Hi, time for a thread.... I've had my e46 m3 now for 18 months and she has been a gem... 50,000 miles full history and a proper gearbox. Thorney exhaust system with sports cats, carbonaro induction pipe and of course de limited and re mapped.. The car has been very well looked after and garaged most of its life. She pulls very well indeed and is a lovely car in every way.

All was going well until two weeks ago and she got damaged by winds so I decided to get her back to new condition

I was slightly angry to say the least and the builders responsible have insurance to cover the repair. I managed to convince my insurers that I wanted my favorite paint shop To sort her out and they finally agreed . Then I made a few requests and added some money to make the repair go a little further

This was Friday

      Rough idle problem

      Looking for some help. 2010 116i M sport with the 2.0na engine. When cold, car ticks over perfectly. After about 15 mins of driving when idling you can feel it getting a little bit rough. Nothing too bad, but the longer you idle the worse it gets. No EML. When running car runs perfectly not a flicker. Today left it idling for 10mins after I felt it and then revs started to fluctuate but still no eml. OBD scanner can’t pick anything up. Turned it off and back on and was still rough but only a little bit like when it just starts. Anyone had anything similar or can point me in a direction of where I should start looking?

      I stand corrected…. It wasn’t the starter. I could hear it clicking so checked the battery, amps were about 10… new battery and fired straight up…. So much for Halfords and yuasa battery testing! ….now to the next issue…
