I live in Dallas Tx and we were just hit w/ allot of rain a week ago. My driveway was flooded (has the house was also) but the water was so high it wet the carpets in my E36. When I started my car the idle was real rough and it took a full of driving to get back to normal. I had the oil changed just incase should I have replaced the Idle valve also? Just wondering....
