You, my friend, just saved me having the car towed 400 miles with AAA, and having to jump through hoops claiming trip interruption from them.

Cleared the codes and we are golden! Smooth as buttah... But I did learn my compression in Cyl 1 is 160 and in 6 it's 120, so that sucks. That's why my plug fouled. But this will get us on the road again!

I owe you so many beers! If you're ever in Orlando let me know!

And to Effduration: I carry a cable and INPA on my laptop always, so I pull the codes myself and reset it as well :-)

Thanks for the tip on where to find a good BMW mechanic!
