Please let me know what you find out about this error. There is a Coil that sets directly over each spark plugs in my e39 530i. The coil is connected to the plug. with a rigid connector about 4 or 5 inches long. Mark |

That misfire is the result of a failing coil or a damaged spark plug.
The coil has to be removed to get the plug out, so removal of the plug should put your hands directly on the failed/failing part. You can swap the coil to a different plug, and if the Code jumps to the new location, then the coil is needing to be replaced.
