Btw., strange thing happened this morning. After driving for a couple of minutes, I stopped at a coffee shop. When I wanted to start the car again, it wouldn't start. Ignition and starter engine would work and you could hear the starter motor trying as if the combustion chamber was choked up. Tried for 2 ins without luck. Waited five minutes and it started without any issues like ever before. Maybe the sudden moist in the air? Anybody experienced that before?

This happened twice on my 13 M5, both in the very cold weather. The diagnostic system will indicate misfire, but dealer can only take your car for "a overnight test drive" and just return it to you with some extra miles. So my suggestion is simply ignore it

Happened to me a few months ago and turned out to be a faulty O2 sensor which was replaced under warranty.

Oh yeah...I just did the same thing (spacers on 343s) this past weekend...

I'm now staring at an inch and a half of new snow.
