Hi all, First post after being a long time reader of the forums. Hopefully you can help. I have bought this car a little while ago but now started developing a fault, there is clear hesitation on acceleration where up to to about 1500rpm it would hesitate and feels as though it is choking...

Hi. I'm new here so sorry if this has been covered before. I have recently purchased a 08 320d 177hp tourer and all seemed fine. The other day a warning triangle came up and counted from 992 to 993 to 994 then went away I have noticed today that the acceleration suddenly seems way down at low...
