E36 sometimes the acceleration Is very slow almost not moving slow. But after about 3500 rpm the car takes off. And ideals on what to check first. Car idles fine. Starts right up. Thanks.
Yes I cleaned the maf did not make a difference. Bought a new one off eBay but when I plugged it up the transmission warning light can on and the car shifts hard when driving.
What good will the stomp test do the OP with a '97 328? I was of the understanding that was only for OBD I cars :dunno: Yes I know perfectly well, just not trying to start a fight.
If it were the vanos.. it would be making a significant amount of noise..
Clean, Clean, Clean the MAF.. remove screens on MAF, use spray FIRST, (and LIGHTLY with q-tip if necessary) clean the element.
Clean Throttle body
Clean Throttle position sensor
Check for vacuum leaks
Check the hoses that are plumbed into the boot on intake
Disconnect, clean, lube, and reconnect all associated electrical connections.

do you have a dvom?? if so, check the voltage @ the maf @ idle. iirc it should be at about 0.8v @ idle.
