That may be true but a few months is less time than is reasonablewater always gets in, given enough time
The OEM ones stay dry internally for years.

Took her for a drive to try to power up battery. It's that time of year, short hops 3 or 4 times a day to feed lambs, and the stereo has given up the ghost . So a beautiful day for an hour's driving up and down the pass.

That shows that a BMW mile is much shorter than a averageWhen i looked on first the other day, said 9250 miles to next service.. started engine today and message on dash 'service required'
That’s nothing to worry about that’s it’s basically dumping the excess air when you don’t need the extra power any more, if you really gunned it going forward and really did quick gear changes you would hear it aswell when it was boosting high and then needed to dump it when changing gears.made a video, get me!! on reflection, i think its nothing to worry about? turbos are still a new thing to me

Reset the oil service today, that was easy enough.C
Could be on a dated schedule also
It also reset the accumulated soot in oil counter, whatever that is
My dpf soot level is still unchanged at 12g
This really doesn't sound right to me. Broken/fake/bypassed sensor? Anything i can check? Don't want it biting my on the ass

I should stop worrying about mpg!! Managed to get 23.2mpg from 56 litres brim to brim that's petrol territory

Rebuilt my EAS Valve block, some of those o-rings were hard and brittle and the diaphragm torn. Just need to change the height sensor and recalibrate (and do the other 25+ outstanding jobs !

How long have you driven it for since you reset/ regen’d it? In my experience some cars with certain things will take a long long time to register new levels for certain things. For instance my sisters c4 would take around 4 days or so of lots of driving to register that there was enough ad-blu added to the tank for it to take away the low warning.

I've done about 3500 since i got the car, and had the diag for about 2000 miles. I've never requested a regen via diag and reset the oil service yesterday.
In those 2000 miles only figured out how to get live data in the last 1500. Since then soot grams (12g) and remaining volume (0) haven't changed
I just struggle to believe that every time i check, the grand just happens to be the same and why isn't the car in limp mode if there's no volume remaining?
Ignorance is bliss etc but I'd rather know what I'm up against

Given what I've read in the recent epb thread, i recon i should have a look at mine. Do they wear out or is it a case of maintenance.. clean/lube/adjust?
Keeping them adjusted is the key, or just dont use it
. They dont really wear out as they are only applied at stop under normal circumstances.Think they recommend 50K cycles then cables need doing.
