Monitoring criteria
The temperature of the VVT driver circuit in the DME is monitored, and the system responds to overheating by
reverting to VVT emergency mode operation - the vehicle continues to operate, but in throttled mode. Incorrect
use of the pedal-position sensor, consisting of rapid, repeated pressure extending over several minutes heats up
the VVT driver circuit in the DME, leading to its deactivation when it reaches a critical level.

Short circuit on the BSD_BUS. Either to ground or positive, rendering communications impossible. Or no
BSD_components connected to the DME.
1. Disconnect all BSD_components (alternator, battery sensor, water pump) except for the oil sensor. Clear
fault memory. Ignition off/on. If fault code is stored again: QLT is defective and must be replaced. Repeat
test.
2. If fault code is entered again after QLT replacement: -> Check wiring harness (BSD_BUS) and all plug-
in connections for corrosion and shorts to ground/UBatt.
3. If fault code no longer appears after QLT replacement: -> QLT was defective.
4. If no fault code is stored after all components (except QLT, as in 1.) are disconnected: -> The fault lies

No oil level display/no oil temperature display available. Service interval calculations for next visit are based on
model. Water pump runs at 100% cooling capacity and draws continuous current of approximately 15A. Power
management fails to operate correctly because it is not possible to read battery sensor.
Remarks
ATTENTION: Simply switching the ignition on/off is enough for problem diagnosis. Because the water pump
may not be connected, and the engine could overheat, you should avoid starting the engine. Fault status can be
reset by clearing fault memory.

13 31 ... NOTES ON FUEL PRESSURE CHECK (REFERENCE PRESSURE: ENVIRONMENT)
Feature of this version with ambient pressure:
The connection for the vacuum hose of the fuel pressure regulator is located between the throttle and the air
cleaner or on the air cleaner.
Test precondition:
cardiagn.com
The correct fuel pressure regulator is fitted.
 Using the EPC, check whether the fuel pressure regulator suitable for the car is fitted:
Connect test adapter.
Description of operation:
The control function of the fuel pressure regulator must be guaranteed under all operating conditions. The fuel
pump must always be able to generate a higher fuel pressure than the pressure regulated by the pressure
regulator.
The injection rate is adjusted by means of the injection time; the injection time is controlled by the DME.
Description of operation: fuel return line
When the engine is at a standstill and the ignition key is in position 0, the fuel return line after the pressure
regulator is at zero pressure.
Description of operation: pressure retaining function
The pressure regulator closes when the engine is at a standstill and the ignition key is in position 0. The fuel
pressure in the delivery line is retained over an extended period. A non-return valve closes in the fuel pump.
These measures help to retain the fuel pressure in the fuel system. Extended starting times are thus avoided.
Complaint: drive characteristic faults, lack of power
 Run engine at idle speed and measure fuel pressure.
If the measured value is less than the nominal value - 0.2 bar:
 Line cross-sections in fuel feed are constricted or fuel filter is clogged,

2007 BMW X3
or
 Fuel pump voltage supply is not O.K.: e.g. as a result of high contact resistance (corrosion) in plug
connection between wiring harness and fuel pump.
If the measured value is greater than the nominal value + 0.2 bar:
 Turn off engine stop and then observe measured value.

 If measured value drops to nominal value, then line cross-sections in fuel return are constricted or
clogged.
 Check the fuel lines for kinks.
If no kinks are visible:
cardiagn.com
 Replace return lines
If measured value remains too high, then pressure regulator is in all probability faulty.
IMPORTANT: With less likelihood, the return line may be completely blocked. When the
pressure regulator is removed, fuel could escape under pressure!
 Have a cleaning cloth ready and catch and dispose of escaping fuel.
 Replace the return line but not the pressure regulator.
Complaint: starting problems
 Run engine briefly at idle speed and switch off.

 Note down measured value while engine is stopped.
 Read off measured value again after approx. 20 to 30 minutes while engine is stopped.
Special tool 13 3 010 (hose clamp) is required for the following test.
If the measured value has dropped by more than 0.5 bar:
 Start engine and wait briefly for a stable pressure increase.

 Switch off the engine and immediately pinch off the delivery line just before the pressure gauge with the
special tool 13 3 010.
 Note down measured value
 Read off measured value again after approx. 20 to 30 minutes while engine is stopped
If the measured value has now dropped by less than 0.5 bar, the following faults can be present:
 Fault in delivery lines

 Fault in in-tank delivery hose
2007 BMW X3
 Faulty pressure-holding non-return valve in fuel pump
Check components. Replace faulty components.
If the measured value has dropped by more than 0.5 bar again:
 Replace pressure regulator
NOTE:  All the fuel hoses and hose clips which were detached within the
framework of the checks must be replaced.
 Interrogate fault memory of DME control unit. Check stored fault
messages. Rectify faults. Now clear the fault memory.

DIAGNOSTIC OVERVIEW
The ECM tests the catalyst system during steady state driving by cycling the fueling LEAN and then RICH for
a calibrated number of cycles while monitoring the oxygen storage capacity (OSC). Prior to the Catalyst test the
canister purge valve is completely closed or completely opened with low canister purge value. This is to
eliminate the influence of canister vapors on the downstream sensor during the test.
The first lean to rich cycle of the test is only used to establish an average voltage value of the downstream
sensor voltage. During subsequent cycles the OSC is based on the integrated (accumulated) value of the
difference between the average value of the previous lean to rich cycle and the measured instantaneous voltage
during the current lean to rich cycle.
MONITORING FUNCTION
Catalyst monitoring is based on the monitoring of the oxygen storage capability by comparing the signals of the
O2 sensor upstream and downstream the catalyst.
The engine control results in regular lambda oscillations of the exhaust gas. These oscillations are damped by
the storage activity of the catalyst. The amplitude of the remaining lambda oscillations downstream the catalyst
indicates the oxygen storage capability.
If all monitoring conditions are fulfilled, then a special defined A/F-modulation will be done. The relation of the
deviations between the current downstream-sensor-signal to the average value of the downstream-sensor-signal
is a sign for catalyst condition. The catalyst system is considered malfunctioning, if after a specified number of
monitoring cycles the average of the ratios exceeds a threshold. The corresponding fault code is stored.

