BMW Repair: 325i sport 2001 feeling Slugish, bmw shop, bmw 325i


Question
Hi Evan
I've noticed my bmw 325i 2001 sport feels jerkie when i set off? It feels like it gives me the power then takes it back as if its going to stall? I've been told it might need the spark plugs replacing or the car needs tuning? When i start the car the revs seems to drop quite low aswell? My car has only done 48k and seems to have abit of oil leak/oil drips but the mechanic said one of the bolts were Slightly loose? I really need your advice

Thanks
Khali

Answer
Khali, drivability symptoms like this are best handled by a qualified BMW shop or dealer because they can have numberous causes. 48K is very low mileage for plugs to be worn out but that doesn't mean that they can't be cracked or have some other problem with them. Ignition coils were and issue if they were the black jacketed Bremi manufactured coils that were recalled. If you haven't been to the dealer in a while then I would recommend going just to get a diagnosis and check for open recalls on your vehicle.
