I did recommended BMW cycle drives but evap still no-go After browsing through forums, youtube videos, etc.

Evap system monitor inc code#

No code fault from scanner and only EVAP is INC. My 2001 e38 failed smog for OBDII not ready. I don't see anything else that I have not done.Old post but hopefully my experience will be useful. I will drive it today and make sure it drops below 85% and get back to you. I noticed however that fuel tank is still over 90%. My evap system not ready is the only one left on my 2001 E46. I already failed emissions, but it had 3 systems not ready, now I only have the evap system not ready. I have completed the drive cycle a couple times already, but to no avail, fuel tank kept at half tank. '99 740iL, no engine lights, no codes, engine purring like a kitten, lots of power across the powerband. There's got to be a source of solid info on OBDII out there somewhere, but I haven't found it yet.I hope someone can reply to this old thread, I've been having the exact same issue with my evap system not ready. How heavily modified vehicles pass, I don't know. It's not definitive, but it was the best info I could find on the subject.

I found info on some other makes while searching, and they all seem to be different in the details. JacksonMoto: I think that sheet is BMW-specific. I'll be digging into this more in the spring. I completed the drive cycle prescribed in the docs to the letter to no avail: system still shows 'Not Ready.' Does anyone have specific knowledge of the inner workings of how OBDII completes this check so that I can sort out exactly what's going on? Research has suggested that this is likely due to something in the valves or plumbing that make up the evap system. (Of course if that solves the problem, I'm going to seem quite the idiot, but I digress.) The procedure to complete this test is three minutes of idling on a cold engine - while I haven't specifically done this (I'm going to do it tomorrow just to be sure, but.) I'm certain that at some point in the last four months I've idled the car cold for three minutes. Basically I just want to understand the cause. According to what I've read, the car will pass NYS inspection with one check incomplete, so I'm not worried about that. There is no SES, no active or stored codes, and no driveability issues whatsoever.

Trying to figure out why my car lists OBDII status as 'Not Ready' due to Evaporative System Monitoring not completed.
