My E36 328i has just had a problem and recovered all by itself - I'm wondering what it might have been and is it likely to happen again...
I'm guessing you'll need more information than that, so - it wouldn't start last night. It turned over fine and fast, plenty of battery power there. Didn't fire at all. There was a whirring from the lower back nearside of the engine with the ignition on, but I don't often listen to it normally so I don't know if it always did that.
Tonight I came home expecting to get into checking spark, fuel, fuel pump and associated electrics, tried it first and it spluttered a bit then ran fine. Took it for a succession of longer and longer test drives and all seems 100% fine.
Leading up to this I had filled it to the brim at the weekend then went for a long and fairly enthusiastic A-road drive for an hour and a half, parking it tail-up on a gently sloping drive.
It then sat for a couple of days until we tried to start it late last night.
Any ideas what it might have been?
