Take a look at cleaning the ICV, there is a write up in the knowledge base if I remember correctly.

in the knowlegde base at the top of the page under e36 DIYs its probably going to be a little different on the e46 but should give you a starting point. Because I'm feeling generous here is a link:

ive tried following the directions but there is no way i can get my hands in to remove the icv is there another way i can do this?
Also i think my abs+tc sensors need cleaning is there just 1 at front and back or are they on every wheel and what would be the best way to clean them?
A guide for idiots would be best as i'm new to car diy.
thanks
