Stalled, no codes and started no problem

[Big "J"]

Anyone have their X just stall out, throw no codes and then a minute later starts just fine and have had no issues?

This just happen to me and I am wondering if anybody has dug into this to find out what really caused this?

It's 105 deg. here and a/c is pumpin!!!

I have had this happen to me 3 times. Twice during the summer in 100+ temps and once when backing up. I never had any codes thrown and the X drove fine. The dealer told me maybe I had a bad tank of gas, and to only use 91 top tier.

I remember reading somewhere, either here or on the e46 site, that sometimes the CPS units will get too hot and cause you to stall out. Won't throw a code, but after a few minutes of cooling they work ok.

Anyone know of something like this?

My dad's E46 325xi had this problem. I checked his service log and he said it happened once, started right up and then again the next day with all the service lights on.

The dealer said it was a DME Software Error. They reprogrammed it and it has been fine so far.
