135i | N54 |diagnosing misfire

Hi Team,

I've recently picked up my first Bemmer an 08 135i Manual with 70,000 kms on the clock completely stock standard.

It starts and goes mint until a sudden hard acceleration. slowly planting the acceleration is fine but in sudden acceleration the car thudds/ jerks and goes into limp mode. bringing a p0305 code. this does not aaalways happen.

To me it seems if it was a coil and/or Spark plugs the car would always be in a rough start/ limp mode / be doing it more often.. yes? No?
(new Vanos + Plugs on the way but..)

would this rather be the injectors not being able to supply the fuel and going bad?

My real question is if it is the Injectors and I take it to a shop.. how will they know what needs done without someone having to take my car for a drive and thrashing it to get the symptoms and the codes to fix the issue?? (I have trust issues)

Also if i take it to BMW (NZ) will they replace because it was an issue prior or would i need to claim on my warranty insurance?

Thanks team!
