[QUOTE="affan66, post: 23688, member: 65"] Folks, Once in a while, I have issues re-starting the car after refuelling. Doesn't matter when the fuel has reached Reserve, or half full or anything in between. Mine's a push start so the starter keeps cranking for a while but won't start. After 3-4 attempts the car starts like a breeze. Has anyone faced this issue? I did a search and found that the most likely culprit is the Fuel Ventilation Valve. ESS530i used to have this problem too but quite sometime ago. Not sure if he's still in the forum.Got DIY on replacing this thingy some more, refer here: [URL="http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/e39-m5-e52-z8-discussion/124891-replacing-fuel-tank-breather-valve-diy-peake-code-e8.html"]http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/e39-m5-e52-z8-discussion/124891-replacing-fuel-tank-breather-valve-diy-peake-code-e8.html[/URL] Anyone else can shed some light?
