[NEW] All models with NVLD

INFORMATION

TEST MODULE OPERATING HINTS FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE NVLD SYSTEM

Evaporative system leakage is found using the NVLD tank leakage test plan:

[NEW] If a fault is identified when using the NVLD leakage test plan, the following points should be verified.

1. Check that the fuel cap is properly closed.

2. Testing the evaporative system requires all venting pipes and electrical connectors to be properly connected.

3. [NEW] Search for leakage using the VACUTEC(R) Smoke Machine 625-522B-BMW: always pressurize the system without smoke, and

monitor the flow meter and decay pressure gauge for system leakage. If leakage is present, briefly smoke the system to determine the location

of the leakage. Refer to the attachment when connecting the VACUTEC Smoke Machine 625-522B-BMW to the evaporative system.

Evaporative system leakage is NOT found using the NVLD tank leakage test plan:

Only perform the applicable test plans for the faults stored. Do not replace any parts unless a leakage is found using the smoke machine.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS WHEN USING THE VACUTEC SMOKE MACHINE

Testing evaporative systems for leaks is very challenging. We have developed some diagnostic hints and special tools to properly connect a

smoke machine to the NVLD fresh air vent/filter connection.

Attached is a detailed procedure for connecting the smoke machine to a vehicle using Natural Vacuum Leak diagnosis (NVLD).

Recently the VACUTEC(R) Smoke Machine 625-522B-BMW was added to the BMW Equipment Program. The VACUTEC(R) Smoke

Machine 625-522B-BMW is the only approved testing device for the fuel and evaporative systems. This device automatically converts air to

high purity nitrogen, using Pressure Swing Absorption (PSA) nitrogen technology. Orders for the VACUTEC(R) Smoke Machine,

625-522B-BMW, can be placed by calling the BMW Equipment program at 1-888-222-7997.

Included with the new VACUTEC(R) smoke machine are various caps and adaptors to help connect the applicator hose to the vehicle. It is

always suggested not to disturb the system before testing; try to create as little disturbance as possible to the system when connecting the

smoke machine. This smoke machine utilizes an UltraTraceUV(R) smoke solution. The smoke solution incorporates an ultraviolet dye, which

helps pinpoint the leak with an ultraviolet residue surrounding the leak area. Determining the source of the leak is made easy when the

included Hi-Density True UV LED light and incandescent white light are used.

When testing the vehicles evaporative system using the flow meter on the VACUTEC smoke machine, the ball indicator should not lift from

the zero measurement on the scale when the system is leak-free. All BMWs are designed to be 100% leak-free. A flow meter indicating zero

flow would be the same as placing your finger over or kinking the application hose of the VACUTEC smoke machine (no flow = 100%

leak-free).

For more information regarding evaporative system testing describing possible fire hazards using oxygen vs. nitrogen, please refer to the

following SAE website: www.sae.org/technical/papers/2007-01-1235

It is possible to access all stored audio data directly through a playlist, as well as searching for genre, artist, album or title. However, the sorting and

displaying of audio files in the vehicle can only be carried out correctly if all the data stored on the MP3 player (e.g., ID3 tags) contains only Roman

characters. Playlists must contain absolute path indications if the audio file is not located in the same directory as the playlist itself.

Storage of the device and first installation

Observe all operating and storage instructions for the device if the iPod, MP3 player or USB stick is stored in the vehicle. It is recommended not to

store iPods, MP3 players or USB sticks in the vehicle for any length of time, since extreme environmental conditions (temperature, humidity) may

cause damage to the device.

Upon initial connection of an iPod, MP3 player or USB stick containing large amounts of data, audio files can be only accessed through the

directory structure of the device. The search by genre, artist, album or title only becomes available after the corresponding file information has been

transferred to the vehicle. The performance of an iPod, MP3 player or USB stick in the vehicle (such as duration of synchronization or operation

speed) depends on the storage capacity and technology of the device, as well as the number and the format of stored audio files. For example, the

synchronization of a USB stick with 8 GB of flash storage can take up to 10 minutes; longer synchronization times could be due to device specific

characteristics. During this time, music titles can be selected through indexes and file names.

Should the interaction of an iPod, MP3 player or USB stick with the USB Audio Interface not function correctly, it may also be due to defective or

unsupported encoding of audio files (e.g., bit rates bigger than 256 kbit/s).

For questions, please contact your local customer service directly or via email at: customer.service@bmw.com.

Compatible devices

Due to the variety of MP3 players and USB sticks and their technical differences, faultless operation with the USB audio interface cannot be

guaranteed for all devices.

