My BMW goes out when making a major turn. Sometimes it won’t even start if I don’t add gas. In addition, it has lost its power, that is, it no longer has the “kick” it always had. Please advise.
The problem is BMW 525 E34, but it may also occur in other models.

BMW driver’s question
At low temperatures, the engine is too slow to reach the optimum temperature. It reaches it after about 15-20 km, but after turning the air vents on to heat, the temperature drops again and stays at 3/4 optimum. I replaced the thermostat and the problem remains. I heard that this model uses another thermostat for a small system. Will replacing this part fix the issue?

The problem is that after pressing the accelerator pedal, the car is “wondering” if it should go and only after two or three seconds it starts to accelerate. I observed the phenomenon at speeds from 80 km/h upwards. I have replaced the filters and catalytic converter. What could be the cause, maybe the flow meter?

When the suction is turned off, the engine at idle runs erratically – wavers. I do not know how to deal with this problem. The valves have been adjusted, I replaced the lambda probe, spark plugs and ignition cables. I have cleaned the dome of the ignition apparatus, stepper motor and purged the air flow meter with air. Please advise.

In my car with automatic transmission, after warming up, the third gear does not enter and the transmission goes into emergency mode. On a cold engine/transmission it runs normally. What could this mean?

When starting the car, a message is displayed that rapid acceleration can damage the catalytic converter: “avoid speed acceleration can damage catalisator”. What could be the cause of such a message? At the same time, I will point out that the engine began to make strange noises.
