My Ride: 325ci Performance

pc control tells trouble on the 4 cilinder,change the ignition coil and the same... can be the trouble the spark plug or the injection valve? spark plugs are ngk and have 20 000km thanks |

Stay stock my friends!

It could be either the plug or the injector...you did change the coil boot with coil I assume? I'm not sure you can even get the coil without the boot, but I don't know.
Your plug might just be loose...

I would try a compression test and a leak-down test. It sounds like there is something wrong with that cylinder head, valves, piston, etc.

Was the compression test done correctly? Dry or wet? Hot or cold? Also, we have no idea what those numbers mean, so we can't really tell if those are within spec. But usually if all cylinders are within a few % of each other, thats a good sign.
Also, a leak down test is more accurate than a compression test, but the tester is much harder to find.

usually with that specific kind of missfire/fuel cut off, its caused by compression.

This doesn't mean that there isn't a problem. A true leak-down tester can show you more specifically where a potential problem is. Google it. They are cheap.
Or...just keep throwing parts at it...
