Hello all,

I am new to BMW altogether, but not new to DIY. I have decided to go ahead and change parts slated to die around this time, instead of waiting. I changed all of my 6 coils and spark plugs all OEM. Now I have a misfire on cylinder 3. The misfire did not exist before. I also have a sputter now on the muffler side. I checked that they are seated correctly and not too tight. I properly applied the silicon grease and anti seize. Are there any suggestions? Could SP #3 just be bad out of box?

Not too tight? The Bentley manual calls for 23 +/- 3 Nm (18 +/-2 ft-lbs). I handed tightened mine and I got a pre-code on #5 because I didn't tighten it enough with 6" extension compared to the 12" because of the strut brace.

Bosch or NGK? I went from NGK to Bosch and it was much better.
