1st problem! my 523 (M52TU) has a problem when the engine is stone cold. It surges on very slight throttle. At idle it's rock steady and if I nail it, it revs through cleanly.
The easiest way to describe it is if I start it up and move it a short distance slowly. It will surge, making the car kangaroo slightly. If I drive it normally it's fine. Leave it ticking over for 2-3 mins and it'll be fine, problem disappears. Drive it to the end of the road, problem gone.
I can live with it but a) it would be nice to fix it and b) I want to sell it so I want the car to be right when it goes.
2nd problem!! The airbag light is on constantly. When I start the car it goes out for under a second then comes back on with a click of a relay. Anyone know what it is.
Cars a 2000 "W" 523i auto
Thanks in advance.
