    After my ecu packed in, I have fitted a Emerald stand alone ecu to get up and running. The auto electrician, who is doing the work, is trying to find a more compatible TPS, as the standard one, doesn't give enough info. Must add, this is for a 1982 735i. I was wondering if anyone has modded...

    I have a 2006 320 si which uses the similar style VDO throttle body as a 320 i. The throttle operation has become so intermittent & going into limp mode that I can't afford to risk going to local specialist 50 miles away. I got a local garage to do a diagnostic check.... Throttle actuator...

    Hi. Experiencing weird behaviour with my throttle on a 2011 E81. If you try and hold the throttle at roughly 1300/1400 it will suddenly surge and increase above 1500 even though no additional pressure is applied to the pedal. This can’t be normal surely as its making pulling away very...

    Hello all, I am hoping you can help me, I recently purchased a 1999 E38 735i with 92,000 miles. After a couple of weeks of ownership I noticed the car was intermittently losing power at higher revs under medium to heavy throttle power. This was happening between 3000 - 5500rpm. The car would...

    Newb here, Yank living in Germany so you'll have to excuse me for that. Read a couple of posts here that get me close, but wanted to present this problem in hopes you had a couple of other ideas. We are only here for a total of three years, so bought a Euro spec 1998 E36 325TDS manual...

    Hi. My wife's e46 328 saloon seems to have a slight stickyness to the throttle. When changing up, the revs go up for a second when the clutch is pressed to change gear instead of the revs dropping as normal. I'm pretty sure it's not the clutch because when I rev it hard in nuetral, it sticks...
