Characteristic curve and setpoint values

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2017 BMW X3, 2016 BMW X3, 2015 BMW X3, 2014 BMW X3, and 2013 BMW X3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The fuel pressure information is sent to the engine control across a signal line. The fuel pressure signal for evaluation fluctuates depending on the pressure. The measuring range of approx. 0.5 - 4.5 volts corresponds to a fuel pressure of 0.1 MPa (1 bar) to 1.1 MPa (11 bar).