For a list of compatible and/or recommended USB devices, please refer to the BMW USA website:

www.bmw.com/com/en/owners/navigation/audio/usb_audio.html.

Troubleshooting/Concept Related Behaviors

TROUBLESHOOTING

Technical limitations of the USB audio interface

1. The connected USB device is not recognized and cannot be selected as an entertainment source. This is with the USB device connected at

vehicle start-up, or if the USB device is connected with the ignition on (KL15):

^ Not all USB devices are compatible with option 6FL or option 6NL. Please refer to the latest list of compatible and/or recommended USB

devices. www.bmw.com/com/en/owners/navigation/audio/usb_audio.html

^ For diagnosis of the USB audio interface connection, please refer to SI B65 07 08.

2. A track cannot be played and/or is skipping:

^ The file has an invalid format (not mp3, wma or aac), is corrupt, or protected by Digital Rights Management (DRM).

3. Playlists, genres, artists, albums and tracks on USB devices are not displayed:

^ Only Roman text characters are supported. Other character sets (Greek, Japanese, etc.) cannot be displayed.

4. Time period differs for playlists, genres, artists, albums and tracks on USB devices are displayed:

^ The time period for playlists, genres, artists, albums and tracks on USB devices to be displayed depends upon the number of audio files on

the final device. In the case of a device with 80GB storage and 15,000 audio files, for example, this could take several hours.

2010 BMW 335i Coupe (E92) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) Page 48

5. The iPod cant be fully operated through the vehicle audio system (affects only option 6FL):

^ For use of an Apple iPod, it is recommended to use the "Adapter cable for Apple iPod" (Y-cable). If the Apple iPod is connected using the

USB connector cable supplied with the iPod, the iPod is activated as a USB MSC device. This is only possible if the iPod has been

configured accordingly, using iTunes, and formatted using an FAT file system (Windows systems only, not Mac). In addition, no access to

the playlists is possible in this operating mode and the DRM-protected audio files cannot be played.

6. Distortions through the audio system when the device is connected to the cigar lighter for charging:

^ There are malfunctions and audio interference, if a device is connected to both the USB connector and the 12V socket. Depending on the

model, the USB devices may be supplied with power by the USB connector itself. This means that no additional power connection is

required, nor is one recommended.

7. USB hard drive is not working correctly:

^ Trouble-free operation of USB hard drives cannot be guaranteed. The power supply of the USB is not sufficient for most hard drives.

Audio interference may also occur. The use of hard drives is neither supported nor recommended.

8. iPod 3rd Generation is not working:

^ iPods of the 3rd generation are not supported.

9. With the CCC head unit, the browsing history is not stored. For example, if the list of artists is browsed and an artist is selected, the cursor will

appear at the beginning when returning to the artists list.

^ Normal operation.

10. There are malfunctions if a mobile phone is connected to the USB Audio Interface and paired with the Bluetooth hands-free system:

^ Some mobile phones deactivate Bluetooth if connected to USB.

Concept related behaviors

1. Intermittent inability to select and/or activate categories such as playlists, genres, artists, albums, and tracks after starting the vehicle with the

USB device already connected. This occurs if very few audio files (less than 70) are stored on the USB device:

^ Disconnect and/or reconnect the USB device, or store more audio files.

2. Message "Reading data" is permanently displayed:

^ Make a new selection; disconnect and/or reconnect the device; change the entertainment source and change back again; allow the vehicle

to enter sleep mode.

3. Message "No supported audio files found" is displayed when a playlist is selected:

^ If playlists and audio files are stored in different folders, absolute paths must be used, e.g., /dir1/dir2/track.mp3.

4. Interference is heard instead of an audio track after a vehicle start with a USB stick connected:

^ Select a new track manually, or skip forward or back.

SiriusXM Satellite Radio: How It Works

MODEL

[NEW] All

[NEW] Vehicles equipped with option 655 (Satellite Radio)

INFORMATION

What is satellite radio in general?

It is a subscriber-based radio service that is broadcast directly from satellites. Subscribers will be able to receive up to 100 radio channels featuring

compact disc digital quality music, news, weather, sports, talk radio and other entertainment channels.

Basically, it is an additional radio band. Unlike AM and FM, which are transmitted from earth-bound transmitters, satellite radio comes primarily

from a signal sent via satellites orbiting the earth.

Satellite radio signals are digital and the satellites cover the entire continental US.

This means channels have no geographic boundaries, and when driving across the country, satellite radio should not encounter static or fade.

