New starter

Posted on January 28, 2019 by bmwtechnician

Here’s a new type of starter for you,,,,this was on a X5 phev with a N20 engine,,,now we all know the starter has small drive teeth that spin the flywheel,,,,well we dint do that on this engine because the flywheel generates power for the battery’s Instead we use a belt that looks like a timing belt,,,it goes around the starter and the front lower crank pulley. Here is the lower front crankshaft pulley,,,it’s a different look for everyone

      The power management fault could be your car battery low voltage,,,if you have a good battery and it is registered to the car then I wouldn’t worry about that fault,,,,we see that fault a lot and it’s kind of a random fault,,,,as long as your car starts and charges your battery then I worry about that fault,,,,,I would worry about the electric fan fault which is the front engine fan malfunctioning

    Wow! That’s interesting. Thanks for sharing. I use to work on BMW’s. 10-14 most of our clients had e46’s e53 e83 & e39’s
    So that era is long one. Currently working for fleet of domestics. Either way thanks for sharing.
