In detail: do-it-yourself bmw e60 repair from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.
For a confident ride in a modern car, all electronic systems must work properly. In a car from BMW in recent years, several control systems and communication with the driver have been used. One of the most common is the Car Communication System (CCC). Using this unit, the driver controls all the functions of the car, can carry out diagnostics, configure multimedia functions. Repair of CCC E60 is a complex and complex process, which should begin with a complete diagnosis of all parts of this complex.
Visually, damage to this module can look different. This lack of loading, just a black screen of the dialog device, constant reboot, freezing. More unusual problems, such as poor performance of touch buttons or inadequate system settings, are also possible. Repair of the BMW E60 CCC block includes a number of diagnostic actions to determine the cause of the failure:
mechanical damage - most often occurs during an accident or other similar troubles;
breakdown of the data entry module, inability to make settings in the control system;
failure of the software elements of the firmware, you will need to work with the software;
breakdown associated with poor-quality electrical contact, failure of dialogue sensors in the system.
All these problems can occur both on cars with a sufficiently high mileage, and on new vehicles. Sometimes the operating system just stops loading for no reason. Before repairing the CCC BMW E60, the technician diagnoses and finds out the causes of the malfunctions. This could be a hardware or software problem with the device.

Dialogue control systems, on which almost all communication between the owner and the machine is tied, are taking on more and more functions. In the event of a complete failure of such a device, the driver actually cannot control any function of the vehicle. Correct repair of CCC on BMW E60 begins with diagnostic work. In the process, the following actions can be performed:
full check of the system of sensors and controls associated with the device in the car;
checking and reinstalling software, flashing CCC, resetting settings to standard;
replacing the block itself with a similar one or with another version of the dialogue installation from BMW;
installation of simpler firmware, prepared for operation in the realities of Russian conditions.
Any breakdown of this unit can become critical. There are often no problems with the basic functions of the machine, but no comfort element will work with the settings you want. Therefore, such malfunctions should be repaired as soon as they arise. Sometimes BMW owners ask to reinstall the firmware simply because CCC is too slow.
If CCC BMW E60 does not turn on for you, inaccurate settings occur, contact the Techcentric service station. We work with cars of Bavarian origin and carry out all work with high quality. The specialist will determine the problems associated with the dialogue control, check all the sensors, make computer diagnostics and remove errors. You will then be able to use all the installation functions again. For more information or to make an appointment at a convenient time, just call us.
Probably many have encountered such a problem when the CCC block stops loading and reaches the BMW logo and reboots. So this is the fate that has befallen me. And I decided to try to fix it myself. Let's start with the removal. The process is simple. So I'll be brief. Remove the decorative wooden plank starting from the right edge.Next, unscrew the 2 self-tapping screws that hold the climate bar, cut off the climate. We unscrew 4 self-tapping screws that directly hold the sss block itself. We translate the selector to position D and take out the block. We disconnect the wires and carry them to the table)))
Hello everyone. Like many people, when the heat came, I faced such an unpleasant problem as the constant reboot of the CCC. I did not find any particularly useful information on the Internet, everyone practically shouts that they need to buy a new one. But I came across such a topic as heating the motherboard with a mounting hairdryer. I found the most problematic chips on the motherboard and went to my friends in the garage to solve this problem. Actually what was needed: a hair dryer, a torx screwdriver. A little foil to cover the capacitors, and a couple of people for intimate conversations))
When the head is removed (I won't write about the removal, it's as easy as shelling pears, there is a lot of information on the internet), you need to unscrew the bottom cover. Under the cover, the motherboard is immediately visible, we snap off the RAM, remove the cables from both sides and calmly take it out.
Next, put the motherboard on a flat surface, cover the capacitors with foil and start. On a hairdryer, I set 450s to warm up on both sides, naturally allowing the board to cool down after warming up these places:
But someone heats up the entire board. He warmed up for about 40 minutes, probably, let it cool down normally and put everything together in the reverse order, connected it and ABOUT MIRACLE! It all worked))) Honestly, I did not think that it would work, after reading skeptical comments and posts about it.
