when driving it was fine
i was told it was a big big job by someone at bmw.
a week later- my local mechanic told me it was an air hose- going to the air box - quite a thick one- had a massive tear in it- replaced that �15- never happened again-
so check all the hoses- this particular hole was just a thin slice straight down the side and i and numerous others never even noticed it-
maybe worth a look if youre still having the problem.