MONITORING FUNCTION
cardiagn.com
The method of engine misfire detection is based on evaluating the engine speed fluctuations.
The engine torque is a function of engine speed, engine load and the moment of inertia.
In order to detect misfiring at any cylinder, the torque of each cylinder is evaluated by metering the time
between two ignition events, which is a measure for the mean value of the speed of this angular segment. This
means, a change of the engine torque results in a change of the engine speed.
It is also an influence of the load torque. This means, the influences of different road surface, e. g. pavement,
pot holes etc. If the mean engine speed is measured, influences caused by road surfaces have to be eliminated.
This method consists of following main parts:
Data acquisition:
The duration of the crankshaft segments is measured continuously for every combustion cycle.
Sensor wheel adaptation:
Within a defined engine speed range and during fuel cut-off, the adaptation of the sensor wheel tolerances,
instead of the misfire detection, is carried out.
With progressing adaptation the sensitivity of the misfire detection is increasing. The adaptation values are
stored and taken into consideration for the calculation of the engine roughness.
Calculation of the engine roughness:
The engine roughness is derived from the differences of the segment durations. Different statistical methods are
used to distinguish between normal changes of the segment duration and the changes due to misfiring.
Determination of misfiring:
Misfire detection is performed by comparing the engine roughness threshold value with the engine roughness
2007 BMW X3
value. If the threshold is exceeded, single misfire is detected.
STATISTICS, FAULT PROCESSING
Emission Limit: (e) (3.2.2)
If the sum of cylinder(s) misfire counters within 1000 revolutions is 4 times exceeding a predetermined value
during a driving cycle, or during the first 1000 revolutions, the fault code for emission relevant misfiring is
temporarily stored. If the following driving cycle is also above the emission limits, the MIL will be switched on
and a cylinder selective or global fault will be stored.
Catalyst Damage: (e) (3.2.1)
If the weighted sum of cylinder(s) misfire counters within 200 revolutions exceeds a predetermined value the
fault code for catalyst damage relevant misfiring is stored and the cylinder with the highest rate will be switched
cardiagn.com
off and the MIL will be switched on immediately. If two cylinders are switched off and the misfire rate is still
above the damage limits, MIL is flashed immediately. If one of the cylinder selective counters exceeds the
predetermined threshold, the following measures take place:
1. The Lambda closed loop system is switched to open-loop condition.

2. The cylinder individual fault code is stored or if multiple cylinders, then the Global fault code is set.
3. Fuel supply of the misfiring cylinder(s) is not cut-off (per customer request)
4. No downstream fuel trim.
All misfire counters are reset after each interval.

EVAP-SYSTEM LEAK DIAGNOSIS (MODULE DM-TL)

EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM LEAK MEASUREMENT
P0442/0456, 1434, 1447, 1448, 1449
General description of leak measurement
The evaporative system monitoring permits the detection of leaks in the evaporative system with a diameter of
0.02 inches and up.
cardiagn.com
By means of a Diagnostic Module Tank Leakage (DM-TL), an electrical actuated pump located at the
atmospheric connection of the evaporative canister, a pressure test of the evaporative system is performed in the
following order:
a. During the Reference Leak Measurement, the electrical actuated pump delivers through the reference
restriction. The engine-management system measures the pump's electrical current consumption in this
section.
Fig. 1: Evaporative System Diagram (Actuated Pump Delivers Through Reference Restriction)
b. During the Leak Measurement, the electrically actuated pump delivers through the charcoal canister into
the fuel-tank system. The pressure in the evaporative system may be up to 2.5 kPa depending on the fuel
level in the tank. The engine-management system measures the pump's electrical current consumption. A
2007 BMW X3
comparison of the currents of the reference leak measurement and the leak measurement is an indication
of the leakage in the tank.
cardiagn.com
Fig. 2: Evaporative System Diagram (Actuated Pump Delivers Through Charcoal Canister Into
Fuel-Tank System)
0.02 inch diagnosis:
The first step of the diagnosis is the reference measurement, the result of the pump reference current is
stored (picture in chapter a). After the solenoid switches, the venting system is pressurized (picture in
chapter b). In the rough leak measurement the rough leak threshold is reached, if the leak is smaller than
0.04 inch and then the small leak measurement phase follows. When the DMTL current reaches the
reference current within the small leak time, the system is tight (leak smaller than 0.02 inch), otherwise a
small leak between 0.02 - 0.04 inches is detected.
0.04 inch diagnosis:
The first step of the diagnosis is also the reference measurement, the result of the pump reference is stored
(picture in chapter a). After the solenoid switches, the venting system is pressurized (picture in chapter b).
In the rough leak phase (time) the pump current must reach the rough leak threshold 1 (rough leak
threshold 1 = idle current pump + K1 x (reference current - idle current). Factor K1 is between 0.16 and
0.28 depending on the characteristic current value of the pump (reference current - idle current), this
value is various in every pump.
If the rough leak threshold 1 is not reached in the rough leak time, the rough leak threshold 2 must be
reached in an additional time (rough leak threshold 2 = idle current pump + K2 x (reference current - idle
current). Factor K2 is between 0.60 and 0.80 depending on the characteristic current value of the pump
2007 BMW X3
(reference current - idle current).
If the rough leak threshold 2 is also not reached, a leak > 0.04 inches is detected.
In the diagram below is the typical current of a tight system, a 0.02 inch leak, and a leak > 0.04 inches.

