      2015 m4, I used the ngk flex plugs "F8S" gapped at 0.020 as recommended , misfired like crazy under full throttle immediately., So I vhanged to new Ngk "D8S" the 97506 gapped 0.022, misfire went away. Drove amazing for a month but misfire is back at 4k rpms when full throttle, but no check engine light this time.

    I have an e46 and I had all of these symptoms. Shaky gear change, rpm jumping when start, engine shaking, loss of power. I was told the spark plugs were already replaced 10,000 miles ago so I did injectors, Disa valve, idle air control valve, maf air flow sensor because I originally thought it was a vaccum leak. Now I know and it’s fixed. Thank you so much. I was about ready to give up on the car

    My car is definitely doing the jerking , could it also be the coils ? Also you have a great personality! Lol

    • @Edwinf30
      @Edwinf30  Před 2 lety

      It could be, the coils shows the same problems as the spark plugs, so if you plugs are good but you feel the car is not acting right they might be it. Thank you I appreciate it!

    I have the F32 and when driving normally it’s fine. But when I floor it that when it starts to hesitate and jerk. I’m going to replace the spark plugs asap and hopefully it resolves the problem. Great video btw! I was losing my mind trying to explain it to people

      @@Jet3ch so I changed the plugs and it wasn’t that. I then took it to my mechanic and he found that the fuel injector was squirting fuel and a rate too fast in cylinder 1 changed that and there was STILL a problem. Ended up being that there was no compression in that cylinder which subsequently meant that there was a burned valve which would’ve meant I would’ve needed an engine rebuild. My mechanic just told me to sell the car as it wouldn’t be worth it as he may find more problems resulting in sky high costs ☹️
