TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN

Reference Number(s): SI B11 22 16, Date of Issue:  April 2017
BMW: F30 (3 Series Sedan); F31 (3 Series Sports Wagon); F32 (4 Series Coupe); F33 (4 Series Convertible); F34 (3 Series GT); F36 (4 Series Gran Coupe); F48 (X1); G12 (7 Series); G30 (5 Series); Vehicles with B46, B48, or B58 engines produced up to 03/2017
GROUP: Engine

SITUATION

Check Control Message (CCM-212) states: "Engine Oil Pressure. Stop Carefully"

The following codes may be stored in the DME fault memory"

Also, the vehicle's mileage is very low (below 60 miles), the fault frequency shows only "one" occurrence; faults are not currently present and cannot be reproduced.

CAUSE

Unfavorable DME software application

PROCEDURE

For conditions that are similar to the situation described:

  1. Run diagnosis with ISTA/D and check DME fault memory.

    Are any of the fault codes, specified above, stored in the DME fault memory have a frequency 1, and are not reproducible/currently not present? 

    YES  - clear the fault memory, no more actions are needed. A parts exchange is not necessary and does not provide a solution.

    NO  - continue troubleshooting with ISTA.

    NOTE: As of integration level 17-03-500 (released 03/2017), a changed DME application software is going to prevent an erroneous oil pressure warning on low mileage vehicles.

    Always connect a BMW approved battery charger/power supply ( SI B04 23 10  ).
