Engine problem?
Hey guys, in the morning when i first start up the car, the engine seems to rev itself and there are some weird noises from the engine. This has never happened in the past and it has been doing that after i did my services at a dealership. What is wrong with my m3? Thanks in advance for your help.

I am not sure how to describe the noise, it's just way louder than normal times. The temperature was at the lowest point shown (50 degree celsius) and the outside temperature was about 15 degree celsius (59 F).

Might be lounder because of the fluctuating rpms. Could be Idle Control Valve. I'm not sure if it will throw a code or not, maybe some other members can chime in. For the future, try to post more information about your problems.
Include weather and engine conditions, year of your car, km, and any mods that you might have. This will make it easier to diagnose. Good luck. |

As far as the idle issue that sounds pretty normal especially when that cold out. Ill agree with the others I have seen a handful of issues with idle valves and I have even replaced one as early at 500 miles on a brand new m3, as you could guess the customer wasn't very happy that the check engine light came on in the first 500 miles.
