    Constant engine stall on start - perfect after 5 seconds

    Hi all,


    I have a 2005 E90 N46 320i (sold in Australia).

    About 5/6 times the car is started it kicks, holds for about a second then drops violently in the revs and stalls. Only a heavy foot on the gas will keep it from stalling. After this period, the car runs perfectly. No rough idle, no stalling, no fluctuation or hesitation of any kind. I never get a code one it's running smoothly and I've cleared the fault code thrown with the start up issue.

    When the start up issue happens and the car stalls, I get 2B63 (camshaft sensor exhaust). I was getting this code constantly every 3 seconds before I replaced the camshaft sensors, and it never pops up apart from the start up issue.

    Some things to note, I've replaced:

    - Valvetronic Motor (and gasket)
    - Valve cover gasket
    - Eccentric Shaft Sensor
    - Ignition coil packs
    - Spark plugs
    - Both camshaft sensors (genuine)
    - MAF


    I'm completely lost here, and I've got no where to go. A guru's help would be extremely appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Wow, the parts cannon is on full auto. What about the VANOS solenoids?
    Are you gonna eat that?
