At my wits end Bad Idle M42 Initially I had a high idle. I'd take that high idle back now. After changing numerous vacuum hoses and ICV the idle was normal but still poor gas mileage. But drivable. I go away a couple months ago for a weekend and come to a rough idle after warming up. Random CEL. I initially made my own hoses from the ICV - tree - fuel injectors. Thinking maybe one hose fell off I replaced the set with a factory set. Same problem. Replaced 02 sensor. Same problem. Next I'm replacing the fuel filter only because it's probably never been changed. Car also sounds like a diesel at idle once warm. It's barely drivable at this point. I've spent $1000 in parts replacing broken plastic parts. I still have suspension to go. If I can't get this working soon it's leaving my driveway. Either to a buyer or to a junk yard. __________________ ...steven BMW CCA #146825 1996 BMW 328ti • 2003 MINI Cooper S • 2016 M235i www.bmwcca.org |
