e92 m3 won't start
I have a 2010 m3 that I was driving a few days ago, parked it and after about 20 minutes went to start it to drive home but wouldn't start. all of the electronics came on fine but the car wouldn't even try to start. I replaced the starter, replaced the battery and replaced the positive battery cable because of corrosion. the recall wire to the fuse box was done back in 2016 which would the car to not start but I don't think that's the issue either since it has been done. Not sure what my cars problem is if anybody has an idea I would appreciate it.

There really is no backstory other than what I said, Was driving on the highway pretty normally and the car drove fine all the way to the house, no lights or anything came on the dash and turned off fine, went to start it up and leave but didn't try to crank over I could hear the fuel pump and a clicking noise when I tried to start it but like I said I changed the starter because it has happened before but that wasn't the issue.

Try:
Forcing good grounding between engine and body. Clamp a booster cable between body and engine. Not too hopeful as it won't even try a crank. Try your second key, in the odd case it's an issue with immobilizer. No too hopeful as you hear your fuel pump engage. Not sure if this engine has a spot to reach the starter to measure the voltage without tearing everything apart. But you want a voltmeter there to see if there is any power at the terminal when you try to start it. Run the codes maybe it will help point in a direction. Sorry this sort of stuff sucks but I'm sure some sensible problem will show it's face. |
