Cars developed a misfire so thought I’d see if it’s throwing any codes, had a look under the steering wheel and can’t find the port? I have another e46 and it’s there but not on this one

Do these have them? It’s a 2002 model

They moved to the under steering wheel location in 2000, so it should be there, but try looking for the round one under the bonnet.

Mine is in the drivers side footwell near where your right shin would be. There is a plastic cover over it so potentially easy to miss. It just folds down.

Mine is a 2002 car too.

That's very odd.

Mine is definitely under the steering wheel to the right (have used it plenty of times irked)



What do you have there instead?

Just found it, it was there

Previous owner must or broke it and it was pushed up so had to take the trim around it off and pull it back down
Thanks :8
