Had the car just over a year now and since Ive had it its been nothing but trouble. To cut a long story short the latest problems are:

1.The reverse sensors work when they want, other times it just beeps for about 5 seconds to let me know theyre faulty!

2.The car has cut out when I'm at traffic lights and go to pull away 3/4 times!

3. In 2 weeks its gone through 3 litres of oil, I only drove about 400 mile in that 2 weeks if that! there is no leak, and smoke smoke coming from exhaust. I went to garage today its booked for next week, but he said that one other 3 series had the same problem and they changed the breather filter for the oil and its been fine since.

Its an auto with 80,000 miles

Thanks in advance if anyone has any info.

1...sounds like either a dirty sensor or one breaking down and will soon become duff
2... Sounds like a faulty inlet camshaft sensor
3... Sounds like a breather problem though could be related to number 2
