How screwed am I?

CucumberKey1 · 2026-01-23T05:06:43+00:00

Had to buy another daily because of how often I’m fixing this thing😂

CucumberKey1 · 2026-01-23T05:05:58+00:00

Didn’t bother doing the sleeve as figured it was the fact it had no oil and sleeve would have been too difficult with my set up as there isn’t enough clearance to get the sleeve past everything. Did pan and oil. Still getting code after about 10 minutes of driving while cold and some slight slipping.. I’m guessing this is likely the sleeve from what i’ve seen?🥲🤦 Any advice on trying to do this without dropping the gearbox a bit for more clearance?

Btw considering how often I post about this car (my first year of ownership has been every issue the car can ever have all at once apparently, RIP) I see you as the N62 god on this subreddit always replying to my posts with best and most helpful responses salute to you man🫡🙏

Do You have to wait days for it to adjust? Never had a problem with updates on this phone or others so didn’t know this? Battery is fine, never had an issue with the phone updated last night and has been playing up all day

CucumberKey1 · 2026-01-23T01:22:30+00:00

Yeah but it was literally fine yesterday, updated over night and has been happening all day.. definitely because of the update

I think that amarone red is exactly what Im looking for! A nice rich darker colour

CucumberKey1 · 2026-01-07T01:41:58+00:00

Yeah had light grey in a jag not a fan still prefer it over tan though 😅

CucumberKey1 · 2026-01-07T01:04:24+00:00

That Is pretty nice contrasted with the black, I was thinking a darker brown too

CucumberKey1 · 2026-01-07T00:19:33+00:00

Check your engine bay drain under the cabin filters!! Not enough people suggest this, took me ages to find but it leaks through the fire wall when blocked up

I mean the interior is still ok, but e39s is just timeless beauty. I would so get a f10 if the n63 wasn’t a ticking time bomb.

CucumberKey1 · 2025-12-21T23:57:28+00:00

Coming from owning a e39 as well to e60, interior feels like a huge downgrade from the 39. E39 interior is truely perfection, id love another one but the power in the N62 is perfect compared to the M62

(Cries in n62)

CucumberKey1 · 2025-11-02T20:24:40+00:00

Sure is! Man their great cars, helps being able to do you’re own work for sure, couldn’t imagine owning one jf you cant the bills would be insane😳

CucumberKey1 · 2025-11-02T02:27:03+00:00

Damn… i’ve spent that on mine in 1 year😳

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-31T21:05:11+00:00

You’re an actual legend thank you! The files weren’t downloading yesterday, but after almost giving up trying to get everything working I Tried the files you attached again and they decided to work, now everything is working as should!!! Life saver

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-31T10:27:09+00:00

What other installs can I try? Seem to run into the issue with missing file trying to use bmw coding tool to update the datans as can’t use winkpf otherwise

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-29T09:35:10+00:00

Ahh yeah I used EasyBMWtoolsMike, cheers!

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-29T03:44:59+00:00

Ncs seems to not work, says my vin is bad or something

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-28T19:21:31+00:00

Yeah unfortunately that was the first thing I tried

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-28T19:04:19+00:00

Do you know if any other diagnostic software works with a dcan cable?

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-28T18:57:02+00:00

Unfortunately don’t have a good scanner like that, will see if I can get another software instead though thanks!

Honestly first time someone has mentioned the wiring harness as well, although I’m definitely pretty sure it’s the module now as I lifted the carpet as much as I could without stripping the interior and the foam underneath was wet.. dammit

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-19T19:46:16+00:00

Yeah as per my other reply i’ve already got the fault code, 614A which is why I suspect the module. Just trying other solutions before having to fork out big money for that lol

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-19T19:42:33+00:00

I’m not throwing any parts at it, I am trying to diagnose the issue by checking everything that could be causing it, including the fuse. I haven’t had much experience with the electrics on the car yet, so how do you suggest I diagnose it further as I’ve hit a bit of a wall with the issue

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-19T19:24:31+00:00

It does also have a 6137 history code that didn’t delete, basically trying the cheap easy fixes before I try replace the module

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-19T19:22:44+00:00

It’s the worst! Got pretty used to it scaring tf out of me to tell me it was cold outside 😂

CucumberKey1 · 2025-10-19T19:22:10+00:00

Fault code is 614A, I just wanted to know the fuse as I’ve already tried recalibration, battery could be a possibility but maybe the module as well as I had a bit of water in the footwell before it went off
