What part number do you suggest that I get? As far as shifter boot with frame?

Here's the latest. Replaced TPS and the ICV and still getting the mysterious no throttle response unless 2 to 5 mins goes by after initial cold start. Cold start is just fine. Now it sometimes take longer than 5 mins to regain throttle. I started restarting it 2 or 3 times in a row testing throttle after each restart until I regain control. I must also note...when there is no throttle, when i depress the accelerator car acts like it wants to die or as if its getting flooded. Maybe fuel filter or pump or possibly HEAT related....idk. Thoughts anyone?..

There's a couple of simple things to try:

With the engine OFF disconnect the MAF - and then restart the car and check if the issue still exists - switch OFF and re-connect if that made no difference.

With the engine OFF disconnect the camshaft sensor - test to see if the problem still exists - here's where it lives:

....running without a camshaft sensor reduces power and uses more petrol but you still should have reasonable performance.

If neither of those help we are getting to more unusual problems - but the next in line is the secondary throttle butterfly - this can be seen working at 2:00 on this video:




Finally, make absolutely sure the ASC warning light illuminates when the ignition is switched to position II and then goes out

Thanks Timm. Will try once I return home from Holyday. Cheers

Happy Father's Day to all that are good to their 8's. Sin City BMW car club did a Mt Charleston drive today after Gears and Grind. Mountain air was good for the 8. Coasting down the mountain riding the brakes wasn't. Slow cars in front even though we were coasting at 75 and 85mph...lol.
