Sorry not to have posted this earlier, but the idling problem went away as spontaneously as it arrived. Obviously that particular gremlin lost its grip under hard acceleration/cornering - Streaky

Have had exactly the same problem with my 86 350i for some time. It's currently at Top Cats having that and several other niggles sorted out (I hope).

If they get to the bottom of it I'll let you know.

just reading your comments on friday 19/10/03 regarding won't idle i have the same problem.
Starts first time when cold but when warm hunts and stalls and does not want to restart. i am interested to hear what Top Cats sorted for you.
