330i Hesitation / stall

elsker-min-sara · 07-14-2013, 01:57 PM

Hi guys, i just got my first e90 330i. But it has a problem i can't figure out..

When the car is in neutral or park and i rev the engine then it hestitates / sputters. When the car is cold i does not do this, only when it's hot.
It only hesitates when i rev from idle, not from higher rpms?

Also everytime i takeoff to drive uphill from a hold, then it hesitates and stalls. It does not throw any error codes

I tried to solve the problem by new:
Spark plugs
Airfilter
MAF cleaning

but it's still the same

Could it be a faulty ignition coil?

elsker-min-sara · 07-14-2013, 02:44 PM

I thought about that to.
But a faulty ignition coil would always throw a error right? :-)

Hmm.. I've read about faulty coils that have not generated any coils. The only other thing I can think of off-hand is eccentric shaft sensor, but that would be highly unlikely not to generate a code/CEL... Keep us updated.

How many miles does it have on it? How about cleaning and swapping the positions of the vanos solenoids?

OP is in Denmark and may have the direct injection N53 engine. Just food for thought.

If you have problem and cant figure out whats causing it maybe look at getting the INPA program the dealer uses. Message me if you need link were to get it. But on problem like this I dont see the car not throwing dealer codes.

Hope you find it, never heard of this happening on N52 330, Is yours the N53?

Sounds like a great idea. I don't have a code reader by my own, but will try speaking with a dealer about this. My engine is the N52B30
