e36 318is problems (weird rev gauge) :S
« on: April 28, 2015, 10:28:23 AM »
Waddup fellow m42'ers,
I'm having some problems with my m42, when it starts to get warm the idle rpm drops to around 650 and then the needle gets all bouncy, jumping up and down between 1000 and 3000 while the actual rpm does not go up to the same numers....
Also shit sounds terrible, the engine wobbles like crazy
Before this, while driving it suddenly started to lose power and didn't react to throttle until it picked up the gas after a few seconds...
Thought maybe there's somebody here who had the same issue ?
Maybe vacuum leak ? already cleaned some intake parts but it didn't improve

here's a vid so you can see the problem
