BMW 318 (1984) – 93V015000

Vehicle recall defect – The MalfunCTIon Or Failure Of A Coolant System Component Results In Significantly Increased Coolant Temperature And A Resulting Increase In System Pressure.


BMW 318 (1984) – 85V058000

Vehicle recall defect – The Idle Control Valve Which Controls Idle Speed By Varying The Amount Of Intake Air That Bypasses The Throttle Plate Is Subject To Backfire Into The Intake Manifold. Such Backfire Can Damage The Valve And Cause The Idle Valve Plate To Remain Open. Consequence Of Defect: This Will Result In Abnormally High Idle Speed.


BMW 318 (1984) – 84V107000

Vehicle recall defect – Water Control Valve In The Heating System May Not Close Completely. Excessive Current May Begin To Flow Through The Wiring To The Control Valve Resulting In Overheating Of The Wiring.

BMW 318 (1992) – 94V037000

Vehicle recall defect – The Adhesive Material Of The Two Piece Throttle Body Heater Migrates Into The Circulation Chamber Causing Build Up Of Impurities And RestriCTIon Of Flow Within The Chamber. This Condition And Water Vapors From The Crank That Freezes At Low Ambient Air Temperatures Prevents The Throttle Plate From Closing As The Driver Releases The Gas Pedal, Causing Loss Of Throttle Control.

Vehicle recall defect – The MalfunCTIon Or Failure Of A Coolant System Component Results In Significantly Increased Coolant Temperature And A Resulting Increase In System Pressure.


BMW 318 (1992) – 91V219000

Vehicle recall defect – The Crankcase Ventilation System, Vented Into The Intake Tract Of The Engine At The Bellows Boot Ahead Of The Throttle Housing, Allows Warm Water Vapor From The Crankcase Vent To Condense And Freeze In The Colder Bellows Boot When The Ambient Air Temperature Is 15 Degrees Fahrenheit Or Less. The Build Up Of Ice Can Dislodge And Move Into The Throttle Housing, Preventing The Throttle Plate From Fully Closing When The Driver Releases The Gas Pedal.
