I have a late 2002 325i with a running problem, basically the engine idles fine but if the throttle is pressed and then held in the same position the engine revs rise and fall not abruptly but gently. this causes a problem when pulling off, the effect being kangarooing down the road.
Any ideas, there are no engine warning lights on????

sounds like an air leak, check big hose between air flow meter and throttle body, they are  famous for pin holes or cuts, where jubilee clip secures them,also check the flap on the afm,to see it slides easily,good luck, tommy.
