Right on the money, Bosch coils and plugs, OE, seems the Coils are fake, even though got them from Amazon and they were supposed to be the right fit for the X5. I pulled all the coils installed the original ones, one of the originals was bad, one of the coils from Amazon worked have put that in for now, but will probably replace it.

I seem to catch the fake/defective ones often, same happened to one of the plugs I got from FCP for the M4, got replacements from Amazon which worked. But I still feel the car is not as smooth as with the original plugs. I checked the gaps and they were all correct measurements.
