330d hesitation and fan issues

scotgc · 09-24-2012, 03:46 PM

Hi folks, took my 2012 330d into the dealer today as I had noticed it felt a bit lumpy and down on power sometimes a bit like it was running on 5 cyls. Also a few occasions where the fan had stayed on for ages after I stopped and turned off the engine.
Turns out the engine temperature sensor is not working and my air pollen filter casing has cracked. My car has only done 12k since I got it brand new a year ago, it's not been abused etc.

The garage asked if it had been into anther dealer but this is the cars first trip in since I picked it up on sept 1st luckily all covered under warranty.
I also noticed what looks like white worm on one of my 313'S !

Anyone else experienced similar issues ?

Nope, I've got the same car and same age and not had any engine issues at all.

So got my car back this evening, engine temperature sensor replaced. Car feels much better it just seems to keep urging you to go quicker.

Also getting two new rear alloys as mine have corrosion damage.
