Problems with BMW 7 Series Diesel 2015: Check engine light, faulty DPF regeneration and possible pressure drop in the Ad-Blue system
(Translated from German)
Summary of the thread
A 2015 BMW 7 Series diesel is experiencing issues with the check engine light, faulty DPF regeneration, and a warning light on the speedometer. The suspected cause is low pressure in the Ad-Blue system. A suggested solution is to check and refill the Ad-Blue tank, as a similar issue was resolved by simply topping up the tank, which is a cost-effective first step before considering more expensive repairs.

Hello, thanks for the quick reply! My car already has 241311 km on the clock. The last service was about three months ago, but these problems have only appeared since last week. I can also try filling up the tank and see if that helps. Did you do this yourself or have it done in the garage?

Hey, then it's definitely a good idea to check the Ad-blue tank and top it up if necessary. I did it myself back then because it's not rocket science. But if you're unsure, it's better to have it done in the workshop. It's always better if you're not sure. Just make sure the engine isn't too hot when you do it. As it's quite cheap, try this first before investing in a more expensive repair. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any more questions!

Great, thanks for your advice! I'll check the Ad-blue tank tomorrow and top it up if necessary. I hope that solves the problem. If that doesn't work, I'll have to visit a garage for better or worse. But it's good to know that topping up doesn't have to be expensive. I'll let you know if I need any more advice. Thanks again!

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2013 BMW 5 series diesel, I have a bit of experience with cars. My car also had problems with the Ad-blue system pressure. I took it to the garage and it turned out that my Ad-blue tank was empty. The repair cost me 62 euros. They simply filled the tank and everything worked perfectly afterwards. Can you give me more details about your car? Then I might be able to help you even better.
