N13 114i Drivetrain issue + fuel filter confusion
Hello,
I have a problem on my 114i F20 (N13 engine) from 2012. It is tunned stage 1 and converted to E85 flexfuel. When I start the car, the engine starts to throttle by itself until it stabilizes at idle. I called Shiftech and they told me it could be related to a bad quality of ethanol. When the engine stabilizes at idle, I hear a sort of clicking noise. Also when I drive sometimes I get the "drivetrain malfunction" error. I changed the spark plugs just before chiptuning, and they're about 30,000km old. I'm thinking more of a clogged fuel filter because of the ethanol, as I've never changed it, or maybe the injectors or the coils. As for the fuel filter, I have a problem, I can't find any indication about its location or reference on my model. When I search the Mann filters website with my vehicle information, I find this filter : https://catalog.mann-filter.com/EU/e...0000000148685) but when I look in the documentation I find this : https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=16_0871 I can't find out whether my car has a fuel filter inside or outside the tank, as there seem to be several versions. Any ideas? Thanks |