EVAP (FUNCTIONAL CHECK CANISTER PURGE SOLENOID)
P0440, 0441
Monitoring the canister purge solenoid
The diagnosis is used for the functional test of the CP solenoid (CPS).
The test consists of three steps. Step 2 can be triggered separately by an EOL (End Of Line) request by a serial
communication tool.
Step 1: based on the activated charcoal filter (ACF) load degree
Step 2: based on ...
 the engine speed change at idle speed

 the deviation of lambda-controller
 manifold air pressure (MAP) change at idle speed
Step 3: based on the difference between the measured air mass flow before and during a CPS opening
Monitoring function
The first check of the CPS is based on the ACF- load degree. The "Canister Load diagnosis" is calculated
2007 BMW X3
permanently until the complete check CPS is finished.
During the next check, the CPS is evaluated based on the engine speed change at idle speed. To this effect, the
CPS is opened for a short time and the engine speed monitored for a certain period.
After this check has been enabled for the first time, it is requested during each idle speed phase. This is repeated
as long as a result has been reached. This check is not bound to one IS phase, but can be distributed to several
IS phases.
During this check the lambda deviation will also be checked.
In step 3 the CPS is considered on the basis of the measured mass air flow before and during a CPS opening
phase.
If the CPS is detected to be not OK after all three checks have been passed (end of step 3), then the error is set.

FUEL LEVEL SENSOR
P0461, P0462, P0463, P2067, P2068
The diagnosis of the fuel level sensor signal consists of a circuit continuity check and a rationality check.
FUEL LEVEL SENSOR CIRCUIT CONTINUITY CHECK
The signal of the fuel level sensor is monitored concerning the valid range. This range depends on the used fuel
level sensor.
If the left or right fuel level sensor signal is above the upper threshold, a short circuit plus is detected. If the left
or right fuel level sensor signal is below the lower threshold, an appropriate fault code for the left or right sensor
is set.
FUEL LEVEL SENSOR SIGNAL RATIONALITY CHECK (PLAUSIBILITY ERROR)
The engine management system of every BMW has the capability to calculate fuel consumption. For the fuel
level sensor plausibility check, this calculated consumption is compared with the difference of the fuel level
signal. When the calculated fuel consumption reaches an appropriate and predetermined amount (for example
five gallons), the calculated fuel consumption is compared to the change in fuel level as indicated by the fuel
level sensors. If the difference is greater than the applicable threshold value, a stuck fuel level sensor fault is
detected and an appropriate fault code is set.
If a fault is present, the OBD II EVAP leak monitor will run using a substitute value of 85% total fuel tank
volume.
The 85% substitute value will assure that in every case the required 0.020 inch leak is detected by the OBD II
system.

POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV) SYSTEM

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PCV-SYSTEM
There are 3 tubes connected to the engine: The first of them conducts the blow-by gases from the cylinder head
cover to the separator, where the oil is separated from the air and lead back by a second tube to the crankcase
sump. A third tube directs the cleaned blow-by gases via the intake system to the combustion. The pressure
regulator makes sure that the high vacuum level between crankcase and ambient air will be reduced if needed.
DIAGNOSIS OF A LEAKAGE IN THE PCV-SYSTEM
A disconnection or leakage in the PCV-System is indicated by a rough or stalling engine and results in a
reaction within the fuel system (fuel trim deviation). In this case a fault code will be stored by the fuel system
monitoring.

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE MONITORING

CAN BASED AMBIENT TEMPERATURE - SIGNAL DIAGNOSIS
P0072, P0073
2007 BMW X3
General Description
The purpose of this diagnosis is to detect electrical faults as defined in OBDII requirements. The input signal is
a CAN message of instrumentation cluster. If an error is present on CAN signal, an error symptom is set and an
error counter is de-bounced.
Error Symptoms
 short circuit to vbatt or open line

 short circuit to ground
 signal error
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SIGNAL PLAUSIBILITY CHECK
cardiagn.com
P0071
General Description
This diagnosis is performed in order to detect a stuck or not plausible TAM signal which cannot be detected by
electrical range diagnosis.
The first part, just after start looks at the change of ambient temperature and compares the start and stop
temperature. If the check is positive the diagnosis is finished. In negative case diagnosis runs to next step during
warm up phase.
The error detection is only performed if the monitoring conditions for time after start, engine state idle speed,
time of engine stop, ECT and ambient temperature are fulfilled. The plausibility error is detected if the absolute
value of the temperature-difference between the arithmetic mean of ECT (Engine Coolant Temperature) and
TIA (Temperature Intake Air) and the ambient temperature TAM (in formula: ABS [(ECT+TIA) x 0,5 -TAM)])
exceeds the threshold for an anti-bounce time.
The error validation is only performed if ECT signal is valid and the vehicle was driven with a certain vehicle
speed. If both conditions are true and an error was detected, then the error is set for this driving cycle and the
diagnosis is switched off.
For RBM handling the Cold Start Denominator will be considered.
Error Symptoms
 Ambient temperature not plausible
Input parameters for monitoring
 ECT
 engine state
 engine stop time
 ambient temperature after engine stop (last driving cycle)

FUEL SYSTEM MONITORING

LAMBDA ADAPTATION
Diagnostic Overview / Monitoring Function
(P0171, 172,174, 175)
cardiagn.com
The ECM monitors the fuel system control continuously during all engine states except PUC (decal fuel cut-
off). After the enable conditions are met a counter is started. At this point the ECM evaluates the total
percentage of short and long term fuel control. If no condition is present the end diagnostic counter will
decrement from a calibrated value to zero and a passing decision is made.
If a lean condition is present and total fuel control is above the calibrated threshold two timers are started. If the
lean threshold counter exceeds the calibrated threshold before the reset timer has decremented from a calibrated
threshold to zero a lean error is set.
If a rich condition is present and total fuel control is below the calibrated threshold two timers are started. If the
rich threshold counter exceeds the calibrated threshold before the reset timer has decremented from a calibrated
threshold to zero a rich error is set.
The time counter is increased while "lambda controller + lambda adaptation" exceed minimum or maximum
threshold.
The error is detected as soon as the time counter reaches its maximum value.
2007 BMW X3
Fig. 12: Fuel System Monitoring Timing Chart

Similar Conditions Function
When the engine management system recognizes a failure in the misfire or fuel systems, the engine
management system is required to record the conditions present when the fault occurred. These conditions
recorded include engine speed, engine load (MAF), and warm up status of the first event that resulted in the
storage of a code. These conditions stored are referred to as similar conditions
Once the similar conditions are met without a failure in the misfire or fuel system, the flag is set to 1. Once this
flag is set the driving cycle counter for that failure can be decremented.
The code and stored freeze frame conditions may be erased if similar conditions are not encountered during the
next 80 driving cycles immediately following the initial detection of the malfunction.
cardiagn.com
The MIL may be extinguished after three sequential driving cycles in which similar conditions have been
encountered without an exceeding the thresholds of the fuel system diagnostic.

