Had the ECU replaced before the bike was ever delivered. A little after the first inspection, the bike started to show some of the signs of the bad ECU, however. Stalling on first start and touchy throttle for a minute or so. Rock steady idle, however and great throttle response. Took the bike in and the dealer (different from the selling dealer) confirmed it has the new ECU. There are no codes set. His answer - "BMWs don't even break in until 12 - 15, 000 miles, it will probably get better after you put some miles on it."
Well one, I don't think the buyer of a new 7 series would get the same answer if their new $75,000 car did the same thing, and two, I don't put a lot of miles on. It won't even be broken in by the end of warranty.
Any thoughts? Has anyone had this problem with a good ECU? Should this "clear up" after it breaks in?
Thanks
