Hi Guys, has any one had an issue like mine, my 320 runs and drives fine however at least 3 times a day it will just cut out more so in traffic or when idling, it will always start back up straight away some time on starting back up it sounds like theres no fuel but then she fires and drives fine ? an ideas ? many thanks

I would suspect fuel filter first. Is idle at about 700 as should be? Also check for leaks at the air intake...loose boot can cause intermittant

Just an update, there was a split in the hose between the mass airflow sensor and the engine
Many thanks