Monitoring Description
This function determines, if an open circuit in any of the four electric lines (Reference Voltage, Virtual Ground,
Pumping Current and Trim Current) is present in the WRAF Sensor.
This function shall be triggered only if one of the following diagnosis is active (to set the readiness bit), which
are 'Upstream Oxygen Sensor - Signal Monitoring During Fuel Cut-off and 'Upstream Oxygen Sensor - Heater
Monitoring'. The function shall go to the state = "active" only if one of the above diagnosis detected a fault.
(Reference Voltage)
If a heater error exist and sensor voltage is too low, while the internal resistance measurement is turned off, an
open circuit in the line 'Reference voltage' occurred.
(Virtual Ground) or (Pumping Current)
An open circuit in line Virtual Ground or in the line Pumping current can be detected if the sensor signal stocks
near lambda 1. The sensor non-activity can be detected by the Oxygen Sensor Signal Monitoring During Fuel
Cut-off (signal voltage below e.g. 2.1 V *) in fuel cut off).
(Trim Current) If the sensor shows an augmented gain, i.e. the sensor signal is higher than the nominal
characteristic line, the plausibility test during the fuel cutoff phase shall detect this symptom (signal voltage
above e.g. 5.6 V *) during fuel cut off) and an Open Circuit is assigned to the line Trim Current.

Diagnostic Overview
Sec (e) (7.2)
This function will detect an error during the initialization and/or operation of a WRAF sensor controller through
SPI communication. Information communicated from the Basic Software (BSW) is used for initialization and
communication between application software (ASW) and the controller. This is used to determine if the
function is working properly.
Monitoring Function
Sec (e) (7.2.1)
After an ECU reset, the WRAF sensor controller is started and the diagnosis determines the time until the
initialization, has been performed in the allowed time. If not successful, then a DTC will be stored. If this is

successful, then the difference is checked between the present error counter and the stored value of this error
counter at ECU reset, (switching from Key "OFF" to Key "ON") or at clearing error memory and after each
function call, in case a difference between both counters was found. If there is a difference, another counter is
incremented.
If this counter is higher than a threshold, a SPI communication error is stored.

This monitor is an enhancement of the Downstream Oxygen Sensor - Active Signal Check (Stuck lean / rich)
and the Trim Control Plausibility Monitoring. Its purpose is to help determine the root cause of a stocking
downstream sensor signal or a implausible high i- share of the fuel trim controller.
The monitor will only be enabled if a fuel correction fault has been detected and a malfunction code has been
stored (P2096 - P2097 - P2098 - P2099)
OR
if the rear sensor signal check has detected, that the rear sensor signal is very rich or very lean and the
corresponding malfunction fault code has stored (P114A - PI 14B - PP114C-P114C)
If one of the listed fault codes exists, this diagnosis will be enabled to determine if the root cause of the
malfunction is due to a stuck signal or characteristic line shift of the upstream O2 sensor or due to a stuck signal
of the downstream O2 sensor or a system malfunction, i.e. vacuum leak, injector, etc...
If it has been determined that the upstream O2 signal was the root cause of the fuel correction fault, the
appropriate DTC will be stored along with the fuel correction or with the downstream sensor stuck DTC.
Upstream Oxygen Sensor - Signal Dynamic Monitoring (Slow Response)
P0133/0153
Monitoring function
The oxygen sensor signal dynamic monitoring detects greater deviations of the dynamic behavior of the sensor
signal compared to the nominal behavior, controlled by the lambda controller
The change of the dynamic behavior is caused by problems of the electrical connection (e.g. open circuit),
extreme aging of the sensor or a low sensor temperature which slows down the sensor compared to the nominal
behavior.

The monitoring is based on an amplitude criterion, i.e. the relation between the amplification of the oxygen
sensor and the model is monitored and detects the following malfunction:

Upstream Oxygen Sensor - Signal Monitoring During Fuel Cut-off
P2297/2298
cardiagn.com
Monitoring function
The oxygen sensor signal monitoring during fuel cut-off detects if the oxygen sensor signal is not plausible
during fuel cut-off. A malfunction is detected if the oxygen sensor voltage is outside the normal operating
voltage range (3.1 V ... 5.68 V). )*
If the oxygen sensor signal voltage is between 2.1 ... 3.1 V during fuel cut-off, then the signal is not plausible.
B1S1 P2297
B2S1 P2298
If the oxygen sensor signal voltage is above a threshold during fuel cut-off (e.g. 5.6 V)* ) or below a threshold
(e.g. 2.1 V )* ) then the open circuit diagnostic function is triggered (see chapter 'OXYGEN SENSOR
MONITORING - OPEN CIRCUIT '). The fault processing continues in this function.
Upstream Oxygen Sensor - Heater Monitoring
P3026/3027
Diagnostic Overview
Sec (e) (7.2.3)
The purpose of this function is to detect oxygen sensor heater failures that would lead to an increase in
emissions beyond the thresholds stated in the appropriate regulations.
The diagnosis shall be carried out by determining whether the measured oxygen sensor ceramic temperature
falls below set limits over a number of measurement cycles. The evaluations of the diagnosis cycle are
2007 BMW X3
determined after the completion of a limited number of monitoring cycles.
Deviations in the oxygen sensor ceramic temperature or the oxygen sensor not being operatively ready in a
timely manner (because of a too low temperature) can lead to an increase in emissions above the applicable
standards or prevent the sensor signal from being used as a diagnostic system monitoring device. Deviations
may occur due to, for example, ageing of the heater element, defective wiring, increased heater circuit
connector contact resistance, defective heater driver etc.
Monitoring Function
The diagnosis strategy is based on a statistical evaluation of the oxygen sensor ceramic temperature over a pre-
defined number of monitoring cycles.
The oxygen sensor ceramic temperature shall be obtained indirectly via the measured internal resistance of the
sensor.
cardiagn.com
If the sensor is not ready after a defined time (e.g. 30s after start) )* the sensor is set to forced readiness mode
and the Upstream Oxygen Sensor Heater Monitoring is started.
Two cases can appear:
 sensor temperature is invalid (no measurement of sensor temperature possible because of an ECU internal
(electrical) failure)
=>P165F/P166F is stored
 sensor temperature is below a threshold
=> normal failure detection
A low sensor temperature can be caused by a weak heater or a open circuit in the temperature measurement line
(line UN). After a low sensor temperature has been detected, the open circuit diagnosis is triggered to check, if
an open circuit in line UN is present. If there is an open circuit, then open circuit fault code (P2243/P2247) is
stored (see chapter 'OXYGEN SENSOR MONITORING - OPEN CIRCUIT ' and picture below).
If there is no open circuit present, then the heater fault code is stored (P0135/P0155).

