What P-codes are stored?

 

01 is the error codes showing. Using a launch diagnostic tool. Which gives a 01 code and the delivery-controller control deviation error. Engine was recently flooded. When it starts in the morning lots of smoke billows out. Replaced the air flow meter but still the same problem. Its fine when its gets warmed up. Unfortunately by that time none of the neighbours can see out their windows!

 

Could be a lot of damage done by a flood.

 

Yeah I reckon you may be right! I have done a lot searching to find out what this error is but it doesn't show up anywhere with an explaination. Everything else on the car has been fixed and is working right. This is the last nut to crack.....

 

Flooded as in fuel, or flooded as in water? What color is the smoke?

If the engine was flooded by water, it may have suffered internal damage. Has the compression been measured?

"Everything else on the car has been fixed and is working right." What all was done to it?

P-codes are in the form of P-xxxx, a 4-digit code. You may be able to get a readout at an auto parts store.

My only guess, for this code description, is fuel injection control, which could be a wiring problem, or the engine control computer was damaged.

 

Thanks Ed I checked with my local BMW dealer and they could not explain the code only that it exists! Flooded with water. Replaced Air Flow Meter, got all the water out. Smoke is white. Once the engine heats up it clears. Compression has not been measured.

 

Are you noticing any loss of coolent--if so you may have a blown head gasket--
