M6 misfire

Londonboy · 06-17-2018, 08:54 AM

Hi All

Posting on here as this sections looks a bit more active.

I just bought an M6 from BMW dealer and the car is misfiring and throwing a error message on the idrive.

I don't have a code reader yet and wanted to know what could cause the issue? Do these engine suffer from similar issues like the 335i? (i.e injectors, coilpacks, hpfp, carbon built up?)

I checked the warranty report for my car and it had brand new injectors and spark plugs fitted last year.

The car misfires and there is a strong smell of fuel. Revs are not stable.

Any ideas much appreciated guys.

Either coil or plug or injector
