I have a 2004 545I with 9000 miles and on Wednesday I heard a loud noise from the transmission. The noise went way and I thought that it was a one time occurence. Then, on Saturday the car started to rev up by it's self. I jammed it in to Park ( I know that was probably stupid and a good way to blow the motor) and it revved up to 6000 rpm and then went back to idle. I ran it into the dealers and they did a quick computer check for codes and of course there were none. Any ideas??? As this could be very dangerous. Thanks