Downstream Oxygen Sensor - Signal Dynamic / Plausibility Check During Fuel Cutoff
P0139/0159
Monitoring function
The following plausibility and activity monitoring is carried out: (e) (7.3.2)
Sensor signal plausibility and signal activity monitoring is performed during coasting conditions during fuel
cut-off (slow response / sensor signal range too small).
A malfunction is detected, if the sensor signal is not below a threshold after a short time after entering fuel cut-
off. This short time is needed to purge the exhaust pipe. Usually the signal falls from fuel trim correction
setpoint (e.g. 680 mV) to a voltage near 0mV.

Monitoring Function
This function monitors the transition Time in sensor midpoint range of the downstream sensor voltage. When a
fuel cut-off phase starts, the following steps will be executed:
2007 BMW X3
 sensor voltage must be above a threshold (signal must be rich enough, to measure the switchtime)
Remark: Usually the signal starts at fuel trim control setpoint (e.g. 650 mV)
 sensor voltage value is stored (= "start-value")

 switchtime measurement is started, when the signal is e.g. at 75 % of start value
Remark: The measurement start and stop- value are relative to the start value, to measure always the
switchtime around the fuel trim control setpoint.
 switchtime measurement is finished, when the signal is e.g. at 40 % of start value

 measured switchtime is corrected over mass air flow
The transition time ("switchtime") is represented by a cycle counter. This switchtime is measured over x )* fuel

Downstream Oxygen Sensor - Heater Circuit Monitoring
P0141,0161,P0036,0037,0038,0056,0057,0058
Monitoring Function: Circuit
For proper function of the oxygen sensor, the sensor element must be heated.
A non functioning heater delays the sensor readiness for closed loop control and thus influences emissions.
The monitoring strategy is based on the comparison of the O2 sensor heater resistance to an absolute threshold
during coasting conditions where the exhaust temperature is sufficiently low as to cause the sensor ceramic
temperature to fall outside normal operating levels, in cases where the heating power is insufficient.
The cooling energy of the exhaust gas is calculated and compared to a calibrated threshold.
The heater monitor is active if the calculated energy is equal or exceeds the threshold. Then the O2 sensor
heater is compared to a calibrated threshold. If the heater resistance is equal or exceeds the threshold, an O2
sensor heater malfunction is detected and the corresponding fault code is stored.
Corresponding fault code:
B1S2 P0141
B2S2 P0161
Monitoring Function: Power stage
The purpose of this monitor is to detect errors within the O2 Sensor Heater Circuit. The signal for the O2 sensor
heater is pulse-width modulated. The signal of the power stage is monitored internally by the driver. The driver
can distinguish between three symptoms:
 HO2S Down SCVB

2007 BMW X3
 HO2S Down SCG

 HO2S Down Open Line

CLOSED LOOP LAMBDA CONTROL - ENABLE CONDITIONS
cardiagn.com
Closed loop lambda control is enabled (with a delay) at the start of a driving cycle and can be temporary or
permanently deactivated during the driving cycle. The turn-on delay at the start of a driving cycle is described
by the following enable conditions:
 the upstream oxygen sensor operability is detected i.e. the upstream HO2'S operating temperature has
been reached
 a calibrated delay time, after end of engine start, has elapsed
 the engine coolant temperature must have exceeded a calibrated threshold or the modeled engine coolant
temperature (substitute for a faulty temperature sensor minimum) must have exceeded a calibrated
threshold after a calibrated period of time
 no secondary air activity
Closed loop lambda operation is disabled during the driving cycle, if the following operating condition,
which permits only mixture enrichment by the lambda controller, is fulfilled:
 when Catalyst overheating prevention is active.
Only for linear Lambda Sensor:
 the A/F ratio set-point value lies below oxygen sensor's measurable limit - in this case only A/F mixture
enrichment can be executed by the lambda control (no closed loop operation) the moment the set-point
value exceeds the measurable threshold.
Closed loop lambda operation is further deactivated during a driving cycle when any of the following
conditions are fulfilled:
 during fuel cut-off or cylinder shut-off and immediately afterwards till the oxygen sensor again starts
indicating correct values (the waiting time depends on integrated mass airflow or on a calibrated delay
time).
 the mass air flow is below a calibrated threshold that leads to the minimum possible injection time.
 Secondary air system active

THERMOSTAT
P0128,0597,0598,0599
DESCRIPTION OF THE ENGINE COOLANT THERMOSTAT MONITORING
The coolant thermostat monitoring is done to detect a slow warm-up due to heat losses through thermostat and
radiator. It is based on the comparison of the measured ECT sensor signal and the calculated ECT model
(TCO_SUB).
cardiagn.com
The ECT model calculation is depending on the speed of the water pump, engine load and ambient temperature.
A malfunctioning coolant thermostat is detected, if the calculated ECT model has exceeded the threshold 1
(P0128) and the measured ECT sensor signal remains below threshold 2 (P0128).
Before a malfunctioning coolant thermostat is entered into failure memory, the conditions concerning low load,
coasting duration and IAT during the monitoring are checked. If the monitoring conditions are met, the coolant
thermostat is entered into failure memory. Otherwise the coolant thermostat monitoring is inhibited for this
driving cycle.
THE INPUT PARAMETERS USED FOR MONITORING ARE
 Engine coolant temperature

 Intake air temperature
 Ambient air
 Engine load
EXAMPLE OF MONITORING METHOD

2007 BMW X3
cardiagn.com
Fig. 16: Monitoring Method (Example)
A comparison between the measured coolant temperature and the "warmed-up temperature" is done after a
specific time interval. The interval itself is based on the coolant temperature model (Function of intake air
mass).
As soon as the model temperature exceeds the thermostat opening temperature and all other monitoring
conditions are fulfilled at the same time, a valid diagnosis occurs.
At that time, if the measured coolant temperature is higher than warmed-up temperature, the thermostat is
concluded as normal thermostat.
On the contrary, if the measured coolant temperature is lower than warmed-up temperature, the thermostat is
concluded as opened stuck thermostat.

