A weak mixture could cause a misfire because of a faulty O2 sensor.I have just notice that I did not performed the test properly. On the USA forum I have found a similar topic and people over there they have replaced an Air Valve/Oil seperator - part number is A275 010 02 91
I should have the part at the end of this week. What else could cause missfire? Could it be fuel filter?
Watch the video in the link I posted.Thanks guys for the reply. I know from the other forum that people also had a faulty O2 sensors and they were causing missfires on the last 3 cylinders - I have no idea how this is possible. One coil pack is brand new, the other is from v12icpack in states. It is working fine. Iginition Coil Packs, Voltage transformer etc. all good 100%.
Looking at the O2 sensors itself can you see anything irregular that would show there might be a problem with them? I do not know if this is correct but I was told that two O2 sensors after the exhaust should show the steady line where the other two O2 sensors before catalic converter should fluctuate? Is this right?
On M275 engines, its very important to determine the characteristics of the misfire.
Your fault is unlikely to be O2 sensor related. Check your long term and short term fuel trims. If they are pegged on one bank, then maybe you have an O2 sensor issue. The inlet manifold is shared between all cylinders and does not tend to leak on these unless disturbued.
You are correct, pre cat O2 should switch rich/lean like that, post cat O2's should be a flat line (if the CAT's are working correctly)
You could have an injector issue as well.
Under what state does it misfire? Does it run on 9 cylinders straight after its starts, or does it run on 12 then drop down to 9 after 30 seconds? Is it only under load that it msifires? etc?
