Hey Guys, thought you might be able to hep me out with this…I drive a 318 SE Oct. 2001 model and I have encountered these problems....
1. During cold weather, my engine 2.0 Valvetronic, seems to be running fast (sticking at approx. 2000rpm) – is this a regular problem with this model of BMW?
2. The rear windscreen doesn’t demist all the way to the top – the BMW garage has suggested that this is due to the aerial being placed into this area of the screen – Is this correct?
Numerous BMW Garage checks have so far not provided me with any satisfactory explanations…
Also do you know of any other regular problems regarding the 318 SE 2001 model?
Thank you for your time and Knowledge!!!
Hugh.
