Hello all,
I have an E36 1995 M3, 160,000 Miles of fun.
If i have a drive of about 40 minutes or more, my check engine light comes on and my car feels as if it lost 1 cylinder. I took the car in to the mechanic and he confirned my suspicion because the computer error was "Check cyclinder 4"...I took it to a few mechanics and each told me the computer was reporting a problem with cylinder 4.
What is strange is that the problem goes away..sometimes while i am driving, the engine will suddenly feel stronger and the check engine light turns off...This baffles my mechanic because he said a truely bad cylinder should not run normally...
Has anyone else encountered this behaviour before? What did u do to fix it?
Thanks for any info
