My 95 530i that I've had a few months has a strange hesitation at very infrequent times during an accleration while cruising or especially during strat-off at traffic lights. It's a little scary when turning out into traffic if it happens then and it does. It's pretty inconsistant and infrequent though.
It's symptoms are a sputtering/bogging-down type hestitation for several seconds or at a certain throttle position it seems. I typically just try pumping the throttle for the 2-3 sec duration and it may usually gets better and accelerates normally.
Also, I noticed that if I just let the hes****tion continue it will get better after several seconds on its own without pumping the pedal.
I've checked the TPS and ICV per the Bentley and okay except the TPS seems to have an resistance gap near the end of the full rotation which I'm pretty sure my pedal is not at this point when this is happening as I'm usually only moderately accelerating at the time of the hesitation.
