BMW 7 Series: Checking Fuel Delivery Pressure (N20, N53, N54, N55, N63, N74)
Necessary preliminary work:
Connect BMW diagnosis system.
IMPORTANT: Lines are under pressure!
Wear protective goggles and gloves.
Fuel can emerge spontaneously at high velocity when the fuel line is released!
Recycling:
Catch and dispose of escaping fuel with auxiliary materials.
Observe country-specific waste disposal regulations.
NOTE: Remove circlip (1).
Unlock and detach fuel line (2) to fuel tank from fuel line (2) to high pressure pump.

Insert special tool 13 5 270 into disconnected fuel line.
Screw onto special tool 13 5 270, the special tool 11 4 310.
Screw IMIB 100 bar pressure sensor (1) on the special tool 11 4 310.
NOTE: As an alternative to the 100 bar IMIB pressure sensor (1), the 25 bar pressure sensor can also be used. For this, screw on special tool 11 5 364 instead of special tool 11 4 310 into special tool 13 5 270. Or directly screw the pressure manometer from the set of special tools 13 3 060 onto the special tool 13 5 270.
Establish fuel delivery pressure. Read off fuel delivery pressure on IMIB and compare with values in diagnosis system.

Valet parking mode
Concept
In the valet parking mode, the Control Display is
locked. The operation via iDrive is no longer possible.
E.g., this mode can be used when the vehicle is
handed over for valet parking.
General information
In the valet parking mode, it is not possible to
change vehicle settings via iDrive. P
Fixed Components
Some of the components that were modular in the Car Communication Computer
are now integrated into the
CIC as solid state components.
In the event of defects to some of the components, it may be necessary to
replace the entire head unit after
submitting a PuMA case.
