Today I started by comparing the TB on both my M30 engine, they were different. But when I looked closer at the 535is TB I notice the 10mm nut was loose. Now I have the car idling better, I also replaced the radiator, and installed an aftermarket trans cooler.

The car is doing better, but still have question about the TB, I think something is missing. I will take pictures tomorrow.

Thanks Sean and Area52 for your support.
