[QUOTE="badass_ck, post: 732818, member: 25296"] Dear Sifus, N42 engines. 2004 model. 318i. I was driving uphill. The rpm went to 3000 - 4000 but it remained going on less than 20km/h. I called up the regular mechanic and he said he didnt know what was the problem. When I finally finished climbing, the car remained in less than 20km/j for 50 - 100 metres. Then it picked up a little. [B]No error code appeared[/B]. My car has existing problem: 1) car cant start in usual manner. Need to crank with a lot of screeching sound a few times; 2) when i serviced my car, they found water mixed out with engine oil. As prevention, they changed the engine cooler + gasket. 3) no aircond (just changed the pump today for RM 1,900 (daiso)) I am planning to wake up early and drive to the workshop tomorrow. [B]Is the car still in driving condition[/B]? [B]Does anyone know what is the problem?[/B] [B]Thank you in advance.[/B] [B]UPDATE:[/B] apparently there's an error on the 3rd gear which had been cleared by using the diagnosis machine. Hopefully, it wont re-occur. [/QUOTE]
