I havent got the bottom of this yet... I dont think its the exhaust

Im in the UK so the car hasnt got an ODBII port, but the throttle x5 trick doesnt work to retrive the codes (maybe this could point to the tps...) but would a failed TPS throw up an engine check light?

Can someone comfirm that the 5x throttle trick to get codes works on the M44 engine? (especially the UK ones)

Im going to see if I can find a friendly with a BMW scanner.

I will let you know how i get on.

Thanks for the input, its appreciated.
