Hey all,
Was just wondering if anyone has come across this Increased Emissions notification from the insturment cluster. The Service Engine light comes on as well and I recently had my CIP upgraded along with a minor service completed. Being that my search results yielded no fruitful responses to my problem I was wondering if anyone had an idea of what this problem might be.
Thanks in advance,
P

My Ride: 2004 545i - 6 speed manual (July 04 build), silver-grey/black, sports package std equipment (18", active roll, active steering, adaptive headlights), premium sound, bluetooth enabled, folding rear seat, lumbar, 3m hood/bumper protective film, rear tint, euro reflectors.
I was just going to post the same thing. Mine came on a couple of days ago and I have an appointment next week.
I am also noticing some sluggishness and abnormal running. Not major but very slight.
The real way I noticed the engine performance is that I thought I was forgetting how to drive a stick. My starts and 2nd gear shifts where not as smooth and I was trying to figure out what the hell was going on. Are my motor skills going to shit? Then a day later I got the warning message. It is almost like I am getting a low RPM hesitation. Then I add a little more foot and next thing I know I am slipping the clutch. I also notice a little hesitation from 1000 - 2000 RPM.

Dang VT that is another level higher of emissions malfunction.
I think they might be talking about this kind of emissions malfunction error.
it happened to me back in oct 2005 and it never happened again. I didnt even take it in. I made an appoitment and it went away 2 days later and never came back. *knock on wood* 545 times....

Hey - I got this error message a few days ago, but I'm not facing any of the acceleration or hesitation issues. I have an appointment on Tuesday for a checkup, but i'm not sure what i'm in for. I'm out of warranty but have the mnt. package still.
Anyone have any insight? what I might be facing cost wise?
