My BMW has started to stall when I am driving in lower gears and when I am at a standstill ie traffic lights and have no feet on the peddles it continues to rev the engine? I seemto be using a lot of petrol as well... I have taken the car for a service and it is since I had it serviced that the symtoms have become worse...the garage say they donot know what is causing the problem?
