Secondary Faults:
z
4530 charging pressure control, control deviation
z
429A charging pressure control low pressure stage, control deviation
CAUSE
Clogged DPF
CORRECTION
Chemical cleaning of DPF. Refer to SI B04 05 17 for tool information
INFORMATION
This information only concerns diesel particulate filters which are clogged up with soot, where the
regeneration cannot be initiated, either periodically in the vehicle or manually using the workshop
diagnosis system (forced regeneration).
A DPF that reaches the end of its service life, is completely loaded with ash (non-combustible
mineral substances) and therefore creates a high counter pressure, CANNOT be regenerated
using this cleaning method!
An increased DPF load always represents an effect and not a cause! The cause is usually one or
more of the following:
z
Faults in the air or fuel system
z
Faults in the cooling system
z
Unfavorable driving profile (short-distance driving).
PROCEDURE
Note: Before initiating this procedure verify the following potential causes (indicated by
fault memory entries) have been eliminated:
z
Preheating system problems
z
Faulty coolant thermostat
z
EGR, charging pressure, air mass detection, exhaust turbocharger control flaps and the
vacuum system problems
PREPARATION:
For vehicles where the oil is thinned with diesel fuel, perform an oil change.
REPAIR:
1. Perform diagnosis with the current ISTA version.
https://www.bmwtis.net/tiscode/cgi-bin/bulletin.aspx?sie_path=/tsb/bulletins/htm_store/397... 3/7/2017
Page 3 of 5
Are both fault codes 480A, 481A (E-series), or 245700, 258300 (F-series
), stored with
the status "currently not present"?
YES- Go to step 2.
NO - Go to step 3.
2. Request and perform DPF regeneration with the aid of the ISTA service function (ABL
manual selection) –
M57Y engine
Drive | DDE | Particulate filter | Regeneration of the particulate filter
Diesel particulate filter: Regeneration ABL-DIT-B1363_D6CSFREG
N47T/57T engine
Drive | DDE | Diesel particulate filter | Regeneration of the diesel particulate filter
Diesel particulate filter: Request regeneration ABL-DIT-AS1365_D73CSFRE
Was the regeneration successful?
YES- Reassess the vehicle to determine if the problem has been eliminated.
NO - Go to step 3.
3. Perform a chemical cleaning according to REP 18 31 700 "Clean diesel particulate filter".
Caution - Since repeated chemical cleaning can result in permanent damage to the
filter ceramics, this method may only be used ONCE!
The cleaning operation must always be documented in the Service Booklet and in the vehicle
records!
4. Perform a regeneration by constant–speed diving, following recommendations in SI B18 03
10 as well as the functional description (FUB) "Service instructions for a diesel particulate
filter" - until the status of the fault memory changes to "currently not present".
