N53 specialist required NE London or surrounding
Discussion
I bought an n53 engined e60 525i and have been used to a bit of a rough idle from cold for the past few months. No codes were being thrown up.
A normal CEL has just appeared and a half filled CEL is now flashing beneath it in the bigger diaplay and the car did not want to start but has just soldiered home on reduced power, about 5 miles.
Reading around suggests anything from coils to injectors and HPFP. Unfortunately I don't have too much time to hunt this down, so can anyone recommend a specialist near North East London that preferably won't pull my pants down!?
Thanks

I attempted to find a specialist when I was having issues with my n53. Didn't find one in the end but it turned out my local knew a bit about them and switched around some coils as it's been ok since. It could be coils, knackered injectors, spark plugs or a combo of all 3. I recall that the NOX sensor can also cause problems.
I spoke with a place called Gilbert's who seemed to know a fair bit about them, they are over in west London though.

Not used them personally (as the problem was solved with new coil packs) but when I had a similar issue Highams Park Motor Company was recommended to me as the place to sort it.
