Oh dear, that's what happened to mine leading up to both times I needed a new fuel injector. On both occasions I was sat in traffic and the little needle started jigging around to the music, I thought I was imagining it at first, then I put it down to the wind (it was a very windy day) and I was thinking of every excuse so it wouldn't be my little beema's fault, but then shortly after the dreaded engine light came on!!
I've also had occasions where I'll be bombing down the motorway (under 70mph of course) and then I'll get a massive jolt as the car practically cuts out - the needles on the dash both go to zero, then back to normal, all within about 2 seconds - has anyone else experienced this??
I got my courtesy car today, a 57 plate 318d sport e90, better than the vectra I've been using!
