Update on Rattling / Running issues

**DazBlackCSL** · 03-09-2010, 10:28 AM

Right ... car now in, had a very helpful tech guy come out from BMW emergency services ( 5 series estate chap ) spent a good 45 mins diagnosing and checking everything through, re-set codes, run , re-set etc etc

Appears to be Oxygen and Lambda Sensors ( all of em ) that have gone down, which is weird to all sensors fault, but they were causing over fuelling and the vanos was over compensating (hence the noise) steadily got worse after driving back to dealer, cutting out at junctions etc etc , so im now at home waiting for arrival of loan car, with fingers crossed it's not a corsa / fiesta or something equally as exciting

So hopefully a fairly straight forward warranty repair and the old girl is back with me next week or the following
