Hi, Can anyone help me please - I own a E36 320i SE, N Reg. I seem to have lack of power and the car is not accelerating and pulling like it should, it takes a long time for the revs to pick up. Personally I think there is a missfire somewhere, could anyone help me if they know anything else that it could be and why its happening?
Thanks
Dan

Hi thanks for the info i thought it could possibily be coil packs but i will get it checked, could it be the lambda sensor by any chance?
Yep - but it could be anything!
My 320i has a weird idling problem showing up as a faulty throttle switch on the scanner - even though it's not. The voltage is fluctuating like a bastard so could be a dirty pin on the ECU connection.
