320i engine warning light
Hi I'm a newbie to the forum and wondering if anyone, or how many judging by the 320i problems thread, has had this:
I have a 57 plate 320i msport manual with 100k on the clock. At the start of the week the car was completely frozen over and I hadn't used the car over the weekend. The car didn't start the first time (might have been second or third) and when it did start was vibrating / juddering and lower revs, only just ticking over at 500rpm. The yellow engine light reduce power came on with fault code CC-id 29. Car judders over 30mph, and I think I can hear a tiny rattle noise on passenger side. No power or acceleration but I guess thats due to limited power. When driven near 40mph slight smell at which point if I reduce speed to 20mph the odour dissappears. Engine sounds like a diesel rather than petrol.
The car is out of warranty and I guessing this could be an expensive bill. Anyone have an idea of what to expect, best and wrose case. Thanks for any response.
Bob
