Hi,
I have recently bought a 2003 320d Touring that has done 94000 miles. I have been reading about the swirl flap issue and I am a little concerned. Ive read a number of posts on a number of web sites and some say its nothing to worry about, others say removing them and blanking them off has no affect on how the car runs. Blanking them off would give me piece of mind knowing that my engine is not going to become damaged in the future but on the other hand will removing them cause other problems such as increased emissions or decrease in performance and fuel economy. Any advice or experience that anyone has in this matter would be much appreciated.
Thanks
