Thanks Dave, it's just noticeable at that lower steady speed, higher steady speeds it doesn't seem t happen, there is an occasional hesitancy to accelerate when 'floored' mind. Think the scan step is required!

1st The temperature sender in the water pump housing is dual purpose it sends a signal to the DME which interprets that for both Oil Temp and Water Temp I would change it when changing the Thermostat
If the Aux Water Pump isn't recirculating coolant, (1) is the Coolant level correct (2) You can hear the Aux Pump running but it doesn't seem to be moving coolant so check the Coolant valve on the nearside inner wing (not uncommon for these o fail)
Is the noise the Vacuum pump (constant) or the Emissions air pump stops after a short while?
If all sensors are operating as they should there could be a problem with the cluster it is better to repair the original if you can there are a few companies who do it ECU Testing or Cartronix come to mind.
Good luck

Welcome to the Forum
If you drop down a gear or two to increase revs what happens? When was the car last serviced ? A misfire could be Coil Pack failing Plug failing a vacuum or air leak on the inlet, I would start with a diagnostic scan and go from there.

Welcome to the Forum
Very pretty
You should find the service history in the iDrive/Connected Drive or a good BMW Dealer should be able to help (they may well charge) They will need proof of ownership and your Vin
With your car only covering 27k and extended service intervals now common place it may be it has only had it's PDI
As for Warranty talk to BMW service if your car has a BMW history they should offer an extended warranty (not cheap but comprehensive) If they can't help then search the open market.

Hi Guys
Big believer in owners clubs, I've just bought a 69 reg 240i with only 27K from Evans Halshaw, I am loving it but need to sort out missing service history and get a proper warranty in place.
I'm retired and have had various nice cars, Boxster, Golf R, Mazda MPS, but just decided I wanted a last hurrah while I'm still fit!
So far I am loving this car, it is so quick and smooth and apart from a tiny ding in boot, I can't see a mark on it.
Please forgive me if I ask lots of stupid questions.
Dave
