Question 320i 2008 ED Support Required

Hi,

Please would it be possible for someone to give me some advice as last week I purchased a used 2008 320i Msport ED coupe from blue bell BMW in Wilmslow.

Exactly 1 week later it started to judder in second gear and the yellow engine warning light came on it did this twice so I dropped it back of at the dealership.

as it was with them for 5 days I knew there was some kind of problem.

while it was away I started to do some reaserch (I know you should do your home work first)

I received it back today and after reserching I some how knew what the problem was

1x coil 1x spark plug and 1x injector on cyl number 1 (penny pichers should have changed all 4!

anyway the car now feels better than it did when I first collected it on the day of purchase as at first it felt a bit jumpy.
I put this down to me being new to the car but now I really think differently.

I have owned many cars in the past and I am no stranger to the dealer being a scapegoat for the brand and that was my reason for changing my reliable golf gti mk5 to a BMW 3 series.

is there a real fix for the 320i and if not what are my options?

the car looks great but I need it to also be reliable and my current opinion/experiance is worried
