Oil pressure problems and metal shavings in engine oil in BMW 3 Series Diesel (2013) after 87999km

Hi, I have a problem with my BMW 3 Series (diesel, 2013) and was wondering if anyone is familiar with it. After 87999km on the clock, the oil light is illuminated, metal shavings can be seen in the oil and the warning light on the speedometer is also illuminated. I suspect that the engine oil pressure is too low. Have you ever had this problem and what was the result of the repair in the workshop? Unfortunately, I've had bad luck in the past and would be happy to hear any experiences and tips. Many thanks in advance!

Oil pressure switch?

Hi Steve, if you're referring to a problem with your oil pressure light coming on, it could indeed be an issue with the oil pressure switch. This is a relatively common problem and replacing the switch often resolves the issue. However, if the light remains on after replacing the switch, it's important to have a professional mechanic inspect your vehicle as it could indicate a more serious issue with your oil pump or engine. Please keep us updated on your progress and let us know if you have any other questions.

Hi Ionut.B, the error code 004CA0 on a BMW E90 320d typically relates to an issue with the oil pressure control. This could be due to a faulty oil pressure sensor, a problem with the oil pump, or even low oil level. Start by checking your oil level and if it's fine, consider replacing the oil pressure sensor. If the problem persists, it's recommended to have a professional mechanic inspect your vehicle as it could indicate a more serious issue with your oil pump. Please keep us updated on your progress and let us know if you have any other questions.

I can't do anything with the thermostat heating error KFK 00007B ? BMW E53 X 5 year 2004 gasoline 232 hp. Thanks in advance.

Hi Thogibsy, the error code 00007B on a BMW E53 X5 typically relates to an issue with the thermostat heating. This could be due to a faulty thermostat, a problem with the thermostat control circuit, or a malfunctioning temperature sensor. It's recommended to start by checking the thermostat and its connections, then proceed to the control circuit and temperature sensor if necessary. Please keep us updated on your progress and let us know if you have any other questions.

Hello, the diagnosis shows the error code 00007B (map cooling control). Which component could the error code indicate, as the cooling water temperature sensor and the cooling water thermostat appear to be functioning normally (cooling water temperature is displayed in the normal range in the on-board computer and the engine does not take long to warm up when cold). In my case, the model is a BMW E46 320CI built in 2000, thank you very much.

Hi Mr.0605, the error code 00007B typically relates to an issue with the map cooling control. Even though your coolant temperature sensor and thermostat seem to be working fine, the issue could be with the map thermostat itself or its control circuit. It's recommended to check the map thermostat and its connections. If the problem persists, a professional mechanic should inspect your vehicle to prevent potential engine damage.
