1. Did you replace the actuator?
2. How sure are you about the vacuum lines going to the correct units?

 

[MicB]

sorry mate, i guess this is where remote diagnostics reaches the end of the road.. next would be hands on diagnostics.

but let us know whatever the end result is, it might help us make a more accurate diagnostics for the next guy. hope you get it right and good luck..

ideally you should create your own thread, plus we gonna need some more details, or at least a pic or two of these plate thingies.. if the smoke eventually stopped, its no worries, if it keeps coming there is a serious problem somewhere..

So I found the problem guys my computer went it would open the vacuum actuator but it would not close it again we put a test unit in had to get keys and everything to get her to start but she goes like a dream. The guy I took the car to worked at BMW and has all the tools his starting his own thing form home and he is very good at what he does if any of you guys need a BMW specialist let me know I’ll give you his number . Oh and thanks for all the help guys :clap:

Did you buy a new unit or did he fix the old one? Cost?

 

[MicB]

Sending the old one in and getting a refurb part with a 12 month guarantee they need to get the code off mine and put it onto the refurb part
Its going to cost R7500.00 for that. A new one is R15000.00 from BMW
