    Help! TPS problem M50

    I believe I have an issue with the tps. When I'm driving it hesitates on low rpms. I disconnected the tps plug and nothing happens. Could it be a harness issue?

      It's a Miller performance blow through maf. I didn't checked that, could it be dirty?

        Actually, i'd check your coils both physically for tears in the boots and if they're within spec with your multimeter - that seems to be a common issue for low rpm hesitation

          I've had bad coils that passed the resistance test. I've also had good coils with cracked bodies. The boots seem to be the biggest issue in my opinion.

            Makes total sense. I never replace the coils ever since I bought an e34 with the m50 about 6 years ago. And on top of that who knows if the previous owner replaced them.... Thanks alot for the help. I'll keep you guys updated.
