E34 540i idle hunting

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

So as of today, when I was coming home from work I found the 540i was running a bit rough, parked it idles a little low, rises to normal then drops back down at random intervals quiet quickly. When I accelerated slowly, it felt like it was surging forward. At highway speed, everything was fine, though it seemed a little down on power. After about 10km's it came right, as if nothing had happened but still felt a little down on power, and am getting about 14.0L/100km where as I normally get 11-12.

Can anyone suggest what the problem may be? Airflow meter perhaps?

Thanks,

Nick

A scan by a technician with a brain should be able to give you the right answer. I can look at it for you tomorrow if you like.. just give me a call 2722546...in the morning
