newbie here with an issue...
got a 1997 528i with 125k miles....tried to start the car the other day and it started fine but will not idle....sometimes just dies....I was told that most of the idling prblems with BMW's are related to the Idle COntrol Valve....is this true, is there any other things that might be wrong? When i hold the gas pedel down while starting it and keep it slightly depressed it is ok, but as soon as i let go, it idles really low or just dies....The check engine light does not come on and i am able to drive it ok as long as i do not let off the gas pedel.....any thoughts...where is this idle control valve anyway???
Help Please :banghead
