hey Beyond, i don't know if I can post here. have an auto '94 320i sedan and was hoping to see if someone has had a similar problem i do.
While driving my e36, the engine shuts off. It's not a low-rpm sputter shut off but rather a driving at 1,500-2,500 rpm at about 50km/h and it will just suddenly die, and all the cluster lights turn on. When idling it never dies.
I'm not sure what could be the problem could be, but i'll mention some of the things that might be related.
- The car has been sitting for 5 months
- I recently changed the dme that came from another 320i,
- The car muffler sounds like there is a misfire in it,
- When you press on the gas it doesn't feel like the car pulls like it should (Air sensor maybe?)
- Power steering rack looks like it's leaking
- The car has overheated before
- Has Auto Starter
Any ideas?
