o hi.

the codes were cylinder 2 misfire. Have yet to flip a coil with it, but I'm pretty positive that' it. Probably going to source a new one from the dealer.

finally got around to putting a fresh coil in cyl 2 and its practically perfect throttle and idle. For once I feel like I did something right, until tomorrow when I update saying it blew up (cross fingers)

Great, I just had the same thing happen. I'm glad I have all of these spare lying around.

when I tested the coil on cyl 2 and unplugged it, idle didn't get much worse. So I guess it was sparking but not enough. the hairline crack did enough to it I guess, so the new coil makes such a huge difference

I have some swap questions and was wondering if someone can shed some light on this. The car is running, but is throwing the following codes: I can't seem to find where to hook up the secondary O2 sensor. Could there be some connection I'm missing? Second is the vacuum valve for the exhaust and third the ABS light after the cluster swap. Any clues to fixing this? Any information would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Thanks. For the o2 sensor. Right now the secondary o2 is bypassed. I am using the stock 318ti harness. Is there way to connect the secondary o2 to the pre-exsisting harness, or will this have to be swapped for the entire 328 unit?
