Det under står på engelsk fordi jeg først postet dette på E90post, men jeg ønsker å høre om noen her til lands og vet om noe.
I am having problems diagnosing what's wrong with my N53 325i E90
Some knowns:
I have an small exhaust leak before the NOX cat. Afaik cold idle is homogenous only, but can it still affect things?
All 6 injectors are Index 11, changed under recall in 2014 IIRC
What's happening:
Rough idle on cold motor (gets much worse when its 0*C compared to 10-15*C), sometimes i get a CEL for misfires. In engine idle roughness all cylinders are jumping (some more than others)
ELM327 mode 6 is reporting some misfires, but not enough to warrant the roughness in my eyes (I could be wrong though)
When the engine warms up it seems good and smooth, but i can still see roughness tab in INPA (F5-F7), although smaller.
What I have done:
Changed sparkplugs (Those were due anyways)
First I had two codes for bank 1 pre-cat lambda (2CAA and 2CA6), so I replaced that along with resetting adaptations.
After doing some readaptations, the adaptions was (INPA injector learnbits)
X:O
X:O
O:O
X:X
(along with crankshaft adaptation in F5-F6)
But after running a NOX desulfation program the adaptations changed to
X:X
O:X (somehow unlearned line 2 row 1)
O:O
X:X
I drove for 60-90kmh on CC to set longfuel trim adaptations for 5-10 mins at the time with 5 min idling inbetween
One day I got misfire on cyl 5, so I changed sparkplug with 1 and coil with 3 (the code didn't come back, either on 5, 1 or 3). At the same time I pulled the rest of them to check conditions (here are pictures of the condition, numbers refer to the physical cylinder number)

I also changed the coils on cylinder 4 & 6 (most often I get misfire codes on those), but that didn't make a difference either
Ran through Bimmerprofs guide on MSD80 diagnosing using INPA
-Pre engine start resistance and voltage on lambdas is OK
-On engine (cold) start, the engine usually runs smooth (with a very low lambda, approching 0.8-0.9 until the lambda heaters settle (30-60%) and the integrator goes to between -15% to -25% and Lamda jumping from 0.97 to as high as 1.07 on both banks
-When removing the oil cap the integrators goes to +30% in like two secounds, which would suggest a bad CCV valve according to Bimmerprof, but when I disconnect the CCV hose and plugged the end of the hose I got the same intergrators and lambda readings as with it connected (with oil cap on)
-During the Injector test I got some very confusing Lambda readings when deactivating cylinders. (Cyl are marked in firing order on this page and physical number in parenthesis, and integrator is 0 when deactivating a cylinder)
Bank 1:
Cyl 1(1) deactivated: Bank1 1.21 Bank2 0.93
Cyl 3(3) deactivated: Bank1 1.16 Bank2 0.94
Cyl 5(2) deactivated: Bank1 0.94(!) Bank2 0.90 I got a similar low number on a second test
Bank2:
Cyl 2(5) deactivated: Bank1 0.86 Bank2 1.53(!) I got 1.28 with a slightly warmer engine when i retested it after a couple more minutes of idling.
Cyl 4(6) deactivated: Bank1 0.86 Bank2 1.06
Cyl 6(4) deactivated: Bank1 0.89 Bank2 1.13
After pressing F8 to end the test it returned to a good -9% and -1% integrator with a lambda of 1.00.
But after shutting it off for an hour, the integrator was back to -20% when I started it again.

Does anyone understand what the issue is? I am seeing so many symptoms it has confused me.
