Does anyone have any experience in coaxing the error codes out of a 540i using the stomp test?

My check engine light has been flickering so I haven't been able to drive my "new" E34.

Any ideas?

Well you do know the stomp test is using the GAS pedal right? :D

Once you turn your key to possition II, you have to very quickly hit the gas paddle down to click the kick-down botton 5 times. It should work.

within 5 seconds so the peddle will have to be pressed quick! I usually dont let the peddle come all the way back so its easier :D
