BMW 1 series E87 116i
Hi all
I was driving along dual carriage way and the engine light came on and car loss most of power, engine did not cut out. Could drive max 40mph with high revs. I took car to a local garage.
First diagnostics, change of battery, same problem occurred a couple of days later. Took it back to same garage.
Second diagnostics, throttle cable change, same problem again.
=£500 spent.
The garage took my car to local diagnostic specialist, they reported the alternator overcharging (needs replacing) and the stereo needs changing.
The first two diagnostics were incorrect, I do not want to spend more money on this report and for the same problem to arise.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Alex
