Alpina C2 2.7.

Had this problem today, first time!
Car started and idled ok
When I tried to drive off I had interrupted - rough running from about 1000-1500 revs and that was it, removing my foot from pedal and idle is back to normal
I gave one more try but this time I put my foot right down , car roughed to about 2000 rpm and then cleared up, drove for about 20 miles with no problem
Once close to home I slowed down and I got back to max 2000 rpm even with foot full down and very rough running. When I got home FINALLY , I switched engine off and then back on and car run normal

Any ideas or thoughts please

Thanks

Check out the big convoluted air hose, between the AFM/air filter and the throttle body, for cracks and splits. A tear can open up under engine movement, causing an unmetered air leak, then close up when the throttle is lifted off again.

Brian Knows his stuff, Pacerpete and BSS325i as well may be able to help

Demitri, if you get stuck give Chris a call at CC racing in Lemesos

Have checked for air leaks , all looks ok, I have been driving the car all day long today and I had no problem at all with it, thanks for the help anyway Brian and Kos!!!!!

Car is still fine but I Will order a fuel pump to have on my spares shelf as it's going to be needed at some point I would guess!!!
