It mainly does it when your going up a slight hill and ease off at the top. Typically when it’s cold. I looked at the hoses at the top and they seem fine. It will then run for miles with no issues. Looking at people with a similar issue on here it ended up being a crack in one of the inlet manifolds so I guess that’s the worst case scenario. I may get a smoke test on it next week. |

Thanks for the info, I'd be interested to know the results of a smoke test. I expect inlet manifold replacement is far beyond my capabilities. 2005 E60 M5

Have a read up on how to change the EGR's as the inlet manifold needs to come off to do them. It really is not hard to remove |

Personally I have not come across a cracked inlet manifold yet on the 3.6 (but other people certainly have) but I have seen loads and loads of split intercooler hoses, they always seem to go at the back so you cannot see them too so taking them off and then bending them about is the only way to find the split normally.

See above issue now sorted. It was a split hose and now runs as it should do.
