Bernice, I recently had something similar happen with my BMW. I'm still having issues with the car - now I believe it's the cats that need to be replaced but my attention to this came in most unfortunate timing.
Which one of these things doesn't belong?
One of these USED to be a Bosch Platinum 4...
...which destroyed the ignition coil
It's a long, long story but I was fortunate enough to break down TWICE in the same location near Tony Natoli's place in Santa Clarita - once coming south, and the other going north on the 5 freeway.
The car has 217k on it and after the cats get replaced, I'm hoping to take it up to 500k. The problem with my meltdown (also in the #2 chamber) also lead to completely losing the threads in the head so the new spark plug is being held in place with an aluminum insert and Loctite....
