It seems that as soon as it hits 2K it will lunge forward and be fine from there on. And it only seems to do this when it gets to operating temperature (the temp needle is pointing straight up). When i cold start it in the morning it runs as smooth as can be until it warms up. I also notice really bad when the a/c is on. If anyone can give me some advice it would be greatly appreciated.

While it is between 1 and 2K it sort or stutters like it is misfiring or missing a cylinder. And it ONLY happens when it is at operating temperature and is more noticeable with the A/C on. I just replaced the plugs and checked the wires thinking that was maybe it. But no such luck there. Maybe it is the injectors, but thats not something i know how to check. I am not exactly a master mechanic. | | | 06-29-2005, 03:05 AM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2004 Location: MD/VA/DC Posts: 834 | i have a 1995 and it happens the same every morning leaving to school it will do the same some days my car will pull hard and othere days wount pull at all what i was thinking that the O2 sensor,EGR valve,or the PCV vavle could be bad becouse my 97 runs great and the EGR valve is clean and my 95 is leaking from the valve and you can see oil all around the valve and seeing how my car have over 170,000miles the o2 sensor need to be replaced thats what i think could be bad when the fan turns on car starts ti idel and when i have the A/C on idels bad at my school i gave my car a 3 step fuel system flash and that helped my car alot still idels but very little not like befor and runs better go to any NTB and pay $90 and get the 3 fuel system flash-the flash lasts about 1hr to do and get the oil cleaner you pour a bottle befor doing a oil change runs the motor for 5mins at idel and change you oil that worked too help the idel | | | 06-29-2005, 03:44 AM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2005 Location: Pismo Beach, CA Posts: 500 | When my 318 wouldnt pass smog, it was doing the same thing. Would run like crap, and all of a sudden get a good boost. They fixed my timing, and my Throttle Position Sensor. So it may be one of those 2. But being that we dont have distrubutors to adjust the timing, it might be narrowed down to 1 lol __________________ Joe, In San Luis Obispo E30-> '96 TI sport -> E30 -> '96 TI | | | 06-29-2005, 06:36 AM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2003 Location: cary, nc Posts: 2,259 | my o2 sensors were just changed not too long ago... dont know what EGR and PCV is...maybe you should add it to the glossary? but yeah, same thing...sometimes it takes offf...sometimes it takes a while to get going...and then jumps way up in RPMS how much is it to replace a throttle position sensor... __________________ 1995 318ti Active Pioneer Speakers [] Aluminum Billet door locks [] ACS Pedals/Deadrest [] ACS Shift Knob / E-Brake Handle [] Clear Corners/Tails/Sides [] Sylvania Exterior Lighting [] Custom CAI [] Dinan Engine Chip [] Dinan Transmission Chip [] H&R Race Springs [] Tokico Illumina Shocks [] BMW X-Brace [] Relocated Lighter Mod [] Custom iPod Mod http://www.cardomain.com/id/robcarync | | | 06-29-2005, 01:21 PM | #8 | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 | rob, should be added to the glossary shortly, but ...

I use a K&N air filter and once I realised that I hadn't cleaned it was I was supposed to, the car has been running much much better (especially around the 2-3K RPM range). I still need to do more servicing. Oh well, maybe a totally useless tangent, but thought I would mention it because I was having a similar problem and was concerned about it being something more serious. Cheers, Paul. | | | 07-01-2005, 10:45 PM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2003 Location: cary, nc Posts: 2,259 | i dont have a K&N filter....it should be here by tuesday though how often should you change stock paper filters...i read every 10k miles...but that was on the K&N site because they wanted you to buy a reusable filter.... is that number accurate? because my stock paper filter hasnt been changed since last summer at around 15k miles ago i think.... __________________ 1995 318ti Active Pioneer Speakers [] Aluminum Billet door locks [] ACS Pedals/Deadrest [] ACS Shift Knob / E-Brake Handle [] Clear Corners/Tails/Sides [] Sylvania Exterior Lighting [] Custom CAI [] Dinan Engine Chip [] Dinan Transmission Chip [] H&R Race Springs [] Tokico Illumina Shocks [] BMW X-Brace [] Relocated Lighter Mod [] Custom iPod Mod http://www.cardomain.com/id/robcarync | | | 07-03-2005, 04:56 PM | #13 | Member Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: Western New York Posts: 31 | I typically change or clean my air filter between 10K - 15K, so sounds about right. __________________ '96 black 318ti Current mods: H&R lowering springs, Bilstein sport shocks, Konig 17" rims, K&N filter, mod'ed air box, Blaupunkt CD50 with iPod | | | 07-04-2005, 06:02 PM | #14 | Junior Member Join Date: Feb 2005 Posts: 23 | Tps I have that same problem but at 6k to 7k rpms. I used fuel injector cleaner in it and it made the problem go away almost but once the cleaner was out of my system it started again. I just purchased magnecor 8.5mm spark plug wires and im abou to buy upgraded fuel injectors i think that is one of the problems... | | | 07-04-2005, 06:14 PM | #15 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2003 Location: cary, nc Posts: 2,259 | now my car is hesitating every time...i hit the gas..nothing happens for a second...then it takes off... i have a code for "Knock Control Regulation"... could a faulty knock sensor be causing this...because there is a specific code for the TPS...but it didn't show up...or maybe the sensor is going bad but isnt bad enough to trigger a code yet? damn, im sorry i hijacked this thread __________________ 1995 318ti Active Pioneer Speakers [] Aluminum Billet door locks [] ACS Pedals/Deadrest [] ACS Shift Knob / E-Brake Handle [] Clear Corners/Tails/Sides [] Sylvania Exterior Lighting [] Custom CAI [] Dinan Engine Chip [] Dinan Transmission Chip [] H&R Race Springs [] Tokico Illumina Shocks [] BMW X-Brace [] Relocated Lighter Mod [] Custom iPod Mod http://www.cardomain.com/id/robcarync | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
