Failure of the component
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
If the tank vent valve fails, the following behavior is to be expected:
- Fault entry in the engine control unit
- Emergency operation with substitute value
General notes
If the oxygen sensors before the catalytic converter in cylinder bank 1 and cylinder bank 2 do not supply any plausible values, or a malfunction is diagnosed with both oxygen sensors, the tank vent valve switches to emergency operation. In emergency operation, the flow rate of the scavenging air depends on the engine speed and throttle valve position (lower than during normal operation).
