530i M60 hesitation/stalling issues
My 95 530i started acting up last week, where if I was at idle the engine would just quit, or if I were driving (highway speeds) it would suck the power down on the engine, causing the tach to drop about 500 rpm stay that way for a couple seconds and then return to normal. This happens very intermittently. One day the car would drive fine and then next it would act up a couple times on my commute to work. When it stalls there is no problem restarting, it fires right up. I noticed a couple weeks back that the idle was a bit more rough than usual, not enough that anyone besides me would notice, but I could feel it in the shifter when sitting at idle.
Friday when driving home friday the car started bucking while driving on the highway, where the car would lose power and then come back, lose power than come back etc, so whatever this is getting worse.
I pulled the codes this weekend and the faults read in this order, Camshaft sensor and then Mass Air Sensor. Before I go replacing parts in the car, would these symptoms sound like what would happen if either on these things were failing?
Thanks in advance
Jim
