Hi my BMW keeps cutting out intermittintly. This happens most often when I put petrol in, it cuts out every time i dip the clutch !?? I've had a new clutch, but this problem happened before the new clutch and is still happening after. Also sometimes if i am holding it on the bite for a bit i get a smell of burning rubber/ oil ?
its a bmw 320 i x reg

BMW 318i e46 engine 1998cc. Gearbox does not seem to engage fully when engine is cold in the mornings. Car only moves forward very slowly and only becomes normal after about one to two minutes of engine revving.
