Hey everyone! So I have a 2013 BWM 535xi (it's a 11/2012 build if that matters!) and I am getting a Check Engine Light, and the code I am getting is P147D. I've tried looking this up and haven't seen many post about it saw one on the F30 forum but the person didn't really explain what he did to get rid of it! Now I know this is a EVAP related code, I've been told this could be either the EVAP filter, EVAP peak detection pump (DMTL Pump) EVAP Canister or finally the EVAP purge valve, the last one I don't know exactly where it is. Am told it is near the Intake in the engine bay! I know the other three are in the rear driver side wheel well. Will greatly appreciate if anyone could help me with this! I currently have ESYS downloaded but am downloading ISTA+ as well currently if that will help me figure this out!

Remove rear passenger tire and well cover that leads to Gas Tank intake pipe. In there you will the DMTL that is held by 2 screws if I remember correctly. Make sure to replace the valve assembly with Filter. The filter gets dirty and blocks ventilation. Very easy job of about 30 min max including removing and putting back the tire.

Thank You! Also it seem this code seems to show up as a Permanent code which I've seen is common for EVAP/Emission codes? How would I go about resetting those? I've heard I would need to do some sort of drive cycle reset?

I am not too sure. I personally used Rheingold to reset my error codes.
