i guess u mean SWAP the ignition coil right ?

Are you swapping the ignition coil between cylinder 1 and 5 ?
-Problems will still persists for sure becoz u not replacing it.

or you mean swapping NEW ignition coil into cylinder 1 & 5 ??

i have few good condition M54 ignition coil . i don't mind to let you try it.

Why simply go change the air mass & camshaft hall sensor ? is there any fault indicate to change ? or someone recommend you to change ??

you can PM me your ignition coil part number if you want.

I have the exact the same problem with my E46 325Ci but mine with cylinder no 4...

How do you solve the problems bro?

Thanks in advance.
 
marco, send the car to sapura auto.. they will help, since they allow grey imports to be serviced and check..

i can think of a few checks to be done, but it must be the injectors..or ignition..

regards.
 
I believe should be ignition problem.

I had mine misfired cylinder 1 and 5 and the engine vibrate like earth quake when u floored it. normal driving or slow crusing its no problem. Use gt1 to dyno and changed new coil 2 see it solved or not.

Actually i noticed that my spoilt coils if u look carefully in the middle u can see some burnt mark. to show its worn out or malfunction.
