Hey guys.
My 2010 120D E82 Auto is misbehaving with a total lack of power every now and then from a standing start. It normally happens after I've been at speed for a while like driving on a motorway, get off at the junction, come to a stop and it then happens as I'm pulling off.
As you pull off the car splutters / misfires and won't rev higher than tick over. It coughs and splutters for several metres and then burst back into life and all is fine again. I think it is an issue getting off and above tick over, if I knock it into neutral a blip throttle, back in to drive its fine. If it was a manual car it wouldn't be as much of an issue but I've got an auto and no power as you pull off is a nightmare.
Does this issue ring any bells with anyone who can point me in the right direction please?
I should add that I've checked the rear reluctor rings and they both look clean with no raised area and no touching the sensors.
