BMW Codes?

[jerseyboy]

Hi, I'm not sure what you mean by two problems. Is this because of the fact that I got those 3 codes (which you say are engine codes), plus the ABS lights? Two mechanics so far have told me that I really don't have a choice but to take it in. I'm thinking it's worth it after all, just pay the 110 bux or whatever it is to get a full diagnotic done and know exactly which codes I have and what the ABS problem is.

Also, no, the engine light does not stay on. When you say bulb, do you mean just any random bulb in the car?

Also, I guess it might be important to note that the engine light USED to come on a while back, and the mechanic did get the code for that, and told me the code was for the camshaft sensor, and he replaced that, and after 1 day of driving, the light turned off, so I'm guessing since the light went out on it's own, the computer fixed the problem or whatever, and it all checks out. But ABS obviously is separate.

I think I will have to take it in after all. I'm hoping it is just an ABS sensor, but the mechanic needs to know which one before he can spend time trying to fix it.

2 problems meaning an engine problem and an ABS problem. I was talking about the bulb for the check engine light in the dash. If the bulb is burnt out it won't come on even with these engine codes. Turn the key on and look at the dash. Do you see the check engine light? The ABS light is coming on for an ABS problem. Probably a wheel speed sensor.
Your TPS (throttle position sensor) is built into the throttle body module. That's why I said you are probably going to need a throttle body

Oh, that bulb. Yes, the engine light works fine (it was on before for the camshaft sensor, and once that was replaced, it turned off). So I know the engine check light does work. I'm guessing it's just an ABS problem I'm having now, since the engine light has not come on since then.

I will call BMW and take it in next week. Thanks for all the help/input guys, really appreciate it
