Revs drop & near stall Z4MR

Post by ratty64 » Sat Jul 08, 2017 2:27 pm

With the Z4MR it seems when I come to a stop and fully depress the clutch the revs drop almost to the point of stalling then bounce back.

Does this signify any common issue? I thought it was me with dodgy clutch control at first but it's definitely dipping the revs down then back up to an idle, whilst being very close to stalling completely.

Good luck. My car did it when I first bought it and I found it super annoying. New cams and rod bearings had the side benefit of curing it somehow for me. 20k miles later still good.

It's covered by approved used warranty so if it can be linked to a known issue I may have a shot at getting it sorted
