N55 puking tons of Codes at me...
Hey guys!
So the issue with the car is it starts immediately but shuts down just as quick...takes about 5 to 10 starts to get it running. Took a vid to show you guys the problem. https://www.flickr.com/photos/200568...eposted-public So after my last fix I was able to get a code reader(Blue Driver). I spewed a ton of codes out. Also my battery is only 6 months old but I dont drive this car often so I had to put it on a trickle charger so it wouldn't die. (Because it did when I went to Japan) A lot of the codes say low voltage but from what I found that could mean no power at all. Battery is currently fully charged and no corrosion on ground terminals anywhere. Here are the codes and let me know what you guys think? Im currently looking them up and checking part prices lol. Thanks again for everything thus far guys! |

Just to be clear you have done it (or will do it) - let the battery charge a bit and be sure it's 100%. Then clear everything. Lastly give it a drive and see which ones come back. Only focus on those.
Also look all that stuff up, some could be stupid crap you don't care at all about. |

No biggie. It's pretty standard advice really, clear the codes and then see what comes back. For us the add-on is being sure the battery is good. I guess that could be across the BMW lineup but definitely applies to us.

I was finally able to take her out and drive her tonight after I cleared all the codes on a 100% battery. Unfortunately nothing went away and also it ran on reduced power. The reduction in power was bad lol. felt like 50 to 80 hp...
Anyway I guess Ill be starting on these codes and figure out the most logical one to start on first. Another thing... it seems like if a few of these codes were fixed it would wrap up a few other things or codes as well, but I could be wrong. I just don't see or understand how so many things can go wrong with the car after sitting for a short period of time with only 60k miles. Ill start with a few of the sensor codes first and go from there, unless anyone has better advice Let me know what you guys think! |

Bummer. I see a lot of throttle position sensor / pedal position errors, and could imagine that'd make it feel down on power but not sure how that would keep it from starting up OK. You might want to actually take it in if you can make it somewhere. Hopefully someone on the forum has seen this before and knows more.

This looks like a wiring fault since almost everything indicates a short or low voltage.
Did you take a glance through the engine bay to see if there were any wires that looked out of place, maybe chewed up by some rodents or animals? Before purchasing any parts I’d go around and check that each one of your components is getting sufficient power in and ground with a simple circuit light tester. I suspect this will give you an idea as to where to start. |
