So heres the situation, last night i'm driving for about 20 minutes (the car ran fine on start up and up until the incident) I get off the highway and slow to a stop at the light (its an auto btw). All of a sudden the rpm's drop violently to 0 and rocket up again, this happens about 2 times and the car gives out. Also the battery light came on. I had to keep my foot on the gas at the stop lights just so it wouldnt give out and i could make it home, once i got there i could smell the car's exhaust and it smelt really burnt. What am i looking at guys a bad vacuum leak (http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1048493#)? i've already got a new o2 sensor (http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1048493#) on the way, i need this fixed soon! :helpplease!
