I have two error codes on my BMW e60 520i 2717 oxygen sensor 29A3 Lambda Sensor Pre Cat Bank 2 Signal I have replaced the precat sensor bank 2, but I still have the error code 29a3 present. What do I

This is a sensor in the exhaust system. If you take your vehicle details to a Good parts retailer and ask for an Oxygen sensor. They are also know as O2 or Lambda sensors. Sensor 2 is positioned 'after' the catalytic converter, (the CAT). There are 2 sensors for each exhaust fitted, one before and one after the CAT. Bank 2 is the side of the engine involved.

have throttle body checked also the MDK throttle motor,
make sure that the dealer has followed service bulletin 12 07 99 for procedure to replace the MDK throttle motor
also have them check for codes,here are some codes,
it could be an expensive job,have them check everything,it is most likely the throttle motor,,throttle body is 600 if they switch it,dont let them do it without checking throttle motor,

P0140 BMW P0140 BMW - O2 Sensor Circuit Low Voltage Bank 1 Sensor 2



Possible causes - Faulty Rear Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1
- Rear Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 harness is open or shorted
- Rear Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 circuit poor electrical connection
- Inappropriate fuel pressure
- Faulty fuel injectors
- Intake air leaks may be faulty
- Exhaust gas leaks

Replacing the Rear Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 usually takes care of the problem

P0304 = #4 cylinder misfires
P0170 = Fuel Trim, Bank-1
P0173 = Fuel Trim, Bank-2
P1250 = this is invalid code for BMW
P1188 = Fuel control, bank-1, sensor-1 (pre-cat sensor)
P1189 = Fuel control, bank-2, sensor-1 (pre-cat sensor)
Vacuum leaks and/or sensor defective for the issues of the codes.
This error codes really need parts to replace. But you have to replace the thermostat first. Then clear the codes and see if any reappears,then replace defective part/s

BMW outputs codes in Hex format. The tool then reads the code and it may translate it to its own format. Some 29A.. code definitions here:

29A0 Lambda Sensor Post Cat Bank 2 Signal
29A1 Lambda Sensor Post Cat Bank 2 Signal
29A2 Lambda Sensor Pre Cat Bank 2 Signal
29A3 Lambda Sensor Pre Cat Bank 2 Signal
29A4 Lambda Sensor Heater Pre Cat Bank 1 Activation
29A5 Lambda Sensor Heater Pre Cat Bank 2 Activation
29A6 Lambda Sensor Pre Cat Bank 1 Signal
29A7 Lambda Sensor Pre Cat Bank 1 Signal
29A8 Power Management Network Failure
29A9 Power Management Battery
29AB Torque Request via CAN
29AE Tank Cap

Code 29A8 it's a NETWORK management fault, related with tne main computer. Will need to visit BMW dealer to delete or reset it.

I hope helps with this.

Are you getting the code P0173 That would mean that the ECU was unable to set the correct mixture for cylinders 4-6 (bank 2). I'd guess that the most likely culprit for that failure would be a failing pre-cat O2 sensor based on the code alone.The pre-cat O2 sensors are a critical part of the feedback loop for mixture control. When an O2 sensor ages enough it no longer delivers a valid signal to the ECU, which can cause this fault. The only other component that will affect only bank 2 is the catalytic converter for that bank. Given relative costs of O2 sensors and catalytic converters I'd change out both pre-cat O2 sensors and see if that helps. FYI: O2 sensors are usually staring to fail at 80-90K.

did you mean 1176? that's oxygen sensor bank 1