Let's see what happens next, but in general I want to buy something very CIC, so I'm thinking of collecting money))
Rotation speed = 0 rpm => Perhaps the fan is not connected
OK. We connect. And he is generally silent! Diagnostics is also silent. Conclusion: in ССС E70, the fan connection is implemented on other pins. What, I have not found. Maybe those who make money on this and know. Most likely, due to constant overheating, some kind of microcircuit has nevertheless been sealed off. I see no reason to re-solder, since from the beginning you need to deal with cooling.
The voice control also fell off. A trifle, but not pleasant.
The second problem: It occurs ONLY on e60 in which HI-FI music is installed. There is no such problem with Stereo and Top HI-FI music. After installing CCC E70, the mid-bass was silent. GENERALLY! We began to figure it out. Here is a high-fi connection diagram on the e60 It can be seen that direct signals are sent from the CCC to all the speakers, except for the mid-bass. They pass through a small amplifier in the trunk Outputs from the CCC: 13 - signal wire for switching on 10 and 3 - left sub (through the amplifier) 9 and 4 - right sub (through the amplifier) there is no diagnostics, which explains the silence of the computer. The Hi-Fi amplifier amplifies not only the mid-bass channels, but all other speakers as well. 4 pairs of wires + and -, two front and two rear channels leave the CCC E70. And after the amplifier, all the other signals appear, including mid-bass. The connection diagram for MASK and logic is the same at 100. The solution was found by feeding the channels of my e60 amplifier from the outputs to the rear speakers. ССС pins X138124 and 8 - left rear1 and 6 On the Internet, I came across a description of such a problem several times, but did not attach importance to it. Now I know how to solve this and can help someone.
In other matters, for today I removed this CCC from my car, replacing it with my own from the E60. fan, voice control and mid-bass are working properly.
The steering racks on the famous "boomers" are those integral parts that require regular complex repairs and maintenance. Fans of a "sporty" driving style are especially affected, but this should not be surprising, since the steering mechanism in such a situation is exposed to excessive loads.
Of course, the most important thing in a renovation is its cost. We did a little research and called both local "Kuzmichs" and normal salons. The cost is about one - starts from 5,000 rubles, ending with 90,000 rubles.
And if you order the racks on Ebey yourself and give it in the salon, you can keep within 20 thousand rubles.The rake itself will cost 15 thousand rubles, and the installation will cost 5 thousand rubles.
To carry out repairs on these models, the steps should be similar. First, the rail is dismantled and cleaned of the existing dirt. After that, it is visually inspected and tested on a stand that artificially creates working conditions.
The repair itself may consist of replacing:
faulty parts,
bushings,
seals,
as well as surface grinding.
At the end of the work, the rack is mounted back, hydraulic fluid is poured and tested. Sometimes such repairs can be done by yourself if the violations are minor. When sanding is needed, a service center is indispensable.
Raise the car higher to make it easier to work.
We drain the liquid.
We remove the wheels and unscrew the rods with levers.
Let's raise the engine.
We unscrew the pillows and stretcher.
Then we remove the rail by disconnecting the hoses. It only goes to the right.
We unscrew it from the traction rail and wash it.
On the E60 fives, the most sore spot is associated with the rail:
Because of her, appear clang and knock when crossing irregularities. The repair consists of a complete disassembly, replacement of bushings (and it is advisable for domestic realities to install not factory ones, but self-made ones with reinforcement), replacement of lubricant and fluid.
An example of a new and clean steering rack. Focus on them - it's better to pay a little extra than to buy the part again later.
Here is a video, maybe some tricks will help you:
We drain the liquid, then remove the rail. In general, we do everything according to the photo gallery:
Before removing the centering plastic sleeve from the worm, remember its location. Remove the retaining ring and unscrew the worm cap and nut. Dismantle the worm. From the right rack and pinion end, remove the flange that has the gland and bushing. Mount the new parts in the same way.
