BMW SERVICE ENGINE SOON Diagnosis/ Reset 

Good stuff on the videos man, the 3 series owners community appreciate them

Lol repairs are worth every penny. No cars drive like BMW!

you are ON THE MONEY!!!!!!! did what you said with the coolant...( the weather conditions, etc. were the same for me as u described ) ...light went off...car runs fine!!!

This happened to me when the temperature dropped. I panicked at first because it was my first experience with the warning light. Now, I know that it may not be anything major. Thanks for the video.

I really enjoy your videos, bro. I just bought an '07 328xi and I'm trying to learn as much as I can. (Especially since I already just got burned for a water pump and thermostat by the dealer.)

Love that music in the background bro your inspirational & informative.

Very helpful. I had to top off my coolant a couple of months ago. Looks like I'll be getting the Bluetooth device soon. Thanks for the link.

So I just recently purchased a BMW 335i and my engine service pop out I was worry man... But after watching this video and follow your steps it's gone, thanks bro so helpful really 🤣

I had my service engine soon. And i did the same thing u have done and it works thank you so much.

Hey Justin, I had this same exact issue. Light came on, went to Autozone to get it read. Same issue. Went the cheap route of just buying some coolant and going to fill it. Bought some coolant and before it arrive, one day when driving to school my engine light came on for overheating. I should have pulled over but my mother worked in the town and I was miles away, so I drove there. When I got there. The coolant was bone dry. There was some wetness below the engine. Must of overheated and shot it all out. (Luckily I didn't overhear my engine and seems to run fine) I had to take it in to the shop. Needed to buy a new thermostat and water pump. So frustrating! But a week later when I got it back and paid the bill, I couldn't be mad because I truly love Apollo (Name for my 2006 BMW 325i). Hope you don't run into this! And great job on the videos!!!

Such an amazing, high quality video! Keep up the good work!

hi Justin i had a question i have a manual as well do you know when do you have to change the transmissions oil ? also the fuel filter? i would really appreciate your answer

Good filming, editing, and information, great video thank you

Just got my bmw cant thank you enough for all the shit you help with man. Thank You Justin!

I feel like it's unnecessary to have a black coolant tank vs the transparent one in most cars! Also, diggin this music bro, good work!

Hey Justin, I love your videos you inspired me to make my own channel about my bmw and mine is actually very similar to yours, (323i 2007) Glad to see a bmw enthusiast near my area! Great work keep it up!

Hey JB, I'm really curious to ask you, can you explain the DTC in the e90, because I experienced that on very gravel stony roads where it just appears, have you experienced that, thank you

thanks def a life saving vid with perfect links thankful, again thank you.

Hey man, thanks for the videos! What one reader you use?

THANKS FOR THE VIDEO 😜👍🏻 VERY HELPFUL 💪🏼💯 5 SERIES TEAM 😜👍🏻

You Rock Justin ! I had the same issue with mine. Thank you for the help

Thank you for the all video 👍🏻

Just bought my wife one just like yours love it keep vids comeing

I have the same issue ! Do I need to clear the code or does it clear on it's on ? I don't have obd?

3 years ago and I can't believe I missed this video!

Good video as always. Thank God it was an easy fix.

I have exactly this car, 33oi 2205/2006, n52 so that here in Brazil it comes if the navigation screen, very cool your videos, thanks for the tips

what's good bro love your videos I just bought a BMW 2005 325xi question can you pair up you phone to your car on order to play music from your phone? thank you in advance

This wasn't even the right video I needed, but I watched it through anyway.. it was just relaxing and enjoyable.

Holy crap this video helped so much, I've been getting anxiety cuz I just got a 2011 328i 2 days ago and the light came on, i thought it was something serious

Hey yeah we do appreciate it. However what should I do if I don't have the Bluetooth scanner thing that you have to clear the code ?

Good vids for BMW owners 💯 3seriesTeam

hi Buick. your vedio is quite interesting and formative. thx. Today I have a question. E 46 I am nterested in has service engine soon light and diagnostic tool found 4 counts faulty code. All 4 counts said bank 1 and 2 too lean. Which means O2 sensors need to be replaced? thanks in advance.

Will this Bluetooth Scanner work on a 2013 BMW X1?

Does this scanner allow u to reset the battery ?

Which actual device did you plug into the OBD slot? I’m trying to do the same thing you did, and I also just wanted a scanner for myself anyways. But I found the app, I just need to know which one to buy to plug into my car?

Thanks for the video. I had the service light come on after i recently had it serviced . I checked the coolant and its low! So thanks again . 😊

my code P0128 came up, the reservoir was almost empty, i top it off but the light still came back up. do you think i have to change the thermostat? i was told to change the coolant sensor on my 2010 530i

great vid. keep it up

Hey what do you know about a Footwell Module on an e90 ?

Did your light ever come on and needed to replace your thermostat. I don’t see another video I have same car as u same issue runs fine

What app did you purchase to use with your scanner? I plan on buying both.

BMW 530i code P2096 post catalyst fuel trim. What do you recommend that I do?

OMG you are a savior! Thank you so much!

one question don't you have to unscrew the bleed screw first then add the 50/50 coolant??

Thanks for the video you are a life saver.

Hey great video! Where can I find the link to the scanner please? Thanks

I have question what I should buy for obd tool diagnostic,,for bmw 328xi 2008,,cuz I just went to auto zone for borrow the obd tool his tryed but doesn’t work,,his said my car rare,,do u have recommended for me???

