Car won’t stay on. Start - high idle (1400 RPM). 5 seconds, and then it dies. No throttle response. Thinking, needs vacuum.

There’s no N75 valve, it’s on a MBC and the software is supposedly tuned to not care about it.

Ideas? Besides : I think you have a bad ground.

Really? Nothing?

I gotta figure out wtf is up with these O2 sensors. I guess the heating element died.

my m3 had something like this…

the 02 sensor wire melted and shorted itslef out… it caused the ECU to throw the car into limp mode…

I got under and the 02 sensor wire had completely melted and was just bare copper for 6-8 inches near my headers… i guess i had routed them wrong during the header install…

I replaced with new OEM headers and zipp tied them to the clip… reset the car adn Voila!!!

i think your car is in a limp mode

I would definitely check the wires for the O2 sensors, because in all honesty, it looks like a bad ground. 🙂
