Steering stability issue on my BMW X1

Esteemed members, I urgently request your advice. This decides whether our BMW X1 volition beryllium adjacent kept successful the household immoderate more.

As a preview, this thread is astir my father's pre owned 2017 BMW X1 sDrive20D xLine, with a TwinTurbo 2.0 diesel nether the hood.

Now, the main point. Today, portion 1 of my father's regular drives astir the metropolis successful the evening, doing errands, helium stopped extracurricular a dhaba and accidently turned the steering instrumentality afloat to the near and immoderate more. Now, the steering did not travel off, but a connection came up connected the instrumentality cluster, saying 'Steering Stabilisation, Drive moderately', and connected the surface that automatic initialisation had started. The steering instrumentality locked itself, and helium had to power disconnected the car and enactment extracurricular for a afloat 5 minutes earlier the steering released. This was the archetypal time, connected the broadside of the road.

Next, helium came home, albeit with different specified connection connected a steep turning. After a fewer hours helium again went retired with maine successful tow this time, to driblet my person and his parent disconnected astatine the rima of their alley. We dropped them disconnected easily, nevertheless connected the mode to instrumentality connected a consecutive road, my begetter misread a pothole and jumped close into the pothole. The connection popped up again and the steering locked itself successful the mediate of the road. With large difficulty, helium unlocked the steering instrumentality by moving it backmost and distant respective times. This repeated itself astir 3 much times connected the mode to home, each clip helium turned the steering instrumentality much than a fewer degrees. Finally helium stepped retired again. And the steering released itself. He had to limp backmost location and present I am, penning this report.

This is simply a turning constituent successful our not truthful agelong ownership of this flawed beast and we are doubting whether to support this car anymore oregon merchantability it and get a 2023 Virtus oregon Slavia.

Mods, delight articulation with different thread if deemed necessary.

The lone mode to decently diagnose the contented is to scan the car for mistake codes, preferably with a BMW circumstantial scanner disposable astatine the authorised dealership / work centre.

I americium definite a fewer mistake codes person been registered connected the DME and that volition springiness you a clearer representation of what the contented could be.

From a casual speechmaking of your post, it appears that it?s an electrical contented with the steering rack.. possibly an contented with the rack?s adaptation? This is assuming that you haven?t experienced immoderate mechanical problems portion turning the steering wheel? Are determination immoderate sounds / noises that you whitethorn person caught from the from the beforehand axle portion turning the wheel? If not, past it could beryllium an electrical / adaptation related problem.

These benignant of errors / issues are besides generated erstwhile the wheels / tyres are highly debased connected aerial oregon severely disconnected alignment.

Let?s anticipation that a elemental re-adaptation of the steering rack volition resoluteness the issue.

All the best!

BMWs propulsion those errors erstwhile there's thing incorrect with the suspension oregon steering components. It could either beryllium a mechanical responsibility oregon a failed sensor (ABS sensor, Steering space sensor etc.). My Aunt utilized to thrust an older BMW X1 successful the UK. Her car besides had the aforesaid error, which was resolved by a replacement of the ABS sensor.

None of these are precise costly to fix, particularly astatine an FNG. Since you notation an relation error, I americium inclined to deliberation that the steering strategy indispensable person suffered immoderate benignant of mechanical trauma, causing the EPS centrifugal to get damaged.

Your champion stake would beryllium to person the BMW trader oregon a German car specializer store scan the OBD for immoderate errors and physically inspect the worldly underneath the car. Worst lawsuit script - You mightiness person to regenerate thing costly similar the EPS motor/steering column/rack. However, If you are lucky, it could beryllium thing insignificant similar a shot associated oregon immoderate inexpensive sensor somewhere.

Either way, getting it fixed makes a batch much consciousness than replacing the car.

Do support america updated astir the diagnosis.

By mechanical POV, thing different than the said occupation of steering getting locked erstwhile hitting potholes astatine precocious speeds, oregon turning much than fewer degrees not imaginable owed to the car locking the steering instrumentality that I cognize of. Keep successful mind, that this is Kolkata we are talking about, truthful wholly avoiding potholes oregon not making crisp turns is not possible, either technically oregon practically.

Anyway, convey you @suhaas. My begetter has gone to the BMW workshop, and they are saying this occupation is communal connected galore BMWs. successful information 4 much cars are successful their store for the aforesaid issue. Don't cognize what to accidental anymore.

Also, carnivore successful caput that earlier immoderate of this happened, helium had waded done a spot of water,
thickness arsenic overmuch arsenic an iPad lying horizontally(sorry for the bizarre example).

My begetter has visited the BMW workshop. They are saying successful this rainy, pothole filled roads of Kolkata, these problems are common. In fact, 4 much cars are astatine their store for the aforesaid issue. Also, if it is relevant, my begetter had waded done a spot of h2o earlier immoderate of this happened, thickness arsenic overmuch arsenic an mean iPad lying horizontally.

Anyway acknowledgment to @suhaas and @Sanidhya. Will support the thread updated.

In that case, it could beryllium thing truly tiny and trivial, similar an ABS sensor oregon thing similar. Getting that replaced and a speedy re-adaptation / calibration of the steering should hole the problem.

Dear suhaas, not BMW but an FNG ran an OBD scan and nothing, not adjacent a hint of a occupation showed up. My begetter contacted the method enactment idiosyncratic from wherever we bought the car and they are besides saying that their contented is communal successful galore premium cars and told america to debar driving successful water. Thank you for the proposition but I bash not deliberation determination is immoderate accidental of america keeping this car immoderate more, with repair prices that tin ascent up to 3 lacs.
