KV6 Engine Fault

avaminit · 17th July 2011, 14:54

Hi Guys,
I have a ZT190TT which is powered by a BMW lump.
I have a fault code for 'coil bank D' but does anybody know what cylinder this refers to?

Don't know the fault code I'm afraid , but please clarify which engine you have

If it is a kv6 , then you don't have a BMW engine . If someone has swapped badges or engines , then you have the BMW diesel which doesn't have coils ???

As chris said the zt 190 doesn't have a BMW lump

I would say it is a kv6 as he states its a zt190?t and if it was a bmw engine he would have a glow plug problem as your right the only bmw engined zt is diesel,so with that inmind its a rover lump,

I thought it was BMW as the electric have the odd BMW markings.
It is a 2.5 V6 lump.
I'm pretty sure its a faulty coil but not sure if its one of the rear bank or front bank.
My code reader just says coil bank D?

Sorry i can't be of any help to you on your problem,as you say parts of your car are bmw but they only used there own 3 series engine in the diesel all petrol models are rover engined,i would have thought someone like Bigruss or marinabrian may be able to tell you which one of your coils are at fault,cheers

I accept that it must be a rover engine V6 but ctill confused what coil bank d is,,,,,can anyone tell me if its from or rear bank?

I'm fairly sure ,but not certain , that "D" refers to "4" , and that this is the middle cylinder on the rear bank ( 1,3,5 on front and 2,4,6 on rear ) .
Hope this helps
