Hi all,
I'm hoping and praying for some good advice as I'm pretty much out of ideas as to where to from now. My 2002 e46 320d (manual) seems to have a boost bug of some sort. Low down boost only comes in at around 2250rpm (if I'm lucky), but mostly around 2500rpm). Once it starts boosting it goes pretty well, especially in 1st and second gear, yet it doesn't seem to boost through to anywhere near the redline. In 3,4,5th gear it boosts just as it pleases. Boost comes in and then disappears and then returns for a brief moment before there's no boost at all anymore. When I drive well into the boost in any gear and I shift gears, the car has no boost for a second or two before boosting again. This is my second 2002 320d, so I know how the car should behave and this car is nowhere near the previous one in terms of power, fuel consumption etc.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks guys.