A typical BMW E30 steering rack is as small as the car itself.
After removing the rail, knock out and unscrew the cover equipped with an adjusting screw. The bushings are pressed in by the factory, so you need to pick them out. Better to change to homemade (from caprolon) sliding fit.
To fix them, drill a hole in the housing, cut the threads and screw in the retainer. After installation by punching, fix the cover.
Drive on good roads! No other way - a German made a car specifically for high-quality highways, not ours ...
Therefore, BMW enthusiasts should think about the consequences of ill-conceived races on rough terrain. So that.
Comments on article 5, leave yours:
I still didn't find a man, but your instructions helped my e36 boomer a lot!)))
Thank you for the detailed instructions with photos, otherwise I was tormented with these slats. Of course, when I bought the 2004 X5, I knew that I would run into some problems, but not with the steering wheel -))
Thank you very much for such a clear instruction, thanks to you, I refrained from going to the car service and saved a lot of money, I recommend everyone to repair the steering racks on their own - there is nothing complicated about it.
As they say, the eyes are afraid, but the hands do =)
in general, it is not safe to carry out such repair work yourself, it is better to take the car to a MOT or to some kind of car service, than later it turns out that it is three times more expensive to restore what you have thought up there than a simple repair of rails
Everything about BMW 5 Series repair with your own hands: step-by-step instructions with photos, error codes and decoding in Russian, electrical diagrams.
Many connoisseurs of the famous BMW 5-ki with E39 body sooner or later face the problem of replacing shock absorbers and coil springs with new ones. This is primarily due to driving safety. But you should not rush to the service station right away, since the article will tell you how to do this with your own hands, without resorting to.
The braking system of a car is one of the main components of driving safety. The brakes should be revised regularly. Before we learn how to check the BMW E39 brake system ourselves, let's figure out what it consists of.
Owners of BMW E34 cars do not always enjoy a great ride in their car. The units and assemblies of these machines are not eternal, so they have to be periodically repaired. Some, noticing a minor breakdown, immediately run to various service stations, where they spend large sums of money, others try to do it on their own in their own garage. So .
Any part in the car can break down over time. Wheel bearings are no exception. Almost any owner of this car is capable of diagnosing and replacing hub bearings on a BMW in the back of E39 with his own hands.
According to the BMW E39 service manual, an oil change must be carried out either once a year or after a run of 15 thousand kilometers for gasoline engines and every 10 thousand for a diesel engine. Such recommendations are valid abroad. There is a small postscript in the manual: if the car is operated in difficult conditions, then the engine must be replaced.
Today, one of the most popular BMW models is the E39 of the fifth series. Despite the fact that it was discontinued in 2004, these cars can still be seen in large numbers on Russian roads.
The fourth generation of the fifth BMW model (E39) was equipped with three types of head units (GU) for the audio system. In the basic configuration, the GU had a radio tape recorder and a radio receiver. For the business configuration, a CD player and a radio broadcast receiver were installed. A multimedia system with navigation was installed in the BMW E39 with expensive options.
Quite often you can hear complaints from the owners of the BMW E39 model (as well as E53) that the engine starts to overheat if the air conditioner is turned on, especially in hot weather, standing in a traffic jam. This occurs for several reasons.
The BMW E39 car, like most modern cars, is equipped with an anti-lock system (ABS). Its main task is to prevent complete blocking of the wheels when braking in an emergency. The anti-lock braking system improves vehicle control when you press the brake pedal sharply, especially when cornering and during ice conditions. The ABS includes the following components: hydroelectronic.
Some vehicle owners have probably faced a situation where the car does not start, and the dashboard lights up and the starter turns the engine. There can be many reasons. The most harmless can be a malfunction of the fuel pump. He is responsible for supplying fuel from the tank to the engine. Almost everyone can check the operation of the gas pump. In this article .