However, brief reception loss or distortion may occur when the satellite receiver in the vehicle loses sight of the satellite: for example, in dense

urban areas surrounded by high-rise buildings; under trees; in tunnels; or in some mountain valleys.

When such reception losses occur, "Acquiring" is shown on the radio display. This is normal operation and requires no further diagnosis.

NOTE:

SiriusXM has already installed land-based repeaters to minimize these occurrences.

How does SiriusXM satellite radio work?

[NEW] Sirius satellite radio is a Digital Audio Radio Service (SDARS) service operating in North America, owned by SiriusXM Radio.

Programming originates and is managed in the broadcast studio of SiriusXM, and transmitted to multiple high-powered satellites positioned in orbits

above the U.S.

The signal will then be broadcast from the satellites directly to satellite radio-capable receivers across the United States.

[NEW] For more detailed information, please log on to the SiriusXM website:

Satellite radio will not disrupt any existing radio signal. It is still possible to listen to local AM and FM stations.

[NEW] What is necessary for a SiriusXM satellite radio to operate in BMW vehicles?

To receive SiriusXM satellite radio in a BMW, three main components are needed:

1. SiriusXM-compatible audio system

2. Satellite antenna

3. Activated SiriusXM satellite radio receiver

The SiriusXM Satellite Receiver is a module that either is already part of the head unit (CIC, RAD2+ radio, etc.) or it mounts as a separate control

2010 BMW 335i Coupe (E92) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) Page 83

module in the rear of the vehicle.

The receiver is unique to BMW and specifically designed to work with SiriusXM satellite radio technology, integrating seamlessly into the BMW

bus network system.

The receiver module deciphers the satellite signal and converts it into an audio signal that is then sent to the vehicle's audio system.

The receiver will have a test channel (CH 184) to make sure the receiver is functioning.

The receiver must be activated to receive complete SiriusXM programming.

The BMW center activates the receiver via BMW CenterNet or a SiriusXM call center.

The Satellite Antenna is mounted on the roof on most models, and on the trunk of others.

Due to the technology of satellite radio transmissions, the antenna must be on the metal surface of a predefined area.

SiriusXM satellite radio is available for the following BMW vehicles:

Factory Installation

Refer to the availability chart on the SiriusXM website: www.siriusxm.com/vehicleavailability/b

Retrofit

Only vehicles with option 693 (Satellite Tuner Preparation)

Refer to the compatibility chart (Sirius Application and Parts Information) for retrofit kits in the Electronic Accessory Information Portal on BMW

CenterNet.

NOTE:

SiriusXM satellite radio is not available for the Z3 Roadster/Coupe, Z8 and E38 models.

IMPORTANT:

For newer BMW models, it is necessary to activate the satellite radio receiver through an enabling code.

For additional information on enabling codes (ordering, downloading, installation), refer to Service Information B09 04 09 and B09 05 09..

SUBJECT

CIC-HDD: Audio Output Has Dropouts or Distortions During Playback

MODEL

All models with option 609, (Navigation System Professional, CIC)

SITUATION

When a CD or DVD is inserted into the Car Information Computer (CIC) internal DVD drive, the audio output can have dropouts or distortions

during playback.

INFORMATION

These audio output dropouts and/or distortions only occur if the inserted CD or DVD was already copied onto the CIC internal Hard Disc Drive

(HDD) and when this CD or DVD has copy protection.

IMPORTANT:

As soon as a copy-protected CD or DVD was copied onto the HDD, the audio output dropouts and/or distortions also occur without a CD or DVD

being inserted into the CIC internal DVD drive!

CAUSE

2010 BMW 335i Coupe (E92) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) Page 96

The CIC internal HDD recognizes the inserted CD or DVD as already copied onto the HDD and will play the music from the HDD database and not

from the CD or DVD.

Therefore the music data copied from the copy protected CD or DVD onto the HDD can be corrupted and cause the audio output dropouts and/or

distortions during playback.

Note:

CDs or DVDs that are played back in the CIC internal DVD drive but are not copied onto the HDD do not show this behavior.

CORRECTION

Do not replace parts and do not perform any repair attempt!

This is normal operation of the entertainment system.

Delete the music data stored on the CIC internal HDD and play the music directly from the CD or DVD inserted into the CIC internal DVD drive.

Please explain the behavior of the entertainment system to the customer.

1. Unlock - Lock - Unlock the vehicle with the remote control key.

2. Check the stored FM radio stations for each remote control key.

3. If there are no FM radio stations stored for one or more of the remote control keys, store some FM radio stations for each remote control key.

