Hi thanks for this, I HAve had a look today and doesn't seem to be that hose it seems to be in really good condition

Update* Thanks for the suggestion nodzed, I have had a look today and it seems to be in very good nick. So since my last update I have bought a cranks sensor from BMW 100% genuine as a last attempt (£100). I put it on today the car seemed to be working okay then it started doing the usual...

Hi thanks for advice I think I will try that, this morning I just took out the exhaust cam sensor and replaced (even though old unit looked very new). I also whipped out the fuel filter and ran a test (all fine). I think if a crank sensor doesn't work then I will just trailer it to the nearest...

Hi guys sorry for inactivity I have been on holiday! So the current situation is, Replaced : Idle value, inlet cam sensor. Currently the car will start up perfect, run perfect for 10 mins but soon as the car gets warm it will splutter conc and cough out, and not rev - completely undriveble...

Anyone know any good BMW garages near leeds? The closer the better, as i have about 10mins (if that... of clear driving before the car will not drive for about two hours)

Hi guys, ShortieGal yes it hapoens whilst driving as well, sounds like the same problem as mine! Code reader was a complete waste of money (probably my fault for getting a cheap one). I'm currently torn between, just buying a crank and cam sensor (take the gamble) or taking it to a BMW...

Hi guys sorry for late reply work has been hectic recently! However I have spent some time with the car, first of all the code reader came I followed the instructions and it doesn't come up with any problems (admittedly it's quite cheap). However one component (pictured) has started crackiling...

Hey guys, thanks for all this useful advice, didn't expect so much help!! I have spent all morning cleaning components that were suggested, I bought some MAF cleaner and some carbon cleaner. Cleaned the MAF sensor, idle Valve, throttle body. And still idles the same. Does anyone know where...
