Hey guys sounds stupid but my 330ci has been losing power when i try to pull off quickly? Shouldnt do it but i thought id give it a go in the snow with a little doughnut and drifting but every time i let the cluch go with high revs it nearly cuts out then decides to go back to low revs? Can any1 help? (DSC on and off?)

Engine management !

Whats the service indicator showing at this time?

Were you "redlining" it?

And was DSC FULLY off ?

Hello Ayrton,

Is this ONLY happening when on Snow? the power will drop off when you go into a slide not just because of DSC but because you don't have a LSD installed. All the power goes to one wheel and that wheel will have the least traction. Of course, if this theory was to apply, you will still see high revs. When you say "Nearly cuts out" what do you exactly mean? Do you mean that the engine nearly stalls but then jumps back to life to settle upon idle rev with your foot still plastered to the floor?

yeah the car nearly stalls then starts at low revs and kicks in...i press the DSC button so it shows a green light which I take it as its fully off? I wasn't red lining it but the service indicator is showing 15k over due but i know it has had one since then.

HOLD the DSC button until it goes whappy (5-10 secs) then its OFF !

It resets to default when you stop engine...
