M54 Cranking more than it should

[markob]

My m54 520i cranks more than it should. engine works normaly when started but if ussual car cranks 2 times before engine start my sometimes cranks 5 times before engine starts. I dont se any errors that will be related to the engine so i dont know what problem is. If starter would be bad it would longer cranks all the time before it starts. This is not the issue.

Ive read that crank senzor would be ussualy problem?
Some ideas?

Ive tested some more. If i turn key to second position when fuel pump is working presure i got 5 cranks, if i start engine from key poition 1 it cranks in second time, so i can say than fuel pump also is not issue? Can i test fuel pump in inpa?

It seems that from key position 1 engine starts in 2 cranks (but not always), rather than from position key 2 when fuel pump is working i ussualy get 5 cranks before start.

Are you saying the engine fires after cranking five times? Once running, are you having any problems?
