SOURCE: engine misfire and some times does not start when cold

Replace the Oxygen sensor. All your trouble codes are downstream of the oxygen sensor, and are related to it.

Once you replace the oxygen sensor (replace with a BOSCH sensor!), remove the positive battery cable, step on your brakes for 10 seconds, then reattach the cable. This will clear the codes from your ECM (Electronic Control Module).

SOURCE: BMW 1999 318i eml light come on whilst driving.

The EML light will come on if you have an emissions fault , the car may drive ok but you may find you are using more fuel , it would be better to get the problem checked just to be on the safe side , regards mark.

SOURCE: hi i have a 318i bmw 2001 my fuel consumption is

Last month, my wife complained of high gas usage as well. I suddenly remembered that I had forgotten to change the air filter the last time I did the oil change. It had been over 5 months since I'd put a new one in. So, we got a new air filter, and monitored the usage, and it was back to normal again. Maybe try this?

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.

MY BMW 318I 88/89 MODEL WILL NOT START IN THE MORNING ONLY IF I RUNNING START IT,AND SOMTIMES IN THE EVENING. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS MATTER.BRUCE

Hi Bruce
Take the vehicle for a scan and I'm fairly sure the fault will be recorded as a defective temperature sensor. Once that is replaced I think the problem will be solved. What happens is the sensor signals the injection system to allow more fuel for starting when cold and at the moment it can't know if the engine is hot or cold, so it injects for an engine at operating temp. (When cold the engine needs more fuel to be able to start)

BMW 318i wont start engine

I would have the battery tested. When they get cold they get weak. Next I would look at the wires on the starter to see if their loose.
