Correction

Inspecting the EGR valve:





Remove the charge air pipe at the throttle (ignition off). Using a flashlight, look through the throttle (1) and inspect the EGR valve.





The updated EGR valve (P/N 11 71 8 517 217 or P/N 11 71 8 512 526) has the valve and seat directly in the airstream of the throttle (1). If this valve is installed, no further action is needed. Reinstall the charge air pipe.





The original EGR valve has a diffuser in the airstream flow from the throttle (2). The valve for EGR actuation is seated further into the EGR airstream. Replace this valve with P/N 11 71 8 512 526 (Repair Instruction 11 71 501).

The DDE will also need to be programmed as part of the Recall. If the HP EGR valve is replaced, the DDE will need to be programmed after the new EGR valve is installed. This new software package contains the necessary software to adapt the DDE to the new EGR valve strategy.

Program the vehicle using ISTA/P 2.46.0 or later.

Note that ISTA/P will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the latest software.

For information on programming and coding with ISTA/P, refer to CenterNet / Aftersales Portal / Service / Workshop Technology / Vehicle Programming.





PARTS INFORMATION

LABEL INSTRUCTIONS





After the vehicle has been checked and corrected, obtain a label (SD 92-435) and with the indelible marker provided, legibly print the Recall name, Recall number, and dealer code (5 digits) on the Recall Completion Label (see illustration). An initial quantity of 100 labels will be sent to all BMW centers. Peel the label from its backing and affix it to the right (passenger) rear side of the hood in the engine compartment, close to the windshield.





For California centers only: it is required by the California code of regulations that an executed orange "Vehicle Emission Recall - Proof of Correction" certificate (SD92-084, see illustration) be provided to each customer (for vehicles registered in the state of California), once the recall on his or her vehicle has been completed.

Note: additional labels can be ordered online at BMW TIS.
