Lezz go! Notification squad!

“Always carry a code reader if you own a bmw.” I felt that one.

I'm happy you showed the "fail" video. It's a more true representation of how this kinda stuff goes. Not every bolt comes right out. The first fix isn't always the one you need. Not every project gets finished in one weekend.

The struggle is real bro! Props to you for posting all your struggles. That is why we love your vids!!!!! TY❤

Greatest feeling ever! Finally solved that god damn EML problem! I FEEL YOU

The dreaded EML light!! Don't get down on yourself, troubleshooting that is always a tough challenge but you got it all sorted which is what matters!!

dude!!! i literally had this issue happen this morning and was about to get the TPS sensor so i decided..nah let me search a bit more and came across your vid and it saved me a bunch of hassles, well done buddy all the way from south africa!!!!

First off , my hat off to you and thank you for posting every video even when you don't get the fix right off. Showing the struggle and keeping it real I respect you and your work you are my wife and I go to on the 330i 2004 bmw we are trying to fix for our niece.

“LET’S GO!!!!!” Hahahaha that smile on 8:43 though, $1m smile right there. Fire vlog brutha, glad to see this thing 100% after all the trouble!

Hey - thanks - I just had EML light go on with very rough idle. Code reader "P1632 - throttle valve adaptation; Adaptation conditions not met." I did the Throttle Adaptation Reset that you call out at 7:32 in the video and that WORKED LIKE A CHARM!!! Thanks!

had this issue on my e46 m3 as well and i was glad it was just the tps sensor haha. love the quality ass content my dude! you earned my sub

That's the greatest feeling. Knowing that your car is back to 100%.

that smile was so cathartic, can't wait to reset my TPS adaptations as well.

You gotta be kidding me I tuned up my E46 and still i couldn't get rid of this EML until i watched this video. Thanks dude

Good vid Geno. Glade you find the solution. Like the photos shoot 😎

Bro you’re a champion..this was exactly the problem I had, misaligning the throttle body clamps. Problem solved, God bless 👍

Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts had the same issue 🎉

When the eml light turned on, did you have a a rough idle and not even 5 mins it will shut the engine off? What type of scanner you use? some scanners can’t read bmw’s.

I have a regular 2001 330i with the EML light on all vacuum leaks fixed and it no longer cranks would this be a similar fix to mine

Bout time Brodie. Who ever unliked got issues. Smh. Keep workin 🔥🔥

I’ve been dealing with the emp issues for a couple months now on my ‘04 325i. Changed fuel injectors, fuel filter, spark plugs (just cause) and o2 sensors. Still have the issue. I guess TPS is next step. And if not that then it’s onto the throttle body and then the dreaded transmission solenoids 😭😭 send help

Thank you very much it works for me as i was following the introduction

My EML light has come one twice and both times after a minute or so the DSL light comes on and the car goes limp. Restarting will reset it. I have not checked the codes yet but was wondering your thoughts. It is a M3 E46 S54. I would appreciate any advise. Thank you so much!

Good morning I have a E46 Sedan 1999, with EML lite on, is missing fire I don't know if is trotlebod this is killing me

So I woke. Up Went on google Typed in “e46 m3 Eml light in Sport “ This video came up While I’m still waiting for my tps sensor to come in the mail I thought let me just try what he did ( I recently had my throttle body cleaned) I look and my clamp looked the same way his did I move the clamp so it isn’t rubbing or touch anything …. Hop in the car Let it warm up I did multiple pulls in sport all the way up to 6000 rpm in 4 th gear No eml light I’m going to keep you posted hopefully that fixed it completely

have a 2002 325xi and EML light is on the dealer told me I need a new main wire harness......so could it just be a TPS sensor? or clamps lol that would suck if it was just that simple.

Thank you bro. I'm having the same problem

Hi how are you my e46 m3 is coming eml and limp mode no power at launch : electric gas actuator : control deviation And signal throttle potentiometers 1 and 2 different you can help me plz

I fuccking love you, I had karbonius airbox, during oil change I wanted to make sure everything was looking good with the clamps, so I changed position and it was hitting the throttle actuator. What a dumb mistake but thank you

I know how good it feels! It's happened to me. great great great ✌️👌✌️💯

You’re AWESOME! Thank you

Close up on the part switched will be helpful. How was it to replace? Difficult ,not so Difficult..

Bro I need help please 🙏🏻 I’m Located in the San Fernando Valley if anyone is willing to help me…. So I’m having the same exact problem with my 2001 BMW 325ci. Can’t seem to find the TPS sensor location in the vehicle. I know the M3 Version has the S54 Engine and mine has the stock version so therefore can’t seem to find that sensor!

