Hey guys,
So i've been searching and can't seem to find the answer to my specific case..
i believe I'm suffering from a loss of power..
I have a 2002 M5 with 61,000 miles.
I used to have a check engine light for the cam position sensor bank 1 sensor A at 58,500 miles and I replaced that and the check engine light hasn't returned..
Before that the car was really low on power and would idle rough..
changing the sensor helped a bit and brought the car back to life with a smooth idle and the car had power again..
Yet still the car felt lacking..
I Changed the air filters and I cleaned the MAF's and this helped a bit and my car was a BEAST for about 2 days and then went back to being sluggish :/
I then replaced the MAF's the other day with new ones and then this helped a lot and brought the car really to life..
HOWEVER, occasionally the car will be somewhat sluggish and feel like I'm not at full power..
I have spark plugs and a fuel filter ready to put on the car tonight..
Do you guys honestly think that this might help my problem?
And if not what do you think it could be? Am I missing something obvious to check? I've replaced the oil twice since its at 58,500 miles and now its at 61,000 and I believe they are the original plugs..
I want my car back to being the full power beast it should be :flag:
