Just to close out (hopefully) my experience with this cel, here was my experience. BMW ended up having the vehicle for approximately 3 months. A rental was provided for essentially this whole time. This was apparently because NY salt had destroyed a lot of parts, so they were stuck ordering a...

I'm in a 2014 also. The gas engine has a 15 year 150k miles warranty on it. Got approved by BMW NA today for the warranty work :D Check into your warranty. The battery and gas engine have special warranties on them that extend past the vehicle warranty.

Reviving this thread with a quick update. CEL came back on after inspection. Replaced the cooling relay hoping that would clear it. Ran the engine to try and clear it and within a mile of running the engine shut off and said to contact service. I couldn't get it in to my guy because he's out of...

Well I've got good news and bad news. Codes are currently clear, so that's good. But unfortunately the guy that did it isn't willing to detail what he did to fix it, so thats not great news. Here's my guess. Replacing the fan doesn't seem to have immediately fixed the issue, so I wouldn't start...

Full vehicle scan was performed yesterday. Should have more information today. Looking like it's related to the P0480 code. Possibly a lack of communication with computer for cooling system.

Damn and that's for P14A4 not even P14FA. Worth noting is I'm using Torque also to diagnose, so maybe this is a code that Torque is interpreting and not actually correct? I'm having a friend with a bit better diagnostic tools take a look at it tomorrow so hopefully he will have a better answer...

This is promising. You're correct in that the fuse I mentioned is for a relay, so maybe this relay is bad? Do you know if its a relay that can be purchased at an Auto Zone or if its BMW specialty. Also, regarding P14FA, where did you find the OBD2 description for this code? I haven't been able...

Interesting PDF, thanks for adding that. It did not get rid of the P14FA code. I've had that code for a long time and it tends to be intermittent so I haven't been focusing on it. I need to fic the P0480 before the end of month for inspection, so we're gonna find a solution to this!! I have...

Any updates on these issues? I've got the same two codes, p0480 and p14fa ( thanks for providing what this one is!). I replaced the front fan behind the radiator this weekend because that's what BMW recommended but I still have a historic p0480 fault. Going to try running the rex to get it to go...
