Leaky index 9's
I just did mine yesterday on a new to me '08 335i I bought at Cobb Luxury Cars in Marietta. Ran good when I test drove and I took it to an indy mechanic in Marietta for a PPI who said it was good. Next morning (it was cold), it sputtered and ran rough about 3 miles before it smoothed out. BMW in ATL took my $345.00 to tell me I needed all new injectors for $3,500.00 installed. I said "no thanks".
I bought 6 new oem injectors from ECS with the little ring thingys for $1,450.00. Installed INPA from Bimmergeeks. Installed myself and coded. So far problem solved. Changing oil today and plan to send to Blackstone for analysis.
The injectors that were in it were index 9 and leaked so bad there was virtually no fuel line pressure when I cracked the nut #1 fuel line. I had let it sit a good while to make sure it was in sleep mode. I kinda dread what Blackstone is going to reveal!!