Great job fixing your issues.

ty for during your viedo saved me alot of time and arravation now i can go fiddleheading you saved my day

Can you repost that peddle fix process that guy sent you. Would like to have a copy for my references. Thank you.

I am getting P0120 code TPS A circuit for the Eml light - would it be just the sensor ? Any leads would be helpful

Where can I order the TPS sensors

Great content 👍🏽💯

Let me say this I wish I saw this video first. This has made me swear by KZfaq diy videos. Holy shit. The amount of money I’ve wasted and this was exactly the situation I was in moved the clamps reprogrammed and so far so good. Mechanics are the biggest waste of time and are all thieves. I went through sensors throttle actuator pick up the car same problem for them to have “never seen that code before” and then they wanted to change out my engine harness and when I asked why no answer when I asked well what’s causing the harness to be bad no answer. For them to gaslight me like I didn’t tell them exactly what my problem was and not to see that. Literally the throttle would get stuck on the clamps. Thank you is how I’m going to end this rant. Thank you.

vale, pero cual ha sido el problema o lo que fallaba es que no he entendido nada.

Also have this issue, thanks for the post mang

GREAT JOB WHAT WE ALL NEED TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT, BACKTRACK WHAT YOU DID BEFORE PROBLEM STARTED. THANK!

I am literally experiencing all of the problems that you guys have lol. I've been stressing about it because I really want to buy some recaros, but maintenance comes first ig :,(

I have the same problem on my z4 until now I couldn’t fix the problem

I have the same issue on an SMG M3. replaced all TPS's in cluding throttle paddle and same thing, it stalls while coming to a stop. Any idea? Thanks.

damn! that had to be so frustrating to find out xD at least it didn't cause any major issues 👍

So how did that work for you

Mine won’t turn on at all with the eml light

Hola saludos, tengo el problema también, le cambie el ELM,y sigue igual,será que no funciona porque es remplazo,se le limpió el trotel también, ayuda,por favor....GRACIAS

When my EML comes on, I'm going through the emissions testing.. all pass but when (I think) the catalyst test is being done, I get the EML plus MAF sensor fault code. MAF is brand new.. I've been battling this for over three years.. so yeah, always need a code reader when owning a 20+ year old BMW..any advice?

I got a friend mechanic he told me you shudd change all 2 of them at the same time and clear the faults

Mrb benim BMW E46 320i m52 aracım eml arızasını çözemedim yardımcı olurmusunz

Thanks champion for the imformasion

Finally i couldn't understand that how did you fix it ? Could you please tell me ?

Lol the spongebob walking sound

Thanks bro I had the same problem I was about to burn 🔥 the car down 😂

I got the eml, traction control, and brake light on my dash please help

I changed the tps but eml problem still so what could it be? Should i change the throttle pedal?

Duuuuuude....I had this issue last year when I put in a light weight clutch kit in my M3. Funny thing is, I've had those bolt type clamps on my car since 2013 when I did a starter motor and out of dumb luck I got every clamp on without them being in the way of the throttle linkage, I wasn't even paying any attention to how I put them on haha. Then after the clutch install the EML light came on and I had no clue what the issue was. Took the manifold back off to check the lower TPS, it was good, put the manifold back on, and no more EML even after 4500 rpm. Soooo...manifold off again to replace the idle motor since my idle would dip and stall periodically, and suddenly the problem was back....figured it out after reading some forums haha. Damn those clamps. Now I jus need to figure out why my idle still dips, and why I have hesitation under hard acceleration. Your vids are well done! Much better than mine!

Havin the same problem on my 05 e46.

Bruh my EML light is on as well but I have no clue what it is ?

Good video. It's very helpful to include the failed attempts. It shows process of elimination. We all experience that. KZfaq should not reflect a perfect world when it comes to car repairs. It erodes confidence towards a channel.

THE RESEARCH SHIRT!!!!

Yeahh dope

Change the tps on the throttle actuator

Bro I got my e46 in the shop now I wish I watched this first I know they are about to tax me smh

Unfortunately it didn’t work with my car( after including a stove in my car, EML are appearing again and again

I jus got mine fix it was my throttle body

That's for the reset

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I have a 325i giving eml kight after 4k rpm gonna try this

This is why new models after 05 are not as good as 2000 to 2005 3series.

Puedes hablar en Español porfavor, digo no te ves estadounidense...

Now can you make a video fixing it only??? To much bla bla bla…….

Get the point less talking

Me coming to on your search for more videos because this is happening to my e46 🥹 🥲
