SUBJECT
Dual Mass Flywheel - Diagnosis and Inspection
MODEL
All models equipped with dual-mass flywheel, except Motorsport vehicles
INFORMATION
Prior to condemning the dual-mass flywheel as defective, the following three criteria have to be checked and evaluated:
1. Total rotational angle at no load condition (with applied torque less then 20 Nm)
2. Secondary plate longitudal axial play
3. Friction surface appearance changes due to thermal overload.
PROCEDURE
Refer to the attached "Dual-mass Flywheel Inspection" document for the complete inspection procedure.
The dual-mass flywheel replacement is justified only if one or more of the following criteria are met:
1. The total rotational free-play, measured at the flywheel gear ring, is equal or greater than 7 tooth gaps.
2. The secondary plate total axial bearing play, measured at outside diameter of the flywheel, is equal or greater than 5 mm.
3. A significant discoloration in the adjoining area outside the friction ring, or a severe ablation/erosion of the friction area, is present.
WARRANTY INFORMATION
For information only
Warranty claims may be denied:
^ If the diagnostic procedure outlined above is not followed when replacing a dual-mass flywheel.

F12 and F13 (6 Series) with N63 engine up to 5/2011 production
F25 (X3) with N52T and N55 engines up to 5/2011 production
SITUATION
The customer states that the Service Engine Soon lamp is illuminated. When diagnosed, one of the following faults is stored in the DME fault
memory:
^ DMTL Tank Leakage: Fine leak fault codes 3140, 321C, 2A15, 2B25, 190200, 190201
^ DMTL Tank Leakage: Super fine leak fault codes 3141, 321D, 2A16, 2A14, 2B28, 190300, 190302
CAUSE
Incorrectly installed fuel cap, evaporative system leakage or tank ventilation valve (TEV) that has been jammed open.
PROCEDURE
1. For all vehicles outlined above, perform the applicable test plan diagnosis module for the tank leak DMTL, and follow the attached diagnostic
fault tree for the fault(s) stored.
If a leakage is found, continue following the test plan to find the resolution. Refer to SI B16 01 07 for troubleshooting procedures, using the
VACUTEC(R) Smoke Machine 625-522B-BMW.
2. If no tank leakage is found using the applicable test plan and the attached diagnostic fault tree, then review the vehicle history. If this is the first
time for this complaint and the vehicle history does not indicate a single instance of the Service Engine Soon (SES) lamp illumination in the past for
any complaint, then:
Do not replace any parts and do not initiate a smoke test of the evaporative system.2010 BMW X6 (E71) V8-4.4L Turbo (N63)
BMW X6 (E71) V8-4.4L Turbo (N63)
Page 409
Confirm the operation of the fuel cap and advise the customer of the importance of installing the fuel cap properly to avoid tank leakage faults
(see attached diagnostic fault tree for additional customer information).
If the vehicle has had the Service Engine Soon lamp illuminated in the past and no tank leakage is currently present using the applicable test plan,
proceed to step 3.
3. Replace the tank ventilation valve only if the vehicle was produced prior to 5/2011 and the tank ventilation valve has not already been replaced
since 5/2011. Refer to REP 13 90 500 for replacement procedures.
[NEW] Note:
TeileClearing authorization is no longer required for the tank ventilation valve replacement procedure described in this bulletin.
PARTS INFORMATION FOR REPEAT VISIT ONLY
Refer to the current version of EPC for the latest available replacement tank ventilation valve part number.
