You guys forget; he already knows which cylinder is bad. I agree that swapping coils is the way to go, but I'd also take a look at that plug to see if there might be a sign of head gasket failure.

Thank you for the responses. I know it will pair. I just don't know how to do the initial pairing. And now that I no longer darken the door of my local BMW dealer, it is awkward to go in to have...

I can't speak price, but everything else is good to go. BMW is on top of the engine issues; with the CPO, you're fine.

Love it. I had already ordered my car without it when I read some reviews. Went back to dealer, drove one for about three minutes, and added it to my order. You should test one.
