Rough Idling
« on: September 17, 2008, 09:45:31 PM »
I am having some idling issues with my 318is. When the engine is idling, its a little on the rough side. There will be some very short pauses or hesitation from time to time.

It doesn't cause the car to stall or anything, just slight rough idling. No problems when revving the engine though.

May I know what could cause the rough idling? Btw, I am using shrick cams. Will those cams result in rough idling for the car?

Thanks!

Yes... raise your idle to 900 or 1000 and you will be fine.
