BMW 330e eDrive not working at all
Hello everyone,
I have a 2017 330e and it has been charging and driving fine on max edrive and auto edrive with no issues. But since almost 3 days the car just stopped triggering the edrive. I can’t enable max edrive when the battery is at 100% with a message saying “Max eDrive not available. System request.” and edrive is not working in traffic or at stop signs as it should be. There is no errors showing in the instrument cluster or the iDrive system. Any hints on why is this happening or how can I diagnose it? Tried to pull our error codes using an OBD with Car AutoDoctor but no luck since it’s not showing any error codes. Thank you for any help in advance! |

My car is actually a salvage but with very minor damages and I have imported it from the US so its warranty is void. I have only had it for two weeks now, I'm having a speculation that this is happening due to the fact that it had sit for almost 4 consecutive months without running due to sitting in the auction + shipping time in the ocean. Do you think it's just a 12v bad battery that needs to be replaced? |

There is technically no start/stop battery in the 330e since it will just switch to electric once you brake to 0 at a traffic lights and then you continue driving electric until the engine kicks in. Maybe this battery is actually for converting to edrive and because it's going bad i'm having this issue?

no it's a stop start battery.
test yours see if it is ok. as per the other thread, the starter for the engine is another aspect of the car that can fail, of the car detects a fault with the starting of the engine it will leave it running. the car doesn't know you don't plan to use the engine on your next trip |

Replace the aux battery first. Follow step by step from my thread and I guarantee it gets solved. Like you said the car just sat for too long.

2018 330e not going to edrive after full charge
I just purchased a 330e last week and after driving for 4 days, eDrive would not kick in or engage...just the gas engine mode. After reading these threads, I hope it is just the auxiliary battery. Going for a diagnostic this week. I do not think the dealership will cover cost of battery and install under their 90 day warranty but I am kind of bummed out that this should happen after only 4 days of buying the car. Dealer is about 40 miles away and they are not answering emails or phone calls.

If its the auxiliary battery you will hear clicking noise in the car on passenger side and after few times the engine will not start.

Hello, I have a BMW 330e 2016.
The car turns over but does not start, drive train fault, and I change both batteries but it still does not work. I see too many videos and it says the small 12 volt battery, which I change but it still does not work. Other videos say EME, fuel pump, crankshaft sensor, and i have so many codes |
