2010 BMW 520d - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

The fuse for the headlights is not in the boot. The fuse is usually in the fuse box under the bonnet. The fuses are listed on the inside of the fuse box lid as small symbols. The symbol for it looks like the capital letter 'D' with small parallel lines next to it. Headlights are usually fused as Left side and Right side so you will need to check 2 fuses. If both have gone off it is more likely to be the Relay. This is also in the engine fuse box. Try this. Get a helper to sit in the car. Open the bonnet and remove the fuse box lid. With the ignition ON an the engine OFF get your helper to turn on the headlights. Lower your ear to the fuse box and listen. Get your helper to switch between high beam and dipped beam a few times. If the relay is working correctly you should hear a 'click' every time he uses the switch. If there is No click the relay is probably bad. Relays are cheap and easy to replace yourself. With the ignition OFF and the keys out, grip the relay with pliers and pull it straight up. They are fitted tightly so you will need to pull harder than you think. To fit the new one, line up the pins and push it firmly down.

Put a Scanner on the Car and you may find out there is an issue that needs to be addressed (Low Transmission Fluid) and is trying to Protect you.

Replace the rubber blades???Please elaborate in detail for more help

It would have gone into "limp home mode" Should have gone for diagnosis ASAP. Oil change will not fix it. You need to have the car scanned for fault codes.

If you have a multimeter remove and test the fuses for continuity (OHMS) as fuses can look OK but they have blown. If your replacing fuses ONLY replace the with one of the Same colour and Amp rating.

Yes, Bimmerfest Forums are a great resource. https://www.google.com/search?q=BMW+325ci+vacuum+hose+diagram ..

Question edited for clarity. changed your Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) into Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV), and added some punctuation to make real sentences. Your car is run by computers, the computers have diagnostics and will tell you what's wrong. You can't guess faults like you have. A Professional Grade Scan Tool computer can diagnose all the computers, modules, sensors and systems in about 40 minutes. It can even record what happens and what goes wrong as you are driving! https://www.google.com/search?q=mobile+auto+electrician+near+me ..

https://cararac.com/blog/bmw-no-crank-no-start-problems-and-solutions.html This will give you a few ideas of what to look for. Make sure you are getting battery voltage to the fuse box.

To turn off HDC on a BMW, all you have to do is press the HDC button located on the center console. The button will have an image of a vehicle going downhill with a speedometer above it, and you'll know it's off if there are no lights illuminated above it. If you ever want to turn the system on again, just press the button again.

Since you fixed the fault by scan advice and was ok and on testdrive another limp mode came up, just check again with your scan to see what is the possible cause for it. Probably the crank sensor.

6 years different and a different series? If only life was that easy! Some BMW have a mechanical pump driven by the serpentine belt, and some have an totally electric powered pump. Just buy one for the model you have. https://www.google.com/search?q=2012+BMW+535i+water+pump or https://www.google.com/search?q=2006+BMW+330i+water+pump Rock Auto are a good suppliers, have images and different makers and 'qualities'. https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/bmw,2006,330i,3.0l+l6,1431850,cooling+system,water+pump,2208 ..

Check the basics first. Is battery fully charged? This is the most common reason for a no crank, no start. What exactly does it do when you turn the key? Nothing at all, no lights, no 'click' as you turn the key. A slow lazy crank?
