D3 Mono 57 plate - Juddering When Idling
Good Morning everyone. I have noticed that My Mono Turbo D3 e90 57 plate, has started to "judder" when Idling. Quite pronounced, seemingly more evident when warm. Also fuel economy dropped 1.5 mpg, not sure if related? Hoping you can advise. Thank you!

The judder may be the dual mass flywheel.LifesTooShort wrote:Good Morning everyone. I have noticed that My Mono Turbo D3 e90 57 plate, has started to "judder" when Idling.

Its a common fault on the e90s and not necessarily age-dependant.LifesTooShort wrote:Oooh heck, reckon I should get it checked out.?

I noticed mine was juddering first thing in the morning and if Id been stuck in traffic. Learned to live with it for a whiles as the garage said they very rarely fail in their entirety. I finally had the DMF changed out at 95k. Also had a new clutch.

Morning Joe, thank you for the reply! Yes, just sat in car now having driven to work, not touching any pedal and it feels like the car is wobbling, engine note warbling, more erratic an ex pronounced now!IAM Joe wrote:The way I'm reading this sounds more like the glow plugs at fault. You say when the car is at idle, as in you're not pressing the clutch pedal etc.

Any flat spots when accelerating? Obviously after the big flat spot before the big turbo winds up!
Could be a sign of plugs/plugs relay or DPF blocked.
Do you have an ECU code reader? If not might be worth visiting the local garage and paying for a quick diagnostic test.

Don, have noticed ever so slight flat spot occasionally. She definitely doesn't feel as punchy and economy down a bit too. Ive had DPF issues with DPF on diesel pug 3008. I do a fair number of short journeys in working day virtually all under 5 miles and many of these less than 2 miles but commute 13 miles there and 13 back. Think I will go to garage and get it checked as you suggest. Thank you!DonFlintoni wrote:Any flat spots when accelerating? Obviously after the big flat spot before the big turbo winds up!
