Start the car. Log idle.
Cold start hpfp should be about 2400psi
LPFP usual 70ish psi
Once water is over 40°C hpfp idle pressure will be 700ish psi

Got the car started up. Rail pressure was like 4500 on cold start, car only ran for a minute with a pretty lumpy idle and then died. I'm familiar that these cars have a junky rain tray that needs to be replaced. So I'm guessing bank 2 injectors have gotten watered out and started to rust ? Sound reasonable ? Gonna get a new Raintray and probably injectors . Anyone run into similar issues with injectors? I'm in Minnesota so we see alot of rain and snow

If you want to work clean. Pull the Injectors and inspect them.
On youtube you can find videos for checking if injectors are leaking. That is really important to know how fucked you are.
Usually rain should not bypass the seal and affect injector work. Lumpy idle may come from leakiing injectors.
This is getting difficult now. If you have stuck open/leaking injectors or similar you may encounter oil dillution and fuck your bearings in really short term.
Drain your oil check it for particles, check your oil fiter, send the oil to analysis. Doesn´t cost much.
Check your plugs and check if they are wet or whatever. Post pictures.
Don´t run the car. Ask me how i know about that shit.

i guess most are the same or equal.
In the past i had an e39 30d and during driving out of the garage some of my injectors went defect. Car was runnnig like shit and on 4 or less cylinders. Diagnosis was indeed defect injectors.I don´t know if on a diesel an injector goes bad and doesn´t inject fuel.

Lol now that we know its a m57. And I verified that the high pressure fuel pressure is meeting its target and I assume the low pressure pump is working. With the injector codes I think its safe to say the injectors are bad ? Or i hear there could be corrosion in the dme
You might try posting on e90post, there is more M57 action over there. or on a few of the m57 facebook groups. They seem to have knowledgeable people on them. For whatever reason I find facebook M57 people/groups more knowledgeable than e90 post and what I can find on the forums searching etc.
The injectors are known to go bad when the rain tray drips onto them, as it sounds like you already know this. Speaking of which I really really check out both of my rain trays...wife's m57 just threw a map sensor code yesterday. Today I will clean the map sensor and get all the junk out of it. Should fix it.

Everyone says get a new rain tray. I always assumed you could just slap on some RTV or similar to stop it dripping. It's also quick to see if the sealant worked by using a hose. It's a band aid fix but you never know it could last a long time. Especially if you don't have to remove your rain tray which I never have on either E70 after 5 years of ownership. Been surprisingly reliable in that aspect or should I say that specific area of the car
According to service bulletin SI B13 01 12, water leaks from the partition on models produced up to May 2012. Suggests that all 13s have an updated part and that the new one you buy will be the 'upgraded' leak free part. Mine are both 2011. So both probably fucking leaking!

Yeah I may try that but mine looks so clapped it may not even be worth messing around with it. I think my big mistake was removing the aucistic cover. Paired with my bad water tray it was a disaster waiting to happen. Hopefully someone can learn from my mistakes lolEveryone says get a new rain tray.

Fuck E90post....buncha kids that don't know shit.
George is very knowledgeable...perhaps Torgus as well....but the majority are kids that think their MHD stg 1 N54 is lightning fast! And stock turbos can't do over 18psi.
Hey Torgie
Deep thoughts. By Jack Handy. I mean SlowE93I would like to say something helpful, but I have no knowledge on M57.
So I will say nothing, although that is still saying something.
Hope that helps
