Stumble from stop light under mid to heavy throttle
 
2001 X5 3.0 from a start, stumbles like it is not getting power, from stop only. More so when fully warmed up.
Changed intake cam sensor. Exhaust was done about 30k ago.
DISA checked and fine. Idle control valve was cleaned about 20k ago.

Could be:
  • Throttle position sensor,
  • crankshaft sensor,
  • trans solenoid,
  • wheel speed sensor, or
  • air leak
  • transfer case gear?

No codes. 260k miles
I do need to replace my drivers side Fuel Tank Sending Unit as after a fill up the fuel level did not come back. It came back after a week full of gas though.

How old is the fuel pump? Feels like fuel pump

How old are the plugs? Has the VANOS ever been rebuilt?

ewebby 04-07-2022 07:20 PM

vanos rebuilt about 60k ago - full rebuild

perhaps the one side of tank is not sending fuel since the fuel level sensor seems bad

The float for level doesn't interfere with fuel delivery, however if you don't know how much fuel, add enough to know you have 1/2 tank and test.

Siphon jet problems occur close to 1/3 to 1/4 tank and could cause a delivery problem but usually it isn't power problems it's fuel starvation stall.

When fuel pump is near end of life, the FPR will hide a weak pump and symptoms show up under moderate to heavy demand.

i have 1/3 tank, only and issue from stop and med to hard acceleration for about 2 seconds until it gets going. RPM / Torque related I am thinking.
throttle position sensor
exhaust cam sensor
crankshaft sensor
oxygen sensors
smoke test?
Fuel Tank Sending Unit
Fuel pump
wheel speed sensor
clean maf

Tested in neutral, misses when tapping throttle, goes away on after a second . No cel. Original coils. Bad spark plug? Only 23k on plugs. MAF or TPS is my guess. I have Autel MaxiDiag MD808 Pro perhaps I can run live data

Track real time TPS values can your scanner graph? Also pedal sensors.

Then: fuel pressure while hitting throttle. It should be dead flat no waver.
