Hi Guys,

My 8 Series 850i wont start and I have checked all the common culprits. (Started seems to be ok etc, Fuel Pressure is ok, Electrical seems to be ok).
Yet I cant get it to start.
The car has been standing for a few years.
Have you guys got any advise or tips on what I need to look for.

Maybe try on the BMWfanatics forum. There are quite a few mechanical guru's that might be able to assist.
 
Petrol in system probably turned to jelly, you need to flush the injectors etc.
 
Ag just change the flux capacitor.I can get a second hand one for 15k.
 
oil probably also needs to be flushed.

Is it swinging?
 
Low battery would prevent it from starting as ecu voltage drop as starter swing.
 
It's going to cost you big time, but put a couple litres of petroleum and let us know how it goes.
 
Yeah no idea why it was standing for a year. If I had an 850, that beauty would be out every weekend...

First remove the battery and get it checked to see if it's dead or not.
