Hi Gents
Ok as the title shows, I'm having trouble starting my 330. The problem occurred recently and is only doing it when the car is hot/at operating temperature.
The funny part is that if you got a problem with the battery/coils/injectors and so on the vehicle will fail or battle from cold starts.
Mine only does it after its been parked for a few hours after being driven. If its parked for say 5 minutes or you allow it to cool for an entire day it starts fine, but leave it for 3 hours and it will start but as it gets up to an idle rpm it splutters and the swings for like a second or two longer than normal. A tap on the accelerator helps (now I'm thinking Vanos Solenoids?)
I've ruled the starter out because once it swings and splutters, I immediately switch the engine off and within a second or two I start it again and it starts up normally. Tried this about five times in a row.
I'm confused, need help before I get it checked so I know I'm not being taken for a ride. But for now I'm not really worried about it because the car drives normally.
