    High Idle

    Still trying to hunt down a high idle on the M30B32 733i

    The Idle is around 1100 or 1200. Car still seems to run pretty rich but one thing at a time.

    intake Has been smoke tested. ICV has been cleaned and seems to move freely acording to all the ICV info ive seen.

    Even if it didnt you can't actually get one any more.

    I notices the ICV on this car us controlled by an Idle control modure instead of the ECU like on the B34

    I know these ICM's can go bad as well but they are expensive and I hate to replace it if its not the issue. Is there a way to test it?

    Also pin 10 is the temp switch. Like every 80s 7 series my outside temp switch has left the building and is no longer available.

    Could this one input be the entire issue? If so what temp switch can be substituted to fix the issue?

    Thanks for the Help Guys!

    I'm also having this same issue. Throttle position sensor maybe? I replaced mine, but I'm still having the same issue.
