F30, 2012 n47
Posted: Fri Feb 06, 2026 12:37 pm
I just bought a supercharged F30 N47 2.0D.
roughly 97,000 miles
I parked my car about three years ago.
The motor spins, but the car won't start; the rev range is about 280 to 300 rpm.
Not even a cough helped with the easy start.
No fuel is released from the feed line that links to the fuel filter when the ignition is turned on. (The lpfp module concealed beneath the passenger seat's side trim, or the lpfp that is suspected)
So, knowing that the gasoline pump isn't priming, would the car still attempt to start with easy start? The fuel pump is operational when the diagnostic is turned on. And is there a way to prevent the glow plugs from turning on at the same time as the fuel pump? No heat is emanating from the exhaust as I turn the crank.
Perhaps a malfunctioning crank sensor is the problem.
The next thing to do is to see whether the glow plugs receive electricity within the first five seconds of the ignition turning on. Anyone have any strategies for starting the engine? I simply want to know it runs.
Codes for errors not present
