Idle speed control
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
For idle speed control, the Digital Engine Electronics (DME) control the following factors:
- Air mass (via Valvetronic and electrical throttle-valve actuator)
- Injected fuel quantity
- Point of ignition.
The set engine speed when idling depends on different conditions, for example coolant temperature or power requirement of the auxiliary components.
