Generally, it is only a sensor malfunction, especially if you have done anything to the intake or exhaust recently. No worries.
Thanks Hasan much appreciated. I take it this is common if someone has recently done anything to the intake or exhaust as you say? Wonder if it has also happened to other members. Do the sensors generally automatically re-adjust to the new parts eventually or does this issue constantly come back again and again?Generally, it is only a sensor malfunction, especially if you have done anything to the intake or exhaust recently. No worries.
Will do. Flat-bed coming to take her in on Saturday so lets see. Getting kind of sick and tired of taking my M6 on a flatbed to the dealers - not the first time I have to do this. You start to look at your car like a POS that you cannot rely on. I had an '04 e46 M3 which I enjoyed for nearly 5 great years and it never had to go to the dealers for anything other than a routine service and oil top-up. I'm guessing it must be the sensors or fuel pump or something like that - hope they don't go and blame it on the exhaust and intake. Will see...Must be one of the sensors not functionaing properly.
Let us know what the $tealer says about it.
Fingers crossed its nothing serious and, as you say, simply a fuel pump or sensor issue which can be resolved fairly quickly. Car is still at the dealers since yesterday morning and I haven't yet heard any updates. Will update once I hear from them.Fault has nothing to do with your exhaust! What did the dealer say today?
I had no fault when installing my exhaust!
Mine turned out to be bad fuel system ( pump, filter and sensor )
hehehe :M5rev:Get an M3 courtesy car off them and let's track the hell out of it this friday!
Hope not. Its still very powerful and burns in 2nd and 3rd- all i've noticed though is that the car doesn't seem as rev-happy when down-shifting as it used to. But maybe its because I'm not giving it much juice or because I haven't driven her in a long time so it needs to re-adapt to the driving style.That means they overwrote your engine remap IMO.
