CSL 40mph 6th Gear floor it

What does your CSL do in the above circumstances ?

Mine goes a bit 'jerky' - garage reckons it's missing and one/some of the coil packs might be not working correctly. Drop it a gear or two and it's fine - no other issues.

Just wondered whether they are all like that ?

Don't think I've ever been doing 40 in 6th gear... Would be in 4th at 40!

155 of course - unless you have a delimited or remapped car

What garage is this? Surely BMW would quickly be able to tell on the diagnostics machine...

Hardly a torquey engine though is it, they are pathetic unless you rev the nuts off them!

...though not remapped !

bromers

mine has had some work done recently as you may well have read

symptoms included 2500 revs and car was very jumpy when floored and even though i had headgasket replaced i put this down to the coil packs or the injectors

if your mileage is 50k i would get injectors cleaned and coil packs replaced and see

But that would appear closer to 185-190 on the speedo

Driving through Belgium last May i changed up into 6th at 140mph ish and when i lifted at 170 you could tell it still had some left
