Thank you Alex for your help and the photo. Are you in US or Ukraine? I am in Serbia (for the last 3 years). I may buy the tool once I have someone who can bring it to Serbia. For now, I will have a friend/mechanic (not really a BMW mechanic but can do some work on it) check the compression and clean the throttle body.

I ordered 3 ignition coils because they didn't have more original parts. I will get the rest as soon as they get some more.

I will also look into the link you gave me although, my problem is not related to cold start. I have seen that before but couldn't find anyone else having the same issue as me.


I will post my results as I check things.


Thanks again!
