RECENTLY PURCHASED 2011 BMW X5D. VEHICLE HAD 147, 068 MILES. AFTER DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED FOR LESS THAN 100 MILES FROM THE PURCHASE POINT, CEL CAME ON. THE SELLER WAS NOTIFIED ONLY TO TELL ME THAT A SENSOR READING NEEDED TO BE CHECKED AND THE VEHICLE WAS FINE TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE. A WEEK LATER A CERTIFIED BMW MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THE DIAGNOSTIC READING INDICATED NOX FAULT 4BFO. REDUCING AGENT ACTIVE TANK SENSOR SIGNAL 4BAC. THROTTLE VALVE ACTUATOR 4687. AS WELL AS 3 OTHER FAULTS RELATING TO THESE. ONE OF THESE SENSORS IS IN THE ACTIVE TANK AND COULD BE ASSOCIATED WITH AN MALFUNTION OF EMISSION SYSTEM AND EMISSION VIOLATIONS WHICH COULD RENDER THE MOTOR TO BE DISABLED. BMW CLAIMS THAT NO RECALL ON THE ISSUE HAS BEEN RECORDED. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE TO FIND THAT BMW HAS ANNOUNCED A RECALL ON THE SCR SYSTEM AFFECTING THE DEF MIXER AND THE EGR SYSTEM. ALL OF THESE ISSUES WILL RESULT IN EMISSIONS FAILURE AND SUBSEQUENT ENVIRONMENTAL HARM.

I HAVE A 2011 BMW X5 335D WITH A LITTLE OVER 73K MILES. JUST RECENTLY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND AFTER A TRIP TO THE SHOP THE TECHS SAID IT WAS DUE TO A FAULTY DEF (DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID) SENSOR. UNFORTUNATELY THIS PART IS ~$930 AND IS ON A NATIONAL BACK ORDER. I ASKED IF THE PART IS A MANUFACTURE RECALL, BUT IT'S NOT. I'M MIND BOGGLED BECAUSE I HAD THE EGR REPLACED TWICE UNDER MANUFACTURE RECALL FREE OF CHARGE, BUT THIS DEF SENSOR ISN'T. HOW CAN THIS BE?.?.? THIS PART HAS TO DO WITH EMISSIONS STANDARDS AND DUE TO THE PART BEING UNAVAILABLE I'M FORCED TO DRIVE WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT UNTIL THE SHOP IS ABLE TO GET THE PART. WHO KNOWS WHAT FURTHER DAMAGE THIS WILL DO TO THE X5 AND WORST OFF, IF I DON'T GET THIS REPAIRED SOON, I'LL FAIL A SMOG CHECK AND CAN'T DRIVE MY CAR AT ALL. I'M HOPING THE NHTSA OR EPA FOLKS CAN VIEW THIS AS A MANUFACTURE RECALL ISSUE DUE TO A FAULTY PART AND TO MEET EPA STANDARDS....UPDATED 11/13/15 *BF UPDATED 1/4/2016*JS
