Hot-film air mass meter (HFM)
E38, E39, E46 / with M47, M57
Situation:
1.
In the BMW dealer organisation, the hot-film air mass meter is often replaced
unnecessarily on vehicles with M47 or M57 engine
The diagnosis procedures for finding the cause of a customer's claim regarding the
response of the engine and the vehicle's performance are often only used if the
replacement of the HFM has not resulted in the complaint being rectified.
2.
Since November 2001, the BMW Parts Service has only supplied the air mass meter
version fitted to vehicles with M57 engine from January 2001 and on vehicles with M47
engine from September 2001.
This means a revised procedure for retrofitting.
Affected vehicles:
E38, E39, E46 with M47 or M57 engine
Procedure:
In case of customer complaint, the DDE fault memory should first be read
Note:
Hot-film air mass meters sent in through warranty/goodwill can only be processed
in conjunction with the diagnosis report.
In countries where return is not obligatory, the diagnosis report should be filed in
the vehicle records for reliable auditing.
Proceed as follows if the fault memory entries or the nature of the complaint indicate an
HFM malfunction:
A. M47 engine with DDE 3.0
With the DIS tester, work through test module "air mass meter".
Note:
The test module can be found in the function selection on the DIS tester under
=> Complete vehicle
=> Drive

The air mass meter must only be replaced if the nominal values specified in the test module
"air mass meter" are not achieved and an instruction is given to replace the HFM.
