I guess it will depend on many factors.

x3 is my 2nd car ( 3rd transportation, using the train here ).

so,
- it sleeps outside at -20°C for weeks
- it does about 40-50 km /week (daycare , groceries)
- battery never get to T° , or be charged with the alternator.
- gas get old

right now, im just not clearing the code anymore, using the 1st car more.
Anyway it wont go on the highway. even with power limitation, its fine.
will figure this out when it will be warmer.
Pretty sure this is related to coil packs. Im used to this issue, I own german cars
