2000 BMW 328i quick tour

Description

This is a quick tour showing my car and a few things that have been of interest in the forums. Note: the exhaust is quite a bit louder in real life, as most of you know capturing an exhaust's true sound is very hard. I only went up to 4500rpm but wide open this thing screams! Please excuse my voice, I'm getting over a flu right now and being on a bit of drugs I do seem slightly sluggish! :) I did find something very interesting about the idle issues that seem to be common in the E46. During the filming of this I had A/C on. You'll hear in it the idle surges quite a few times in only a few minutes. After I left the car running, rolled the windows up, turned the A/C off and went inside to upload my clip. Went outside and for the 3-4 minutes I was standing there, the car not once surged. I had noticed this before once but never really thought much of it. But now, I'm sure, the idle issues have something to do with the A/C. I've done a ton of stuff to my engine and it has either helped the idle issue a bit or made my car run smoother or happier. When I first got it, it used to actually stall when the idle would surge on a cold morning. Now, it's running fantastic compared to that and I just think I might have found the one thing that could fix this issue for good! If you've got an E46 with the idle issue, give this a shot. Make sure your car is warmed up, experiment a bit with having it idle with A/C on and then turn A/C off. See what you find. Hopefully this helps you <b>...</b>
