Help! Help! The X5 3.5d has the dead engine problem

130

Asked by Glen Aug 08, 2016 at 10:38 AM about the 2011 BMW X5 xDrive35d AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I had the following Nix sensor problem.

6 month ago, the front NOx sensor had problem, and made the engine locked
deadly, so I had to change the sensor and the DDE computer. After the DDE
and the front sensor changed, the rear sensor had problem, and set 330KM to
locked the car again. I changed the rear sensor, and tried to do the procedure
to release the engine lock code. After checking the car, no problem on the
sensors, no problem on the SCR converter, but only the locked warning is still
there. Please help how I can do with this problem.

Why the change of the DDE for a simple nox sensor issue? Has the system been scanned with a OSS tool what are the codes? SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) what happen after you tried to reset?

I have a PDF testing report after replacing the DDE, but I do not how to upload here. After replacing the 2nd sensor, the waring information "Incorrect Exhaust Fluid detected. 106 miles to No Start" is still there, and cannot be cleared.