CAMSHAFT AND CRANKSHAFT SENSOR INCLUDING VALVE TIMING

CAMSHAFT SENSOR
Variable Camshaft Timing (Vanos) (detection of mechanical IVVT error)
P0012/0015
The BMW-Vanos is a combined hydraulic and mechanical camshaft control unit, managed by the ECU. The
double Vanos allows the engine to control valve-timing continuously for both intake and exhaust camshafts.
The electronically control of the Vanos positions is dependant on engine speed, load and temperature.
2007 BMW X3
The diagnosis is monitoring the correct mechanical function of the variable camshaft timing. The diagnosis
carries out a continuous rationality check of the Vanos function. If a malfunction is detected, an error bit will be
set and sent to the Error management module. This module produces the final information for setting the
corresponding DTC.
The diagnostic strategy for inlet and exhaust camshaft is identical.
Control deviation of the camshaft position controller: ("target + slow response")
Description
In this diagnosis module the difference between the actual and target position of the Vanos units ("control
deviation") is checked. If the calculated difference between these two positions exceeds the established
threshold, a counter is started. The counter is incremented twice per crank revolution (but not exceeding 10
msec-rates).
cardiagn.com
If the counter exceeds a limit (also adjustable), a Rationality Fault (DTC) is stored.
The control deviation diagnosis has got an interface to the Rate-Based Monitoring module.
A. In-use monitor performance Ratio:
The incrementing of the numerator, denominator, and the ratio calculation for the Variable Camshaft
Timing monitor is executed by the Rate-Based Monitoring module. Like all monitors for which a
standardized track and report in-use performance is required, the Variable Camshaft Timing monitor
reports to the RBM-module via status flags.
B. Conditions for incrementing the Numerator:
The numerator is incremented if and only if the monitor is not inhibited due to stored faults and the
diagnostic has been performed and a fault would have been detected.
C. Conditions for incrementing the Denominator:
The denominator is incremented if the monitor is not inhibited due to stored faults, the general driving
conditions have been fulfilled and all additional physical conditions for incrementing have been fulfilled.
Camshaft position sensor (CMP)
P0340/0365/1300/130A/0344/0369/1554/1553/0016/0017
Description
The purpose of the diagnosis is to detect when the camshaft reference position is outside the designed range
relative to the engine position from crankshaft and to detect a signal which is not valid.
The diagnostic strategy for inlet and exhaust camshaft is identical.

2007 BMW X3
Monitoring Function
The detection of each camshaft position is done by an active hall sensor and a cam wheel, "3 asymmetric teeth".
The camshaft sensor delivers 3 high and 3 low phases of different length per 720°CRK. The high or low pegel
of the signal at the reference gap of the crankshaft signal determines the position of the engine within the
combustion cycle. With that information, a engine position is calculated from the crankshaft position sensor
within a range from [0 to 720[ °CRK
The following malfunctions are detected:

Diagnosis of signal plausibility
P0340/0365
The monitor checks once per combustion cycle the edge counter of the camshaft. If the edge counter has not
changed during the last cycle, a cycle counter is incremented. When the counter reaches a threshold, the error
CAM_plaus is delivered to the error management.
Diagnosis of period length
P1300/130A
The monitor checks at every edge of the CMP signal the length of the last signal period. If the difference to the
designed length exceeds a max value, the corresponding debounce counter is incremented. When the counter
reaches a threshold the error CAM_period is delivered to the error management.
Diagnosis of synchronization state
P0344/P0369
The monitor checks at every reference gap of the crankshaft sensor signal whether the camshaft is synchronized
or not. If the camshaft is not synchronized, a revolution counter for the camshaft is incremented. When the
counter reaches a threshold the error CAM sync is delivered to the error management.
Diagnosis of mechanical reference position
P1554/1553
The monitor checks at least once per driving cycle the position of the camshaft in reference position compared
to the crankshaft position. The deviation of all camshaft edges compared to the designed position is averaged. If
the average value exceeds a max value, the corresponding debounce counter is incremented. When the counter
2007 BMW X3
reaches a threshold the error CAM_ref_crk_cam is delivered to the error management.
Diagnosis of mechanical chain jump
P0016/0017
The diagnosis is performed after the reference position adaptation and uses the same calculated average value.
The average value is stored in the non volatile RAM of the ECU as an adaptation value. Before storing the
value, the new adapted value is compared with the stored value. If the deviation exceeds a max value, the error
CAM_one_tooth_off is delivered to the error management and the new value is not stored in RAM. With this
diagnosis a chain jump of the timing chain is detected.
The diagnosis of the mechanical chain jump has got an interface to the Rate-Based Monitoring module.
A. In-use monitor performance Ratio:
cardiagn.com
The incrementing of the numerator and denominator for the diagnosis of chain jump is executed by the
Rate-Based Monitoring module. Like all monitors for which a standardized track and report in-use

Camshaft Crankshaft synchronization
P0341
Description
The purpose of the diagnosis is to determine whether the inlet (first) camshaft is used for engine
synchronization or the exhaust camshaft.
Monitoring Function
The diagnosis is performed at every edge of the selected camshaft signal and at the reference gap of the CKP
sensor signal. With the period between current event and the last event, the function eliminates the edges of the
camshaft which are not inside the designed window. The window is calculated from the designed position plus /
minus a tolerance. The tolerance is expanded by the range of the variable valve timing, when the camshaft is not
2007 BMW X3
in lock position.

