much had to have that tank replaced at 117K miles. when talking with the murrieta BMW service manager, he agreed when I told him these cars are crap. when the service manager had nothing good to say about the cars that speaks volumes. the blogs on the computer are loaded with complaints about the emission and def systems on these diesels. help, I truely have two cars right now that are worthless! the service managers advice was to turn them in to a dealership and get new(er) cars... really, pass the problem onto some other unsuspecting person when BMW knows these cars are more than a problem - unbelievable!

Blower motor recall: my car was taken in by BMW the beginning of february for the recall, or so I thought. The person I talked to in the service department alerted me that there was a recall and that my car was under it. A week of them having it goes by and the tech I talk to tells me that, no my car wasnt part of it and I had other issues that they quoted me for but couldnt directly say how they concluded they were faulty, his name was carlos up at classic BMW in willoughby hills, oh. I then tell the sa I refuse to talk to that tech because he doesnt seem to have proper knowledge on the car ID like to speak with someone else. The sa then confirms that my car IS under recall but they cant do anything because they dont know when they will be servicing or getting parts for it. I asked if they could check it to make sure its not a safety issue for mine and he tells me that because they wont know when they will get reimbursed for the labor just to look at it, that they couldnt do anything. They let me drive my car off the lot with an ses light on, not checking my recall, my blower motor fan doesnt even work properly. Not to mention that they told me my alternator and battery were bad and couldnt run diagnostics or anything on it. I basically drove off their lot thinking they didnt do any kind of inspection on the car. They wanted me to pay 2000 just to start on what was wrong. I just got this car 1 year ago and havent had anything wrong until this month where everything seems to be going wrong safety wise. Limp mode, limit driving, drive moderately, charge malfunction, sensors lighting like a christmas tree. I never received letters about a recall. Any reply would be much appreciated. thank you, jordan

While driving on a divided highway at 60 mph, I experienced a sudden loss of power steering assist. Steering became very stiff and there was a strong burnt rubber smell emanating from the engine compartment. I drove about 6 miles further and parked the car in my driveway. I also noticed the battery symbol illuminated with warning message 'charging malfunction.' I had the car towed to the BMW dealership for repairs. I believe this IS an identical issue that resulted in the BMW recall campaign no. 12V-550: engine belt idler pulley bolt for the X5. I am concerned because I believe the engine in my 335D IS identical to the diesel engine in the X5 recall and believe the 335D should be included in this recall. I will be contacting BMW corporate headquarters about my concern.

- 10150330"Discharged Battery: Energy Diagnosis Must Be Performed. The electrical system of BMW vehicles has been subject to an ongoing development process over the last few years. This has led to increased demands being placed on the battery. This document covers important information for the dealer on how to handle ""discharged battery"" complaints. A discharged battery can have various causes, most of which do not concern the battery itself. A failed battery is often the symptom and not the cause. A fully serviceable battery fails when an electrical component causes the battery to discharge; the battery becomes internally damaged and must be replaced. For more information, refer to www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-42B.htm For this reason, replacing the battery is not usually a permanent repair. The cause of the discharged battery must be analyzed in order to guarantee a proper repair. In order to properly repair the vehicle the first time in the workshop, it is very important that the diagnostic test plans are performed to completion with all results taken into to consideration. The procedure as outlined below contains information that will guide the technician into properly repairing the vehicle and getting paid for a warranty claim.

NOTE: The Basic SVS only includes voice recognition for phone functions. Error in the coding data of ISTA/P 2.48.x The voice recognition function is unintentionally deactivated.
- 10150104"Voluntary Emissions Recall Campaign 11E-A03: Check and/or Replace Emissions Monitoring Components. 1. Under certain driving conditions, the High-pressure (HP) EGR valve may become restricted with excessive soot. This restriction impedes the emissions performance of the HP EGR valve. This situation may lead to a Service Engine Soon lamp. An optimized EGR valve has been developed to limit this soot buildup. 2. The Selective Catalyst Reduction (SCR) mixer has also been improved to optimize the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) mixture when introduced into the exhaust system. Note: These Improved parts may have already been replaced during a previous service visit. It will be necessary to inspect these components first before replacement. 3. Reprogramming of the DDE is required to optimize these improved emissions monitoring components. AFFECTED VEHICLES This Emissions Recall Campaign involves X5d (E70) and 335d (E90) models that were produced from April 2009 to March 2011. In order to determine whether a specific vehicle has had this Emissions Recall Campaign completed or is affected by this Emissions Recall Campaign, first check if the ""Emissions Recall Campaign Completed"" label SD 92-435. This label is attached to the right (passenger) rear side of the hood in the engine compartment, close to the windshield. If the label is found, the campaign has already been performed. If the ""Emissions Recall Campaign Completed"" label is not present, it will be necessary to utilize the ""Service Menu"" of DCSnet (Dealer Communication System) or the Key Reader. Based on the response of the system, either proceed with the corrective action or take no further action."
