Hi i have a BMW 316i 2000reg E46, lets start from the start i had the EML come on and off i had the car checked and there was a lambda senser failer. had this replaced the light continued to come on and off. then i started to get loss of power and shuddering when pullking off the lost off power would go then come back once the car had warmed up for around 5 mins it would be fine. i changed the spark plugs, the lambda senser, the HT leads, the air filter, the oil filter and had a cam shaft senser replaced all in all around £600.00 worth of work. the car now keeps going into limp home mode after all that it still wont work the only code i have is the DME code the garage is now saying the DME needs changing does anyone agree with this?
Quick update i have only changed the front lambda sensor and not the rear im not sure how much trouble the lambda sensor would cause ie go into limp home mode. __________________ This post was auto-generated based upon a question asked on our tech article page here: Pelican Technical Article: BMW DME Motronic ECU Swap / Repair |

This could be a problem with your throttle body or an associated component. Check your DME for fault codes using a BMW scan tool. Once you have the codes, you will have a good place to start.
The oxygen sensor should not turn on the EML light. - Nick |
