[QUOTE="tank34, post: 124885, member: 1332"] Hi all, the dreaded Ignition Coil problem has struck again. Started the car yesterday for the first time and it started to "Vibrate" more than usual and immediately suspected coil problem. Called AutoBav toll free number for help and they said should be ok to drive to Sg. Besi centre. The drive to the centre was fine but everytime I stopped at a traffic lights, the car would vibrate and it would be very obvious to other cars on the road, it's like "Hey, why is this Beemer shaking like that reaction....". Anyways, Hairul from Sg. Besi did a diagnostic and confirmed coil in Cylinder 2 not working and since the car was only "out" of warrant 4/5 months ago, he agreed to apply for "good will" which was really good of him. Did not check whether they replaced with the Bosch coil but Hairul did say that it's about RM150 per coil, before labour I believe. Car is 325i E46, I believe production date 7/2003. So I believe the problem still affects car that were produced pre-2004. [/QUOTE]
