2005 BMW 1 Series 1116i cranks but no start - plenty of fuel and fuel pumps working . no start

what fuel?, gas or diesel, LPG, LNG, e100 what? (E81/E82/E87/E88; ? aka E8x says "the four-cylinder turbo-diesel, four-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol, six-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol and six-cylinder turbocharged petrol (the latter only available on coup? and convertible models)." I can not guess engines !, if not told straight up." what does 1116i mean., google returns zip, a typo or bounced a key? YES ! or post the country and VIN and we tell you what is under the hood and is first, step. let we wild guess it burns GASoline (petrol) and has spark (sure does) and spark is dead DIY. all fuses good and next we scan the car at the OBD1 scan port USA, 16pins. it then tells my why spark is dead. and why spray test fuel fails. a standard easy test, for prove spark and engine are ok for 100 years, the same exact test. your engine is here. find it and tell it for 10x more exact answers for free. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_BMW_engines OK googling me like crazy car really is Series 1.6 116i just 2 ones. no three. I guess this is a BMW test day? best I can tell that is an E87 BMW,actual E87 1 Series 5 door 116i has a naturally-aspirated Inline 4 cylinder engine, Petrol motor. 1596 cm3 (1.6l) This engine produces a maximum power of 115 PS (113 bhp - 85 kW) at 6000 rpm and a maximum torque of 150 Nm (110 lb.ft) at 4300 rpm. So if E87 it is then it has spark and no fuel ever burns lacking spark and must be scanned, after all fuses test good here is the best test (EFI ways) DYI 1: connect scan tool & key on make sure scan tool works.!!! 2 CRANK FOR 5 SECONDS, AND RELEASE KEY 3: DO NOT TURN KEY OFF NOW. 4: SCAN AGAIN SEE WHY ECU TELLS YOU WHY SPARK IS DEAD, IT SURE WILL, DTC P-3XX , HARD HARD ERRORS. LIKE THESE. CPM DEAD. CKP DEAD SPARK DEAD. FUSES DEAD BATTERY WEAK. AND MORE, NOT SCANNING IS THE PROBLEM YOU CAN NOT FIX MODERN CARS LACKING THE TOOL SO RENT ONE/? MY GUESS THIS IS THE CAR https://www.ultimatespecs.com/car-specs/BMW/4921/BMW-E87-1-Series-5-door-116i.html

2001 BMW X5 e53 left side front and rear doors will not unlock from inside or outside or with central lock switch.

On a 2001, and because it is only on one side of the vehicle, and because it is the drivers side only, my guess is that the wire that goes from the driver's door to the door frame is damaged. The best course of action would be to take it to an auto electrician for diagnosis with their pro grade scan tool computer. There are some other theories in the link. https://www.google.com/search?q=2001+BMW+X5+e53+left+side+front+and+rear+doors+will+not+unlock ..

False engine code on startup

Hi, please take your car to your local autozone and allow them to run a free diagnostic test on the car to see if the same error comes up on their end. If so, then the error is real and they can advise you on the next steps to take to overcome it. Thank you.

320i doesn't start but cranks...

USA CAR,NOT tOLD yours.nor "e"code, series3 code. e21 ,1975? 2.0L 320i. the "i' only means fuel injected 320d is diesel what matters more 'e" code, e21 up. No year told, NO ENGINE told, nOR GAS OR DIESEL.?????? i= gas. first we test fuel last , not pumps first (sorry but i cover that) the engine must be good, no bad engine burns fuel and run. next is (gas engine) spark must be good or if diesel glow plugs.working. then comes fuel checks last. (all this is basic basics 101 stuff) the PCm cuts fuel for many good reasons. but we test fuel pressure cranking, on any dead engine using a tool called fuel gauge ( PSI or in Europe BAR/kPA) CRANKING ONLY IF THE FUEL PUMP RELAY IS DEAD, MOST TIMES THAT MEANS THE PCM IS CUTTING FUEL ON PURPOSE. TOP CASE PCM SEES SPARK DEAD AND MUST BY LAW CUT FUEL FAST. if car has bad TPS sensor and it sends 5vdc to the PCM for throttle angle (100^%) or WOT false signal the PCM cuts fuel or the PCM sees IMMO not happy it cuts fuel. or spark and on some cars even cuts cranking, on my car it cuts fuel after 3 second run if IMMO KEY FAILS. other simple tests, is Test fuel.spray if engine good and spark good, test fuel works. see? but no engine told and spark plugs all tested for good spark.. on on all uSA cars here, 1996 up any OBD2 scantool works so we scan it first. see why the PCM cut fuel??? as it can for many reasons, on gasoline engine top causes are P03xx DTC errors for sure CMP or CKP sensors failing it cuts fuel 1or2 ways. NO CAR TOLD at all. 47 year span , sorry can not guess. The year the first BMW 320i was manufactured was 1975 Max Nebular car. fuel is cut to prevent CRASH and burn as seen on TV, endless. by law and pure hard LOGIC. deep inside the PCM. and more.

BMW 318i 2004 injectors are not spraying or opening

Have you checked for voltage to the injectors? If all of them are not working it could be something as simple as a blown fuse or a faulty relay. Try this website as there were some updates done to some 3 Series models around 2007. fuse-box.info/bmw/bmw-3-series-e90-e91-e92-e93-2005-2013-fuses-and-relay

My 2010 bmw 320d is going into limp mode and a yellow small start stop fault light is coming on the dashboard

Limp mode is usually a sign there is something the vehicle electronics lists as possibly serious. A yellow light is generally a caution sign and means it needs looking at as soon as you possibly can, where a red light means it needs to be looked at there and then. You will need to get the vehicle plugged into a diagnostic system or an OBD2 Scanner to check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes, (DTC's). If you have to pay for this service ask at 4 or 5 different garages as prices can be VERY different. Use the comment button below with these codes and I'll try to help you more.
