SES Light & Smog

e46mpwr · 10-21-2020, 06:10 PM

My SES light in my 335d has been on for a quite some time. The car runs great but I've had to PNO it and let it sit in the garage for the past year not being able to pass smog. I'm willing to spend some money to get it sorted out, but only a couple thousand. I haven't checked the engine codes in a while, but IIRC, it was glow plugs and DEF pump related.

I'm not sure what to do about it anymore since it'll likely be more than a couple thousand and wanted some thoughts/recommendations from folks in this group. I'm hoping not to junk the car but it may end up going that way since I'm in Cali.
