Well i threw a very intermediate code that flashed on and off twice on a quick pull to 60 in second. Iv never thrown this code since iv had the car for three weeks. The code is for cylinder 3-4 knock sensor. I just did a coolant flush and swapped for the green **** the po had in it to BMW blue. I have always used 93 octane and most of it, including this fill-up is at a mobile. Could it have anything do to with that ******** 10% ethanol that they put in our gas. Car is a 95 M3 5spd w/ no mods.

PS: The new honda coolant is exactly the same as BMW coolant. Same levels of silicates and all that ********. It would be a good thing to know, unfortunately my cost for Honda coolant (I work at a dealer), is $25 a gallon and it is predilluted, but id figure id mention it anyway.

how?

exactly the same as BMW coolant
Reboot and clear the codes and see if it throws that code again, might be a fluke.
