ER charge pipe/ codes

New21er · 12-08-2012, 12:26 PM

After installing the charge pipe in my 2011 135i, I am getting 2 codes on my P3 gauge. 29D0 & 29E0. They both are related to the intake air sensor. I haven't tried the P3 code delete process yet, I was just wondering if anyone has experienced this issue???

Did you remember to swap over the little rubber ring gasket from the throttle body connection?

Codes on new parts are never normal.

O ring installed properly, had to use a tiny bit of Vasiline to help it in. All other connections were checked/ rechecked.I just don't see why I would get any codes at all??

That should mean a leak in the intake somewhere. If you are hooking up to stock piping, check that you didn't overtighten the clamp on the silicone sleeve.

Also double check your maf sensor has its ring and is seated

Ok, I tried deleating the codes through the P3 and no dice. Went on a brisk drive and everything seems to be fine, car pulls hard and drives as usual. Just have the 2 codes showing on my P3 gauge. If these two codes were a serious malfunction, then woulden't the car go into some sort of a limp mode??
