Quite the opposite, I can rev it in park, but once I put it in drive and accelerate, that's when it starts acting up, and I get a SAS and the engine cuts power

We're going to do a leak-down test to see so ill fill you guys in on what happens.

I prefer using my Solar/Pro Logix 2320 (20 amp) that has a "stable power supply" feature, that maintains a constant 20 amps so my Foxwell never acts up, anymore. Of course, the 20 amps wouldn't be enough for coding later model X's, with more modules than my early E53, but I won't be coding anyway.

The Original Foxwell I got worked fine, it even had the BMW software, then one day it just stopped working, not just on the X5 but on whatever car I tried it on. Foxwell did some remote access stuff, and they considered the scanner faulty.

We now just use a generic OBD2 scanner, but that still has some problems mentioned earlier.
