BTW it's a 2000 323i (2.3) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know it's 323 and it's not like the fastest car in the world----but

PLZ HELP
hey man,

you may not be aware, but your car is an E46, not an E36.. so wrong forum.

i can try to help you.. but please, please watch the language.

i know it sucks.. but lets limit it to that.

If the CEL is on, then it can not "check out" there will be a code. autozone can read codes for free if you don;t have a code reader.

If i understand correctly, its a warm engine problem only.. it def has all of the signs of an electrical problem.

There are multiple coil packs.. 1 per cylinder. did anyone any pull the plugs to see if one looks different, indicating a missfire?
