2011 BMW 328i xDrive

EaglesFan33 · 11-16-2024, 02:03 PM

Hey everyone -

New forum member here.

I have a 2011 BMW 328i xDrive N52. She only has 113k miles. I took her for PA inspection today and I had 4 codes pop up. 2C31, 2A00, 2C6B and 2A82.

I love my car but I’m at the point where I don’t know if it’s worth tossing more money at these issues.

Curious what would be your diagnoses of the above 4 codes? Would it possibly be replacing the cat? Or am I looking at potential engine issues?

Thanks in advance!

I recommend heading to the dealership or an independent that specializes in BMW. Could be O2 sensors. Could be cats. I really doubt you have engine issues. The N52 is one of the best BMW engines you can have. Should be able to put 250k miles on one, maybe more.

Not to mention the Chassis Stablization Error that just showed up today..
