[QUOTE="bmw33y, post: 646449, member: 31918"] Greetings from the land down under. Was surfing the net and came across this website. I too had the same problems as described and I mean the EXACT same issues... No first start after driving and letting rest for 20mins or so and hicups upon light throttle at 120-140km/h or so... Had my fuel pump, fuel filter, spark plugs, leads and even filter cap changed to all brand new genuine parts and still no luck... Even changed a second hand DME/ECU from a 110,000km 94 model to my vehicle still no solution... But last week, my Pierburg fuel pressure regulator finally arrived from germany and BAM.... PROBLEMS all solved. No more hicuppings and triple starts or bad starts... I would recommend trying a new genuine fuel pressure regulator and see if it works. After market or used fuel pressure regulator seem to either leak or not hold pressure for some reason... My 2cents... Best of luck and keep us updated... Regards Tim. [/QUOTE]
