P01175

Un-metered air leaks may occur in the following areas causing the above situation:

Intake manifold gaskets may be leaking.
Plug cap(s) and the vacuum hose for the fuel pressure regulator on the rear intake manifold cover (crankcase ventilation valve) may be torn or missing.
I would let a BMW Dealer look at it and confirm that this is the problem with your vehicle.

Look at the inlet air boot at the corner where it turns into the idle air control motor, they get old and tear right there. Go to Realoem.com and look up part #13-54-1-437-191 It gives a nice exploded view.

Your problem has nothing to do with a leak between the two-you need to do what was suggested