4. Let the vehicle enter sleep mode (approx. 16 minutes after Termina R off) to properly store the FM radio stations for each remote control key.

5. Retest the functionality.

Procedure 2 - only if Procedure 1 does not resolve this issue:

1. Submit a PuMA case with the subject "Radio stations default to FM87.7."

2. Include the answers on the following questions in the PuMA case:

^ Are relevant faults stored?

^ What is the battery voltage before and while starting the vehicle?

^ Are external components connected?

^ What are the weather conditions when it happens (cold/hot)?

Note:

When the ISTA system message displays: Battery voltage only "XX.XX" V. Please connect charger Please note the displayed battery

voltage reading in the repair order comments section.

CPO Inspection Guidelines: Engine Inspection on Vehicles with Extended ("Overdue") Oil Service Intervals

MODEL All

SITUATION

During the CPO inspection process, vehicles with a questionable service history may require further consideration prior to continuing with the CPO

inspection.

2010 BMW 335Cic Convertible (E93) L6-3.0L Turbo (N54) 70

Such vehicles will fall into the category of "TSE must approve" when qualifying for the CPO Program, using the "CPO Service Guidelines -

Maintenance Tables" document (copy is attached). This Service Information bulletin provides the engine inspection procedure for vehicles with an

extended ("overdue") service history.

In general, the high quality synthetic oils used in BMW engines provide sufficient protection against oxidation, nitration and thermal breakdown,

even in situations when the regular service maintenance was extended ("overdue"), due to the customers neglect.

However, certain external conditions (mainly city driving style and/or high engine loads; poor fuel quality; extreme ambient temperatures), combined

with excessively long oil service intervals, may accelerate engine oil degradation, which may cause premature wear of the engine components.

Continuous city driving (stop & go traffic); fuels with high content of olefins; sulfur and certain aromatic fractions; and very high ambient

temperatures are the most influential factors causing premature oil aging and a consecutive engine mechanical deterioration.

If the vehicle falls into the category of "TSE must approve" (red zone in the table), the following steps need to be performed in order to determine

vehicles CPO eligibility:

1. Remove the engine valve cover (on N62/N62TU and N73 engines, only from the left bank) and the oil filter insert.

2. To document the engine condition, digital pictures of the valvetrain; the inside surface of the valve cover; the oil filter insert; and the

identification plate from the left B-pillar must be taken.

3. Create and submit a PuMA case titled "CPO Engine Inspection", which should be categorized as follows:

The submitted PuMA case must describe the vehicles service history and must also have the pictures listed above (taken in "jpeg" format with low

resolution camera settings) attached.

4. Based on the information provided in the PuMA case, the TSE will qualify the vehicle for the CPO enrollment. If the TSE determines that the

vehicles condition will disqualify it for the CPO Program, then he will reply to the "CPO Engine Inspection" case denying the approval for the

CPO Program.

5. If the TSE determines that the vehicle condition is acceptable for the enrollment in the CPO Program, then the TSE will reply to the PuMA

case approving the CPO enrollment.

6. The attached illustrations below are the examples of how the engine components should be photographed, and should be used as guidelines in

the inspection process.

SUBJECT

Transmission Failures Due to Incorrect Installation

MODEL

All

SITUATION

Transmission failure and damage can result from the incorrect installation of the transmission.

These transmission failures and or damages are often caused by damaged, misaligned or missing dowel bushings between the engine block and the

2010 BMW 328xi Coupe AWD (E92) L6-3.0L (N52K) Page 88

transmission housing. The resulting transmission-to-engine misalignment will gradually wear off the splines on the input shaft of the clutch cylinder

until power transfer is no longer possible.

The failure symptom relating to the misalignment is a popping sound while driving,loss of forward and reverse gears and finally totals failure of the

transmission. Transmission failure may occur between 1,000 and 25,000 miles after removal of the engine and or transmission depending on the

severity of the misalignment.

Misalignment of the transmission to the engine can also occur as a result of improper engine removal procedures (transmission is left in vehicle

during short block replacement), etc.

It is imperative that the proper procedures, tools and equipment necessary to repair or replace an engine or transmission be used. Additional

installation information can be found in SI B11 05 11 "Engine Removal and Installation Tips".

See attached document describing the damage that will result from improper transmission installation.

WARRANTY INFORMATION

The warranty does not apply to the following:

Damage that results from improper repair.

Claims for transmissions replacements that result from the situation described in this Service Information bulletin will not be accepted.
