Remove JB3 and see if it still happens. Do you get long cranks at start up?

They will first try to replace your cam shaft ledge....if the problem still persists, they replace the cam shaft...If you are also throwing vanos codes they will replace those too. (solenoids/pulse wheel) Good Luck! |

I've had this happen in the last two days........codes for cylinder 2 & 3 misfires and codes for random misfire. I just changed my plugs about 4-5 months ago so it probably isn't that. That leaves the injectors to be questioned.
If that happens again, I'm taking it to the dealership and have them check it out and possibly replace the injector(s).

Have they looked at anything else, like the injectors, etc? I tried that this morning, had the PROcede on valet mode(stock) upon start-up, and same codes came up, the cylinders didn't change(2 & 3). Quote:
I'm starting to get JUST engine malfunction lights now, no more SES light.......And the car sounds like it's not getting enough of something......
