Air mass deviations in the event of sooting
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.
In the event of sooting in the intake area, the measured air mass will deviate more from the calculated air mass as the engine speed increases (measured air mass too low).
