    I have a 2002 325i couple weeks ago tried changing the spark plugs and it start misfiring crazy and running rough I can’t drive the car because it will just stall. So far I just changed the plugs and coils I checked for vacuum leaks and replaced a 2 broken hoses in the back of the manifold but...

    So I recently got tuned by revmatch and my car “ran fine” before I got tuned but he said the car relearned the map so it’ll cause it to run how it’s supposed to run but basically when I come to a stop it stalls and when I start the car it idles smooth I was wondering what you guys think it could...

    I own a 2001 330Ci. I recently rebuilt the engine as a first project and I finally have 0 check engine lights, along with no oil, coolant, or vacuum leaks that I know of. However, every time I fill up on gas, the car will start and then sputter a little until it stalls. If I put it in 1st and...

    Hello, so my 2005 320d automatic has this not so funny problem. I just bought this car and one day while driving it just lost power, no throttle response, and just stalled. It started right back up, but sometimes it would jerk a little while driving. I drove back fine and was driving for some...

    I've been having issues with my 2002 330xi (manual, 210000 km) recently. I need opinions on whether or not this makes sense. Backstory: Driving my car and it starts stalling at low speeds. When I get home, the code P0339 pops up (Crankshaft Position Sensor A). During this time whenever I start...

    So today sometimes when i would start the car it would idle really rough and shut off when i put it in gear. I would have to turn it off and on a couple times then it would be fine. Does anyone know why maybe?

    So I decided instead of doing a back pressure this time I would buy a cheaper inspection camera from harbor freight and take a look inside my cats to visually diagnose my bank 1 cat is bad. This worked out great and I had great results. Definitely recommend the cheap AMES inspection camera for...

    Hey guys I have a 2002 320i and I've had stalling problems with it. It stalls when I am at a complete stop and give it throttle to take off. If it doesn't stall it has a dip in revs and has a wee fit and then takes off but is lacking in power. When it doesn't stall it also lacks in power mainly...

    Hi everyone, I purchased a 2000 323ci almost a year ago. It is an automatic M54TU with 163k miles. I have made many repairs and replaced a lot of the engine components to include cooling system items, sensors, thermostat, wires. I have finally cleared all of the codes, but one of the last things...

    Hello, I have a 2001 330i with 280,000km. The other day, I started my car with no issues and let the engine warm up for a few seconds as usual. After a few seconds however, the car completely died on me out of nowhere. When I went to start it up again, it took a few seconds (roughly 3 seconds)...

    My e46 320ci with the m54 engine has had this problem awhile where the idle is kinda bouncing and if i rev the engine it will stall when "coming" down to idle again. It stalls very easily when trying to "take off", the idle is better if AC is turned off. Replaced CCV including O2 pilot mod...

    Hey guys! I've got an e46 320i '01 and maybe about 1/3 times when I start the car it takes so long for it to crank and when I for example park and switches between first gear and reverse it sometimes stalls. When it does this wierd start-up thing it has no power when accelerating. And when I rev...

    Hello, on my 2003 325i touring I have recently changed original power steering pump because of it’s broken driving shaft. I’ve replaced it with new aftermarket one and turned the wheel back and forth to get system rid of the air, however the steering still feels heavy once at idle and when...

    I have a 2001 BMW 330CI that honestly runs amazing. I put a new fuel filter in and its been running really smooth but it has been stalling while in idle. Its happened before a couple times but it was very rare. It just didnt like idling and I really didnt think about it, since I thought maybe it...

    Hi all, I have a 2002 330xi. It has been running fine but ever once in a while the service engine soon would come on after filling up with gas. After a couple starts the light would go back out. Yesterday the car took longer to start than normal and the service engine soon light came on. It...
