Might just have to live with it until a real code shows up or I might just replace the fuel rail pressure sensor when I do my spark plug and coils again soon. Thanks FCP Euro for the lifetime warranty parts. Quote:
I also tested the battery with Bimmerlink and it stated 74%... not sure if that mean anything. Thanks for all the ideas gang :-)

Ok so finally got treatment #2 of techron though the system and I will say its running a lot better on startup, I really haven't seen the delayed startup in about a week or more at this point even when letting it sit for days.
Maybe it was dirty fuel sensors, injectors or something. Thanks Gang :-)

Looking to do this since I'm getting similar issues. But this only happens when I'm running a ethanol mix. Rarely does this happen when I'm running straight pump 93. How many bottles or cycles are recommended, 2? 4? |

I was doing this once a year before oil change but given the success so many others are having i am going to step it up to twice a year, especially since i am consistently running E30 and never pump gas only. The other guy said he did 4 in a row to fix existing issues. That might be overkill if you are just doing it as preventatively but i think 2 bottles in a row might not hurt. |

welp, I have still be chasing this issue. I let the car sit for 3 days and it sounded like hell starting up.
It cranks and stumbles then turns over. I let it run for a minute, turn it off then restart the car and it works flawlessly. I'm just running out of patience with this thing. It doesn't show any codes so I can't see what the heck is starting to fail.

Issue is still persistent... not going away. If the car sits and doesn't get run every day it feel like it's not going to start. it jumps all over the place on first start. Going to add my BM3 logs.

Try flashing the car back to stock and seeing what happens. I've heard a few other people having issues with cold starts on OTS maps, and I believe the consensus was that some fuel needs to be added during cold starts to make them smoother. It's nothing to worry about.

update, I detuned the car and let it still. Its not starting as rough when it was left alone vs when tuned.. gunna let it sit for over 48 hours to see there's any change.

For what it's worth,your videos look 100% normal to me. My car is not tuned (just intake and exhaust) and if it sits for more than 48 hours, there's a bit of unsteadiness in the high idle on cold start for a few seconds before it smooths out again. My old 328i did the same thing for years and it never became more of a problem than a minor annoyance every few startups after sitting. Just my .02, you may want to reach out to BM3 to see if they can smooth it out in the startup tune but I wouldn't be concerned that this is the result of a bigger underlying (or mechanical) issue.

It has sat for about 24 hours now, I'm going to let it got for another 24 then start it up and record it. Makes me think there is something going on with fuel pressure.... we will see tomorrow

I have also thought this looked normal since the beginning, but understand it can be different in person when you notice an anomaly. If you think there's a FP issues, you can log the startup.

Hey jeremy, the start up log is now on on post #1. I'm kinda lost. It's way more strange then the video looks too. hoping to see tomorrow if its just the tune being strange. Ill post another log tomorrow.

Took a quick look at the log. HPFP pressure picks up right away and doesnt really fall behind target. I don't notice anything unusual, but i also don't look at many startup logs.

As has been said, there's certainly something to be said for abnormalities being easier to pick up in person than on video, but with the normal looking logs and videos, I'm stumped brother :/

I just started my car for the first time in over 2 weeks. Has been sitting with E30 in the tank that whole time. Started right up no issues even though i had my doubts for a long crank or initial rough idle lol |

So latest update. Let the car sit for 48 hours In the cold. Started up just fine. I'm thinking it was a tune issue.
Once I reverted back to stock and rest adaptations, I let it sit for a day then retuned the car and reset adaptations again it's worked solid.