Did it get fixed just by adding coolant or did the light pop back up ?

I don't even own a BMW and I find these videos cool to watch

What's another good alternative for the official BMW coolant?

Do you know any free alternative apps to DashCommand?

What’s up Justin! I started following a couple of months ago and I find your videos pretty enjoyable and helpful! I wanna ask you a quick question: Do you know if there’s a good alternative for anti coolant other than the BMW dealership?

I know it will kill me but damn I really want to drink that coolant

You’re the best.

It leaks when the thermostat goes bad?

You always have the best background music! Hip hop of some sort. Reminds me of a tribe called quest. In your oil change video I begged on 2 separate occasions to please tell what's was playing in the background. It seems more rap/hip hop based. Do you generate them yourself? You've got great taste in music and cars man!

Hey where did you buy that diagnostic tool??

Thank u bro my service engine light is on on my 328i and I’m worried but that video helps

Hey Justin, does this device read the BMW codes?

Thanks I’m going to try this

Justin do you know if purify water like EVIAN would work for making the mix?, finding distilled water here in Mexico is a little hard.

Thanks,I like your videos the best

I got mine light on too... didnt check it but believe that very low outside tempreture is reason

Yeah on my 2001 330i engine check light came on last week, so my mom's friend did an oil change, and my mom check the coolant, thank god I bought some bc it was really low and I also had to replace rotors as well. But my EML light is also coming on when I turn on the car. So I unplugged my battery but apparently that does not work to reset it for BMWs unless you leave it off for certain amount of time. They say to just touch the positive and negative cords together for 5 seconds to reset the codes. I going to go to the guy I bought it from who is a mechanic to see if he can read the code for me this weekend if it doesn't reset.

Does this device work with every bmw? I have a 2008 328i

the Bluetooth scanner is working in UK ?

Do you have a link for the Bluetooth code reader you used in this video, or the brand name and where to find it? Thanks and very helpful video

Justin what model bmw do u have 330i?

My coolant float has broken off..if you over fill the expansion tank,will it just leak out?

Do you have link to Bluetooth scanner for iPhone??

My BMW X1 seems to be doing the exact same thing except I recently installed a new thermostat. I bought it with "Service engine soon" light on and ran a scan at the car lot and it came back faulty thermostat. Well after paying for the car and making it across town it ran pretty hot, however told me I could continue driving at the speed it had me at around 10mph. Luckily I was 2 miles from the house, got there and ordered an original thermostat for it, installed it, then SES light went out and has been fine up until today and the light came on, I scanned and it came back intake air sensor faulty and low coolant (but expansion tank was full of coolant from when I bled the cooling system a couple of weeks ago. It also came back a code bad circuit in the fan that it was continuously running but the fan hadn't been on because I haven't driven the car yet for the day. So sounds to me like old emmisons that weren't never corrected and deleted or everything is alright and I'm on panic from seeing the SES soon light coming on after replacing the thermostat and everything was good to go.

Good information.

I miss my e90 like I miss my kids! Cant wait to get back home to Nigeria and whip it!!!

Does this read BMW fault codes or only generic ones?

What the app name you use to see on your laptop

Dude your videos are the bomb... I've never seen better step by step explanations of anything like this before. I have one question though, I saw on the amazon page you pasted up here on the video for that Bluetooth scanner, which one would you recommend me with an iOS capability? Can you send me the link of the exact one that has bluetooth connection to an iPhone or iPad please? I would really appreciate having an opinion from an expert like you. Thanks.

There's a heating element in the thermostat. these are known to fail on the e90 series. changing the thermostat is the fix. this error pops up during winter time since the coolant is cooler then. then the car detects the lower temperature. just fyi. anyway nice video!

Did you have to buy the app in order for it to tell you the fault codes?

Can service engine come up as missreading, because of an exhaust

Hey i have the exact same code on my e90 325i 2006.I tried clearing it and it does come back.

What do you think about the Carly BMW diagnostic tool

I just bought a 2012 335IE I think it is a rock solid car . You are very good at explaining the maintenance procedures > It has 40,000 miles you got any advice for me

Makes sense, I replaced the radiator 2 weeks ago and I purge the system to fill it properly, tomorrow I will definitely check that. My scanner doesn't give me any codes, so I thought that the oil change can be the problem, but is not.

Mine came on and I checked that I need more coolant so I'm hoping that's all I need because I have not planned ahead

my service engine soon light just came on tonight in my 2003 325i and I'm kind of panicing :/ What should I do? Please help

i recently changed the coolant.i was told to add the liquid, go a few kilometers and then add again to complete

Can the diagnostic be used on a iPhone

What scanner do I need to check at home why my 2004 X5 Service Engine Soon light is on ?

THANK YOU

Nice

Can i buy the scanner at an auto zone ?

Hello Justin. I used the same app and device. I tried to clear the faults but the service engine soon light won't go away. Please help

Hey Justin, have you had the problem of your car vibrating, non stop? any idea of what could cause this? Thanks man.. awesome videos btw.

so I have to combine bmw colent with regular or ?

What I do when the passenger light comes on ?

So i have an 09 bmw x3 and when i turn the ignition it says service in 800mi. What do i do. There is no check engine light or check engine soon light and i just changed the oil last week. This only pops up when i first turn on the suv

What was the outcome?

That’s funny I got the same code what did you ever do?

Hey man how can I get that reader to detect problems like that ??
