First Batch of problems... opinions needed
 

So I officially entered the E70 world...

I have so far the following symptoms that worry me:

1- When parked, i turn it on, release the hand brake and put it in D... and Bang! I hear a loud clunk! is that normal? I tried applying the parking break and then put in in P, it makes it better, but still happens sometimes... anything to worry about?

2- now the puzzling part: yesterday, when coming to a stop, the engine shut off. it happened twice. it restarts just fine, and stores no codes. I took it to the shop, where they cleaned the throttle body for me. after cleaning it, it was on idle (still at the shop) it shut off twice more. the mechanic said it was adapting to the new idle value. and that's it! i did not repeat since yesterday.

The shop does not have GT1/INPA, etc... so i pulled the codes using BMWhat. and below is the report. the codes are in HEX...

Can someone help me out here?

Battery age? Correct battery for the car????

That was my first thought as well...

Well the battery is AUG 2013.
Yesterday i replaced the spark plugs and a crankshaft position sensor (had a code once and went in limp mode).
So far so good, no stalling. need to test it more though.

STILL HOLDING!!! no stalling so far... the X is going strong, had a nice long trip to the mountains this weekend, and it was a blast to drive uphills :)

Got to watch those electrons in a E70+
 

Seems to me everybody needs to get a digital voltmeter for the cigarette lighter and monitor the battery voltage. Low voltage=discharged battery and with discharged battery nothing can be trusted.

Can't wait to get the one off Amazon I have coming will be interesting to see voltage rise as alternator is charging (when?) and see the voltage at rest indicating battery charge level. Hook the battery tender to it and watch how it goes over time.

Or you can get a bluetooth OBDII and download the Torque application...

Doesn't the 2008 3.0 engine utilize Valvetronic for the throttle duties? If so, cleaning the throttle body does absolutely nothing. The conventional throttle body is a backup device in the event the Valvetronic system fails. Under normal use, the throttle body is held wide open at all times.

Incidentally, my sons 2007 328i does the random stalling thing. Haven't figured it out yet as it only happens about once every couple of weeks.
