AFFECTED VEHICLES

Vehicles which require this Recall Campaign to be completed will show it as “Open” when checked either in AIR, the “Service Menu” of DCSnet (Dealer Communication System), ISPA Next or Warranty Vehicle Inquiry.

 

SITUATION

BMW AG is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall (effective March 2, 2022) on certain Model Year 2006 2013 BMW vehicles that were produced between January 19, 2005 and October 9, 2013.

This issue involves the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve heater (“blow-by-heater”). The blow-byheater which is designed to prevent the engine’s Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system from freezing can internally short circuit. Irregularities in the manufacturing process could allow moisture to occur near the blow-by-heater and lead to the short circuit. In extremely rare cases, this could increase the risk of a fire.

Similar recalls were conducted in 2017 (17V-683) and 2019 (19V-273) for Model Years 2006-2011.  Most of the vehicles in those recalls are in this new recall, and now includes Model Year 2012 and 2013.

Vehicles with the N52T engine are no longer affected.

The Recall Notice and Q&A have been attached for further information.

 

CORRECTION

Retrofit additional circuit protection to isolate the circuit of the blow by heater from the other vehicle systems.

 

PROCEDURE

Install P/N 12 51 5 A6A 0E2 “Cable Harness Repair Kit” as per Repair Instruction 00 72 067 “Retrofitting component protection and checking function of angle fitting”.

Or:

  1. If the heater has already failed, then replace the blow-by-heater (positive crankcase ventilation heater elbow) asper Repair Instruction 11 61 390 “Removing and installing / replacing elbow fitting.
  2. Install P/N 12 51 5 A6A 0E2 “Cable Harness Repair Kit” as per Repair Instruction 00 72 067 “Retrofitting component protection and checking function of angle fitting”. Always use the recommended special crimping tools described in the instruction to ensure the repair is made correctly. See special crimping tool information below.

And, if necessary:

Replace additional components if damaged because of the short-circuited crankcase ventilation blow by heater. This may include the intake manifold, crankcase ventilation hoses and or the electrical harness as consequential damage.

 

Required Tools for Crimping:

Handle 83 30 0 494 159 (61 4 321) was distributed in the Crimping Set P/N 83 30 0 494 158 via the Automatic Tool Shipment Program in 2001.

The Handle P/N 83 30 0 494 159 can also be purchased separately.

Crimping tool 2 467 488 was shipped via

Automatic Tool Shipment in late June 2022.

 

Electrical Harness Identification Hints:

Repair Instruction 00 72 067 “Retrofitting component protection and checking function of angle fitting” indicates the splice cap is blue, this is not the actual color of the splice cap.

The picture has been edited to highlight the splice cap with blue coloring (1).

PCV Splice Identification Hints

E60 & E61 Vehicles:

Locate the middle harness (1) in the e-box.

Unwrap the tape from the harness (2).

 

Under the tape there will be several splices with orange colored wire (1).

Select the splice that has exactly 6 orange wires in it.

Any splices with more or less wire will be the incorrect splice.

 

To identify the correct wire a digital caliper must be used to ensure accuracy. Use the digital caliper to measure the outside diameter (1) of each wire in this splice.  Do not separate the splice.

In this example the correct wire is measured at 1.83 mm.

Wire outside diameter specifications:

1 wire = 2.15 – 2.40 mm – Incorrect wire

1 wire = 1.70 – 1.90 mm – Correct wire

4 wires = 1.35 – 1.55 mm – Incorrect wire

Select the wire that measures between 1.70 – 1.90 mm (1) and continue with Repair Instruction 00 72 067 “Retrofitting component protection and checking function of angle fitting”.

Chronology :

Please refer to BMW Part 573 reports assigned NHTSA Recall IDs 17V-683 and 19V-273 which involve Model Year 2007-2011 and Model Year 2006, vehicles respectively.

On Feb 21, 2019, a field incident was reported involving a thermal event in the engine compartment. At the time, it appeared to be an isolated incident. In 2020, (Apr 29, Dec 10), similar reports were received. . Each of these vehicles had received the previous recall remedy. Vehicle inspection findings were inconclusive.

In Jan 2021 (13th, 18th), two field incidents were reported. On April 30th, a field incident was reported. At that time, thoughts focused upon the possibility of a service repair issue. The field continued to be monitored.
In Sep (11th, 29th), two field incidents were reported.

In January 2022, the engineering investigation included a detailed parts collection and analysis. Recall parts from field vehicles, which had the remedy performed, were returned for testing and analyses. Similarly, recall parts from stock were retrieved for testing and analyses. Ultrasound, microscopy, and x-ray techniques were utilized to closely examine and compare the parts.

Supplier production and process records involving recall parts were reviewed, including the injection molding process, and the production rate ramp-up of recall parts in early 2018 at the implementation of 17V-683. By the end of February, it was determined that supplier production and process issues could cause unwanted production variation and, over time, lead to PCV valve heater damage in the field.

On March 2, 2022, BMW decided to conduct a voluntary recall for vehicles involved in 17V-683 and 19V-273 and implement a new remedy. Also, in an abundance of caution, BMW has decided to recall Model Year 2012-2013 vehicles which were manufactured with the same engine and PCV valve heater configuration.

BMW has not received any reports, nor is BMW otherwise aware, of any accidents or injuries related to this issue.
