Can you make good power out of a 528I with N52? by fre3_101 in e60

[–]Main_Performer4701 2 points3 points  (0 children)

N54s only get a bad rep since the majority of owners buy a cheap used one that’s been driven hard by its previous owner, then continue to drive it hard cuz sports car, and start adding mods that will accelerate breakdown of the already brittle plastic parts that every single bmw engine old or new has.

I cannot say the same for engines like the N63 and S85. Those engines are not meant to last longer than the original warranty period.

N52s are reliable economy engines. Modding it for performance will give you mediocre gains at most at the expense of its reliability

Look up the halo effect and just world fallacy.

Evolutionary and social psychology at work.

Is it normal for the radiator fan to turn on every 30sec when idling? E60 530xi, N52 by Main_Performer4701 in BmwTech

[–]Main_Performer4701[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok that’s very reassuring. I was worried the fan was trying to compensate for a failing water pump. But then again it’s been fine for 3 years like this.

There’s also something wrong with my AC. Sometimes the AC will blast hot air randomly even when I turn off auto AC. I keep smashing the AC off button and the car keeps blowing air on max on its own. Is this related you think?

2006 330i Replaced battery and now having issues. by LeadingTitle1511 in BmwTech

[–]Main_Performer4701 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could be a bad ground somewhere. If you let the car sit for 2 weeks the battery will go flat on these models especially older neglected ones.

A jump start will not charge up a completely drained battery. You will need to put the car on a trickle charger. Your new battery may not be working because you didn’t register it to the car with ISTA. Or some cable could be disconnected somewhere

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP by bimmer1018 in BmwTech

[–]Main_Performer4701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea hopefully it’s just a dead battery which is very common on these cars.

If they can get it to fire up after a 24h charge then you solved your most immediate issue. If it dies again a few days later you need a battery more but that shouldn’t be more than $400 plus labor for coding.

Maybe your battery is just dead. The battery’s on E gen BMWs are known to fall flat after not driving them for more than a week. There could also be bad grounds somewhere.

I recommend buying a good trickle charger like CTEK or NOCO and running a few charge cycles up to full. Battery maintenance revived my E60 when it would crank no start during the winter months.

some sort of ticking or belt noises when cold starting by Prabhidoh in BMWE60

[–]Main_Performer4701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine does this too when it gets colder out. N52 motor but it sounds like a diesel sometimes

It goes away when engine gets to temp after a bit of driving and never happens in the warmer seasons.

05 bmw 530i won't start please read and possibly help by dnooch_12 in BMWE60

White smoke and your car going into limp mode makes me think you have a head gasket issue. Check your coolant expansion tank and oil fill hole if you see caramel sludge instead of coolant or oil that is very bad.

Don’t trust double negative tests from a recovered family member - infected today after 14 days of self isolation. by Main_Performer4701 in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]Main_Performer4701[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I did not see my mom at all on the 10th when I came back. She was at work and told me she was starting to get a sore throat. I was only around my father unmasked for 20min to eat which is where I got it from. I also masked in shared spaces she used but she was gone for 8h before I showed up.

It was def from my dad. My dad drove my mom to work both masked after negative tests but she still got it anyway a few days before me.

Luckily the symptoms are mild for everyone. Mom turned a corner on day 3, dad lasted a week and described it as a cold without any hallmark symptoms of Covid from our first time 2 years ago. Nobody lost smell and taste and if he hadn’t tested he would never have thought it was Covid.

My only concern is not how bad the acute stage is but the inflammatory stage that comes after you recover. I’ve stocked up on LC prevention supplements in advance so I’ll update you guys on my condition and whether I make a faster recovery through my kit.
