Misfire reoccur??

Chrisred · 05-13-2012, 05:27 PM

Can a misfire reoccur on same cylinder if all spark plugs been replaced and that same injector and coil have also been replaced.

Changed cyl 2&3 coils and injectors like 8 months ago. Just reinstalled tune and now a misfire on cyl 3 plus loss of power on wot with increased boost. Also sounds like. Subaru with exhaust lol

You might have to change spark plugs again... I had my plugs replaced by BMW and only about 12,000 miles later, I started getting misfires. Replaced spark plugs and misfires are completely gone. And the plug that was in the misfiring cylinder was visibly worn down more than the other spark plugs.

Could be fuel pump too. But to answer your question, yes, it could be one of the same parts again. It sucks, but it could happen.

Could bad O2 sensors also cause this?? I also get random shaking while driving....

Who installed the parts? Do you know for sure if the injectors were coded properly, or if the coupler rings were installed on the injectors? You'd be surprised how even BMW dealers miss those things. Because even a non coded injector with a missing coupler ring will still work ok for awhile, but throw a tune on it, and will go bad quickly... Dont ask me how I know... Let's just say now that my car is out of warranty, it's never going back to a dealer again!

Update. Did a couple pulls today on map 5. I got that reduced power feeling and CEL flashing. Codes are misfires on 4 5 6 cyl and on multiple cyl plus the obvious lambda codes. Yesterday the misfire was only on cyl 3. Weird.....
