Finding a good shop is not as easy as you think, its the hardest thing, believe me!

 

Could the Throttle Valve errors (1637 & 1638) im having, be due to carbon build up in the valves or the intake manifold?

 

Not a shot in the Dark at all, this is true. Your miles away from others DneprDave, thanx for not thinking the obvious (most people judge by thinking the obvious).

 

can the timing be changed on the N14 engine to prevent the carbon build up as suggested here on this video?

1. What does "runs like a dog" mean?
2. How does one get the update? Is it software?
3. I hadnt heard that bmw did this to fix an issue, THE ISSUE of the n14 engine! Im wondering, if it was something official, that would fix the problem without any side effects, wouldn't bmw offer this to all of its clients as a good will in fixing the carbon build problem?

 

Wow now thats a great idea, i wonder why no one suggested this! :biggrin5:
Ok enough now, ill get it blasted!

 

I know that you are all relieved when stating that i will blast it!
Thanks for putting up with me. cu
