Default ICV Valve cleaned, got reduced engine power on idrive
Hi everyone,
My first post so i hope is on right place.
I did cleaning of my ICvalve today and when I put all back and try to start the car I got several messages on I drive including reduced power.
The rpm goes up and down and the car does hardly move, I did one mistake i took the battery of after I disconnected the electrical cables from the engine side.can this be the problem?
BMW 520i 2004

Thanks for your help.

I did put everything back, and I did not remove MAF sensor,
I wonder If low fuel could cause that since I just noticed that is almost gone,
It shows 18 km range.

Thanks
