quote: Yes that sounds about right, my old one just did it straight away and still was a crank sensor - i had loads changed and it kept doing it then that was the last sensor and it stopped - it would do it on corners or motorways pain in the arss. Only thing that ever lasted long enough was getting it on the computer and resetting. i even changed my fuel filter | |

Did the lights dim when you tried to start it? Any clicking noise? | |

quote: Mine was the sensors (Crank) i think, We changed a few - it was about 3 years ago now - no signs shown up on mine - just cut out when it wanted and wouldn't start again - its a very common fault in the E46 shape. After that it ran perfectly fine… | |

yeah so so basicly what i've been thinking. I got a spare key which i will try when im able to get to where i left it. I can also plug it into a computer whilst down there but no warning signs have shown up -.-. | |

If it was crank sensor I think it would still turn over, just not fire. | |

quote: I had a problem like this with my older BMW this was a E46 318I though - mine would start sometimes not all and when I was driving would sometimes just cut out and then not start again - I have a friend who's a BMW specialist and mine ended up just being sensors. Id get it the computer if you know anyone near you…. I got rid not long after I had a constant oil leak that I kept mending - then my header tank and radiator went… Pain in the butt | |

If it doesn't bump, its not the starter. | |

So i have a 325 e46 bmw and today while at work its decided to not start. All the lights come on pumps kick in etc etc but as soon as i turn the key to fire the starter there is just nothing. |
