e85 2.0i misfire

Post by Eddy Matthews » Thu Sep 07, 2017 10:17 am

Hi guys,

My 2.0i Z4 seems to have a slight misfire - It is most noticeable on tickover when the engine seems to miss and "hunt" slightly. It's not really noticeable when driving, other than the car doesn't seem to like low revs - But since I'm new to my Z4 maybe that's normal? It only really pulls away cleanly at 1600rpm or higher. below that it's just flat, and no real power. The car has only done 41000 miles.

Haven't had any codes read, just wondered if you guys could point me in the right direction?

Regards
Eddy

Code reading is a must as a starting point - Post your location and I'm sure someone will offer to do it for you.
