After revving my 2008 520d E61 to approximately 4,000 rpm whilst overtaking another vehicle the engine  has started to run lumpy. I have pushed the check button and there are no faults showing. The car still performs as normal. Any ideas as to what could be the cause of the lumpy running? I have checked to make sure it is not something obviously disconnected. Any help would be much appreciated.

I am sure the check system will only show simple stuff like bulbs, washer level etc. You need the codes read for the engine to give a clear steer towards the problem, I would guess at injector blocked/failed as the cause but codes will tell.

It could also be a vacuum leak so I would check all the hoses

      Engine running weird when hot

      I concur with Greydog. I would look at the throttle body and air intake system. unplug the MAF sensor and see how the car runs. Get some carb cleaner in there and see what happens.

      e63 m6 (2010) competition package grill (right) help

      Hey, I have a 2010 M6 with the 'competition package' optional extra. The front grills are slightly different in that there is a slight bulge to align with the different bonnet. I've circled this image online to indicate where it is. My issue is that I've gotten a sizable stone chip on the right grill and want to replace it. However, the dealer (and consequently BMW through a request) can't get a part number for it. I'm guessing I'm sod out of luck, but wondering if anyone knows how I could find a part number or otherwise locate the grill. I could of course replace it with an aftermarket, but want the original. Advice appreciated.

      218d 2017 ACTIVE TOURER CENTRE REAR TAILGATE BRAKE LIGHT

      Morning Steve I have never worked on a 2 series but would imagine like the X3 and X5 internal trims around the rear window have to come off for access or maybe like the X5 the spoiler top fixings can be accessed from outside I would check www.realoem.com to see how the trim parts are fitted

      Collision Avoidance System

      Morning Paul You have one major answer, your Local Main Dealer is not a good one !! Have you talked to BMW UK Customer services ? Clearly either the Dealer doesn't have a clue or there is an issue they also don't understand ? Worse by telling you a road test would be dangerous are they saying the car is in a dangerous condition ? All questions I would put to BMW UK Good Luck Dave
