    One year ago, I had the same error code on my N43. In my case, the problem was the pressure sensor. I’m sharing this information in case it helps someone. Greetings from Spain.

    Great video. THE main issue is rust bubbling and powder coat ingestion into the engine oil thenceforth it goes everywhere. I just replaced a sump. Told the owner I dont touch the car unless you let me drop the sump. New solenoid will last a month or 2 then oil pressure static will come back.

    hello, tomorrow I'm going to change the oil pressure sensor and the oil pressure valve on my car, the oil pressure light only comes on when I'm driving on the highway and I'm driving over 180 km/h, so it only comes on at high revs, if anyone can tell me what are the chances that it's this or I'll I have to dig deeper. I see that a lot of people have problems with chain deposits and pieces of plastic, but I changed the chain 10,000 km ago, thank you.

    Hi. I have a small question.
    My BMW 320i 2009 has engine (n43 engine) problem and I want to change its engine with BMW 320i 2005 which is I think n46 engine.
    Is it possible to swap. Will the computer and size match. I shall be grateful if you please let me know. Thank you very much

    I am asking for help.
    I own a BMW e90 n43 1.6 petrol.
    it happens to me that at low revolutions, at about 1400-1500 revolutions, when I suddenly add gas, full gas, it starts to jerk and throw out an error, check the engine. When I turn it off and turn it on, the error is deleted and it works normally. There are no other problems at higher speeds, only at low revs with sudden acceleration, if I accelerate slowly, there is no such problem, it does not jerk.
    if you have any idea what i could check and make sure to change the spark plugs themselves they are new. Thanks in advance

      @anesk4285 First scan for error codes with INPA or N43 compatible scanner

      @@BimmerZen I scanned with the Autel IM608 and it said an error on the third cylinder missing ignition and in addition it also says a Lambda sensor error.
      Tomorrow I will give you a picture of exactly which errors it throws out. Thanks again

      I forgot to say that there is a lot of smell from the exhaust, like some bad gasoline. At the first ignition, it emits black smoke from the exhaust. And currently it shows me the average fuel consumption of 11.6 liters,

      You need to be more specific which code and description. Most probably bad ignition coil or injector. Swap coil nr 3 with a good coil cylinder on nr 1 or 4. If the error moves, you know you have a bad coil. Another more probable cause is bad injector. New are very expensive, if you get used injector make sure you have some guarantee it works or warranty. Contrary to popular believe, these piezo injectors can not be cleaned so don't bother with that... Try to get the same injector version as your existing injectors.

      I will follow your advice and I will certainly take pictures of the mistakes if they are repeated on the same cylinder

      @ yes unfortunately for me after changing the 2 sensor after driving like 40 minutes the Red Light showed up again I delete the code I did another driving the light came back again..: so I assume I have plastic in the oil or maybe a bad oil pump !!! What do you think

      Always start by scanning for error codes, then just google the codes with the engine code.
