      Was gonna start with looking for oil separator leaks, then manifold, then MAF, then O2. My gut thinks its a vacuum leak.

      Any thoughts anyone?
      How many miles?

      Vacuum leak is most likely. If near/over 100k it could just be a bad O2.

        111K miles. I initially though bad O2, but searching the forums it seems like that most people getting that code were oil separator problems / leaks. I don't want to drop a few hundred bucks on O2's only to find out it's a vacum leak. Figured I'd trouble shoot the cheapest thing first. Is there a way to test O2's individually?

              Since car makers haven't brought all their delights to the U.S., we have to hunt down these machines in their natural habitat. Welcome to Jalopnik's European Review series. We start with this Estoril Blue BMW 320d M Sport Touring, which will become America's BMW 328d wagon.

                  I have a strong feeling that dyno, if accurate, is backcalculating crank horsepower from wheel, and is displaying crank units. The countries that use kW for engine power usually refer to crank not wheel measurements.

                                Torques. I am not interested in the 320/328d though, the 328i has nearly as much torque with a lot more HP. If they bring the 335d, now we are talking.
