ok guys, i am having some problems right now with the sprintbooster. The results are amazing and everything that is said about it through the first like 8 pages is true, but I have a 530i SMG and have the automatic version with the "A" on it. I installed it first and it showed a bunch of errors, so I changed it and now it works, but the check engine light is on? Any suggestions. Again, I have a 2007 530i SMG. And i just checked again and it is the "A" version, for automatics and not the manual one. Thanks guys.

 

Hmm....did you check to see if any of the pins are bent? Other than that, I'm not sure.

 

By "CHANGING" I meant that I flipped the sprintbooster ( the way it is plugged in) and it got rid of all the errors, but only the check engine light was on. But the good news is that the sprintbooster works

 

would it matter if the pins were bent? I think one of them was...

 

Rodybmw and my530i had posted earlier in this thread about bent pins causing some warning lights to go on. Rody said he had similar issues and straightened the bent pin and everything was fine.

 

ok, let me go check and i will post asap

 

OH MAN, what would I do without this forum. YOu were right, i unbent one of the pins and like magic, no more error message! Thanks

 

That's awesome!

I was a bit nervous clicking on the link to see your reply. hahaha Glad it worked out and YES, this forum and all the great folks sharing knowledge is definitely AWESOME!

 

Nice job Tony. Good work on helping him out.

Glad you like it houbmw! Isn't it great?!?!?!?! Congrats and welcome to the SB club.

 

I borrowed a SB, i can feel it respond better, but it jerks a alot at around 2- 2.5 rpm.
