The end has come...
My time in the max has come to an end:(. One morning I was headed to work and it took a few more cranks than normal to start, it started, drove to work. Time to leave work it wouldn't start. Ordered a new ckps, it fired up. Didn't drive it for a few days, then took my daughter to piano lessons, it wouldn't fire up. Finally started after messing with the ckps. Parked it. Tried to drive it somewhere it wouldn't start. Changed ckps multiple times, filed down the ground, switched other ckps, coilpack, and ecu. Not getting spark. I did electronics in the military and always worked on my car. It never left me stranded until this year. So we have to part ways.
I will probably do a mild part out, nothing major since I live in apartments and you know how those managers are. Parting out the mods. Turbo feed pipe and down pipe will stay on the car. I would give up the whole car minus the wideband and water injection kit, since those will be used on the next project. |
That's too bad about your max. I know I wasn't happy when we had to let our 4th gen go. It was parked on the street and someone reaching for their phone slammed into it.

My condolences go out to you.
I hope I will never see the day. She's been good to me so far. Had her for 2.5yrs and she at 275k. |
sorry to hear brother, I know you can get it back to working or running but it's modded. It's gonna take a good diagonistics to figure. I hope you can keep it,but it's your choice. Good luck brother.

Obviously the CPS isn't the problem.
Did you just throw parts at it or did you trouble shoot, check for codes, used a scanner? You "did electronics" in the military, (not sure what that means) did you measure the CPS and check the signal and supply voltage? Had you done that, you would have only played with it once. Parting out a car simply because it ran yesterday and didn't start the next is foolish. |

505 is a bad IACV or circuit fault.

Either leasing a 2013-2014 Veloster Turbo or get a 02-03 BMW 325xi and redo the cooling system.

Pull the ignirion switch and try starting with a screwdriver.

I heard those bmw's are nothing but headaches, but it's your taste buds.. whatever you decide to do keep us informed.
I guess no other car will be as reliable as the good ole 4th gen... |
