7 days in and already messed up!

Cp009 · 09-30-2010, 01:11 AM

Just bought my car about 7 days ago I go to leave for work; start up the car, cranks for a little then the rpms are all over the place and the engine has a almost rumble to it then the car just dies???? I have yet to order my bt scanner. What do you guys think this is? Still under warranty so I'm not too worried and I got to drive the e46 which hasn't been done in awhile. Taking it to the dealer once I get off of work. Overall I have to say I'm a little disappointed, but hey stuff happens.

Sorry for the choppy post at work on my phone.

HPFP probably. When my HPFP was out and I started my car, the crank took about 10 seconds, and during that time the engine was revving all over the place.

When you take it to the dealer ask for its history report. Your service guy can pull it up and fill you in on the cars history of service / repairs.

yea my car had that issue too after i bought it...for 1-2 weeks it did that then finally i got the service engine light and limp mode.. turned out to be the HPFP...

That's what I assumed. I looked at the service before I even bought the car it only showed normal matinence. Well hopefully they can service it quickly and I can get back on the road I absolutely love my baby.
