1983 BMW 6 Series - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

That's a lot. I would get a second opinion. When the same thing happened to me, the water caused my ignition coil to crack, and not send spark to the plugs. $50, though it took a long time to diagnose. Enough water to lock an engine and damage it sounds pretty unlikely. Does it turn over? I would pull the plugs and give the starter a spin. If water fountains out the plug holes, it's just possible major damage was done. If no water, I'd be seeing another mechanic.

The main hood release in on the driver's kick panel. Pull it toward you. This pops the hood open. There is a secondary release in the center of the- hood just UNDER the hood.

It is not normal on any car.
A week is too long for a major current drain, so it has to be something small. A small courtesy light bulb in a storage compartment that is failing to turn off?
Have you added any audio accessories? (amps, DVD players, etc) Sometimes aftermarket accessories have nasty drains and have to be unplugged when the car will be parked for an extended period (months) but if one is draining your battery in a week, it is defective.
The last suspect is computers. This car has multiple computers on it that are supposed to go into sleep mode a few minutes after you shut off the car. Perhaps one of them is not going to sleep? That would not be as tough to diagnose as you might think. You put an ammeter in line with the battery and watch the current flow. It will be high at first, and then drop off after 5 minutes or so. If it is more than 50 mA or so, it is too much, so you start pulling fuses and disconnecting things until the current drain drops down below 50 mA.
On a 2010 X6, you are probably going to have to reprogram a lot of stuff after disconnecting the battery to diagnose this problem.

If you have a multimeter remove and test the fuses for continuity (OHMS) as fuses can look OK but they have blown. If your replacing fuses ONLY replace the with one of the Same colour and Amp rating.

Yes, Bimmerfest Forums are a great resource. https://www.google.com/search?q=BMW+325ci+vacuum+hose+diagram ..

Question edited for clarity. changed your Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) into Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV), and added some punctuation to make real sentences. Your car is run by computers, the computers have diagnostics and will tell you what's wrong. You can't guess faults like you have. A Professional Grade Scan Tool computer can diagnose all the computers, modules, sensors and systems in about 40 minutes. It can even record what happens and what goes wrong as you are driving! https://www.google.com/search?q=mobile+auto+electrician+near+me ..

https://cararac.com/blog/bmw-no-crank-no-start-problems-and-solutions.html This will give you a few ideas of what to look for. Make sure you are getting battery voltage to the fuse box.

To turn off HDC on a BMW, all you have to do is press the HDC button located on the center console. The button will have an image of a vehicle going downhill with a speedometer above it, and you'll know it's off if there are no lights illuminated above it. If you ever want to turn the system on again, just press the button again.

Since you fixed the fault by scan advice and was ok and on testdrive another limp mode came up, just check again with your scan to see what is the possible cause for it. Probably the crank sensor.

6 years different and a different series? If only life was that easy! Some BMW have a mechanical pump driven by the serpentine belt, and some have an totally electric powered pump. Just buy one for the model you have. https://www.google.com/search?q=2012+BMW+535i+water+pump or https://www.google.com/search?q=2006+BMW+330i+water+pump Rock Auto are a good suppliers, have images and different makers and 'qualities'. https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/bmw,2006,330i,3.0l+l6,1431850,cooling+system,water+pump,2208 ..

Check the basics first. Is battery fully charged? This is the most common reason for a no crank, no start. What exactly does it do when you turn the key? Nothing at all, no lights, no 'click' as you turn the key. A slow lazy crank?