- CMP sensor signal not valid for synchronization P0341
Diagnosis of camshaft crankshaft synchronization
The monitor eliminates with every event the edges from the list of all 6 cam edges, which are not insides the
pattern. If only one edge is left, the edge number is identified and the camshaft is valid for synchronization. If
no edge is left in the list, synchronization failed and is started again. If a calibrated number of synchronizations
failed, the error is delivered to the error management. Afterwards, an only if synchronization fails with the
intake camshaft, the same procedure is started with the exhaust camshaft.

CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR (CRK)
P0335/0370/0373
Description
The purpose of this diagnostic is to check the integrity of the crankshaft sensor signal and/or electrical
malfunctions. (Open line, SCG, SCVB)
Monitoring Function
The detection of crankshaft position is done by an active hall sensor and a crank wheel, "e.g. 60 minus 2 teeth".
A reference gap, "e.g. of two teeth" allows the detection of the top dead center of cylinder 0. The crankshaft
sensor delivers a certain number of high and low phases per 360°CRK. The transition from high to low is a
falling edge; from low to high is a rising edge. Only the falling edges are counted. The difference between two
falling edges is 6° CRK.

- missing CRK sensor signal P0335
- no plausible CRK signal P0335
- wrong tooth number P0370
- wrong tooth period P0370
- sync error P0373
A teeth counter is incremented at every falling edge of the CRK sensor signal. If plus or minus one tooth is
detected during the last 360° CRK at the reference gap, the tooth number debounce counter will be incremented.
If the counter exceeds a limit, a CRK tooth error is delivered to the error management.
If more then one tooth plus or minus is detected the CRK looses synchronization and a CRK sync debounce
counter will be incremented. If the counter exceeds a limit, a CRK sync error is delivered to the error
2007 BMW X3
management.
The detection of a tooth period error is done by an acceptance window. The expected tooth period is multiplied
and divided with an engine speed dependency factor. The result is a bottom and a top limit of tooth period, in
which the transition from high to low of the electrical signal has to occur. If a tooth period is not valid, the tooth
period error debounce counter will be incremented. If the counter exceeds a limit, a CRK tooth per error is
delivered to the error management.
Detection of implausible crankshaft signal is based on the detection of CAM signals without receiving correct
CRK signal. If 12 or more CAM edges are detected (eg. 2 working cycles), without valid synchronization of the
crankshaft, then CRK plaus error is detected and delivered to the error management. If no CRK signal at all is
received, the symptom is "missing signal", else the symptom is "implausible signal".

undervoltage of driver - P105B
overcurrent detection on high side / low side of H-bridge - P105A
Power Supply Control Motor is monitored through the main relay and checks over and under voltage
conditions. There is also a Power Supply sensor diagnosis which checks short circuit to battery and to ground. If
this occurs, the following DTC's will be stored:
Power Supply over voltage - P1055
cardiagn.com
Power Supply Under Voltage - P1056
Power Supply Sensor SCVB - P1019
Power Supply Sensor SCG - P1020
VVL Relay Diagnosis is performed internally to the ECU and does a comparison of the main relay voltage to
the variable valve lift capacitors. If the difference is greater than a threshold then an appropriate DTC will be
stored.
Relay Diagnosis - P1057 (Battery Main Relay Voltage - Capacitor Voltage)
Sensor Diagnosis is performed internally to the ECU and checks the sensor supply voltage to tunable
boundaries. A sensor signal versus an internal sensor self check will determine the integrity of the sensor. If an
error is detected, the appropriate DTC will be stored.
Sensor Signal fault - P1017 (ECU check)
Control Position Diagnosis and the Value Comparison Diagnosis are used to monitor the start and stop
positions and the current PWM signal movement of the variable valve train system. If the difference between
the target and actual angle is determined to be greater than a threshold percentage an error is detected, if a
difference in the start and stop positions are greater than a threshold an error is detected. If any of these errors is
detected, the appropriate DTC will be stored:
Control Position fault - P1030 (PWM out of range)
Value Comparison fault - P1064 (Difference)
Self Learning / Adaptation Diagnosis is performed internally to the ECU. There are three adaptation diagnoses
performed in this function, the top and bottom limit individually out of range and both limits out of range.
Furthermore the ECU self check diagnosis is performed, which is basically a check sum error. If any of these
2007 BMW X3
errors is detected, the appropriate DTC will be stored:
Top Limit Fault - P101A (top limit not reached)
Bottom Limit Fault - P1023 (bottom limit not reached)
Both Adaptations Fails - P1024 (both limits not reached)
ECU Check Sum Error - P1041

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL MONITOR

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL (ETC) MOTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT
Monitoring Descriptions
ETC Driver diagnosis (H-bridge): The ETC - H-Bridge IC continually checks the MTC if there is a short circuit
to battery voltage or ground. In addition the IC is able to detect overtemperature. This is performed internally to
the ECU.
ETC spring check (start routine)
(P169A, P1694)
This Diagnosis checks if the throttle spring is working correctly and if the throttle limp home position can be
2007 BMW X3
reached.
The diagnosis is performed at the beginning of every driving cycle at ignition "Key ON" position.
ETC adaptation diagnosis
(P1632, P1633, P1634, P1635)
After the initial engine start and / or component change, the characteristic Potentiometer values for the limp
home position and the lower mechanical stop are learned within an adaptation routine. The values are stored at
the end of the driving cycle in the non-volatile memory.
If the conditions are not fulfilled, the malfunction errors (DTC's) are stored.
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Motor Control Performance
cardiagn.com
(P1637, P1639)
This diagnosis is able to detect a too slow or jammed actuator. The given pulse width modulation signal
(MTCPWM) exceeds the position controller permissible maximum value for longer than designated (Max short
or Max Long) time.
If either of the times is exceeded, the appropriate DTC will be stored.
Also if a maximum allowed difference between throttle actual value and setpoint value is exceeded, a DTC is
stored.
ISC (IDLE SPEED CONTROL) ACTUATOR

