SITUATION
When diagnosing an illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) and/or a different issue, the following
faults may also be stored in the Digital Motor Electronics (DME).
Fault code
213A2B
Control module
DME
Fault code text
Increment wheel adaption faulty
This situation is not associated with any drivability complaints and only affects vehicles built with a Factory
I-level of 19-07-500 and later.
CAUSE
An unfavorable DME diagnostic calibration may cause the fault code to be stored. In most circumstances,
this will cause the MIL to be illuminated.
CORRECTION
Program the vehicle with the latest version of ISTA Next
PROCEDURE
1. Connect the vehicle to a BMW
-approved battery charger (Refer to SI B04 23 10).
2. Program the vehicle using the latest version of ISTA Next to the appropriate I-level shown below:
For all 6-cyliner engines (B58C, B58D, XB1) use ISTA 4.21.3x (expected to be release February 2020,
pending verification) or higher.
