Does anyone know what this is? Car was programmed and had to get emission and inspection for the year. I had JB4 on it and catless DP. I had to swap them off and then I reset all the modules back to factory before taking to the shop. After driving it for over 500 miles with everything stock the EVAP and O2 heater readiness still wouldn't set. Any info on what's going on or what needs to be replaced is appreciated. Happens after the car is shut off or if the car has been sitting and is unlocked and everything is off. Thanks

I had it looked at and ISTA says nothing. Was looked at by BMW tech. Only thing he said was somehow the car is in an open loop. Something could be shorted to ground or power wake up signal on the fuse box.

Still don't know how to solve this issue so any help is appreciated

Finally figured this out. PIN 20 was in slot 18 on the CON3 connector going to the FEM. Hope this helps anyone else if they have this issue. Thread closed.

I have basic KOMBI and they do it as well. Even the speedometer. I have to check that FEM connector....

Happened from my dumb ass not installing it correctly when taking out my awron vent gauge. This was a self inflicted user error unfortunately.