90506,0507
IDLE SPEED CONTROL ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSIS
Sec (e) (16.2.2) (B) CCR Title 13, 1968.2
General Description
The purpose of this diagnosis is to detect electrical faults of the idle speed controller circuit. The controller is
PWM modulated, inverse output signals are used for continuous activation of the opening and closing of a
double-wound coil actuator.
The error detection is activated at Key "ON". The following errors are detected:
 Short to ground
 Short to battery
 Open circuit
2007 BMW X3
If any of the above errors are detected during opening or closing of the controller, the appropriate DTC will be
stored.
Idle Speed Control - Rationality Diagnosis
General Description:
This diagnosis detects the stability of the idle speed. If the commanded idle speed and the actual idle speed is
not within a calibrated value, above or below commanded, the idle speed is considered to be out of range.
If the above failure conditions are detected, the appropriate DTC will be stored.
AIR MASS FLOW METER - RATIONALITY CHECK
cardiagn.com
P1415, 1424
DESCRIPTION
Depending on engine speed, valve-lift, inlet camshaft position, outlet camshaft position and manifold pressure
an air mass flow into the cylinder is calculated. There is also a correction of the calculated air mass flow
depending on intake air temperature, coolant temperature and ambient pressure. The ratio between the measured
air mass flow and the calculated air mass flow must be between calibrated MIN/MAX-values. If the MIN/MAX
thresholds are exceeded, a time counter is incremented. After this counter reaches the threshold within one
diagnosis cycle, an air mass flow meter malfunction is detected.
MANIFOLD DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR - RATIONALITY CHECK

P1124,P1104,1105
DESCRIPTION
For a variable valve lift engine, the main function of the throttle body is to control the pressure in the intake
manifold. Therefore the manifold differential pressure plausibility check is testing the plausibility of measured
intake manifold pressure in comparison to the measured throttle position. So no throttle position acquisition
error must be present.
The setpoint of the differential intake manifold pressure is up to 60-70% of maximum torque request constant 5
kPa beneath ambient pressure. At higher load the differential pressure setpoint becomes Zero.
In case the setpoint of the differential pressure in the intake manifold is > 3 Kpa beneath the ambient pressure, a
differential pressure controller is active. The output of the controller is monitored. The output of the manifold
pressure controller has to be between calibrated MIN/MAX-thresholds. If the MIN/MAX thresholds are
exceeded a time counter is incremented. After this counter reaches the threshold within one diagnosis cycle, a
manifold differential pressure sensor malfunction is detected.
COMPREHENSIVE COMPONENT MONITORING OBD II SIEMENS VDO

FUNCTION DEFINITION
2007 BMW X3
STRATEGY
Principle:
 Sensors that can affect emissions or are used to monitor other component / system are monitored for
circuit continuity and short to battery voltage and / or to ground using high and low voltage signal limit.
 Actuators that can affect emissions or are used to monitor other component / system are monitored by
power stage voltage check for valid signals.
 For some of sensors or actuators, plausibility checks are included to ensure proper operation of the
components.
MONITORING STRATEGY FOR SENSORS
 Sensor signals out of a defined range are regarded as circuit malfunctions shorted to BATT, GND or
cardiagn.com
Open circuit.
MONITORING STRATEGY FOR ACTUATORS
 Invalid actuator output signals at power stage are regarded as circuit malfunctions shorted to BATT, GND
or Open circuit.
RATIONALITY CHECK
 Components are checked for the integrity of their values. This is accomplished by the use of a model or
other sensor inputs. If a component does not function as expected or the integrity is in question (values
are not within a threshold) it is considered out of range / plausible.

CALCULATED LOAD AND FUEL TRIM DETERMINATION

The calculated engine load "LOAD_CLC [%]" is based on the measured mass air flow (metered by the hot-film
air-mass sensor (HFM)).
Strategy:
A 2-dimensional map is used to interpolate the calculated engine load "LOAD_CLC [%]" depending on
metered mass air flow and engine speed. A weighting factor is applied to compensate the altitude influence.
The calculation is performed as follows:
LOAD_CLC [%] = LOAD_CLC_RAW f (metered mass air flow, engine speed) x (1013hPa / ambient pressure)
x 100%
with:
REFERENCE CHART
2007 BMW X3
LOAD_CLC calculated engine load in % with altitude correction

LOAD_CLC_RAW calculated engine load in % without altitude correction
In case of a malfunction of the HFM, the metered mass air flow is substituted by a modeled mass air flow value.

Illustration 1 (Standard monitoring functions during Cat Heating - Overview)
To fulfill the legal requirements, the monitoring of the idle speed is now extended to the cold start phase. In
case of an error, the specific P-Codes:
 P1561 Cold Start Idle Air Control System RPM lower than expected
 P1562 Cold Start Idle Air Control System RPM higher than expected
are set.

Illustration 2 (Idle speed control)
During cat heating, it is essential to make sure, that enough thermal energy is applied to the catalyst to heat it up
as quick as possible.
Therefore it is target to limit the ignition timing to the earliest possible value during the cat heating phase.
If there would be a demand for more torque and therefore for an advanced ignition timing beyond the limits, the
engine would be allowed to stall instead of fulfilling the demand.
The torque limits are calibrated the way that the emissions stay below 1.5 times of the limits.

Known System:
During normal driving, the ignition timing desired torque corresponds to the air mass desired torque, which
determines the ignition timing. During the cat heating phase, the cat heating torque is added to the air mass
desired torque, resulting in a higher reference air mass torque.
The efficiency, desired torque divided by the reference torque, determines the ignition timing.
New System (BMW-development):

The earliest possible ignition timing is determined by the limitation of the torque reserve to a minimum value
during the cat heating phase. For this, the required minimum cat heating torque is subtracted from the reference
air mass torque. The thus reduced efficiency leads to a safe ignition retard and limits the ignition timing during
the cat heating measures.
Limitation of ignition timing to the earliest possible ignition timing during the cat heating phase by limitation of
torque reserve to the minimum required torque reserve.
