Hi guys,
I am new here. I have been having quite few problems with my RR P38, but I have somehow sort most of them out. However, the latest problem is too complicated for me, so I thought I'd post it here.
Oh, before I begin, the car is 2.5 diesel (bmw), with an automatic transmission.
Here it goes.... When the engine is cold, it runs fine.
When it warms up, problems begin. First, the engine revvs up to 3000 or more RPMs by itself. At this moment, check engine light comes on. Next moment, rpms drop to about 750, and the CEL goes off. At this point, idling is kind of rough. RPMs jump to 3000 or more every ten or fifteen seconds. Sometimes, when RPMs drop to normal, the car dies. After I turn the engine back on, it's the same story all over again.
Has anyone had similar problem? Please help me.
Best regards,
Mike
