My car occasionally activates the check engine, indicating miss fire on cylinder 1 and cylinder 4. I already changed the spark plugs and coils, my mechanic told me that it could be the charcoal filter. Any experience about it?
Have you used a BMW scan tool to look for codes? If it is misfiring noticeably there should be at least a stored code in there. That might help narrow things down.
my 2020 BMW 330i is having the same issue and the Dealership told me it is this "BMW 16 13 7 466 242 Activated Charcoal Filter would this be the same process to change it out ?
As far as I can tell it would be similar. Unfortunately I don't know enough about the later BMWs or the 330i. Might want to look for a workshop manual or access to TIS. I did a quick search but like you may have already found, there aren't many videos or data on that part/car yet :( Sorry!
hey i am in OP KS. Where do you take your 60 to work on it by yourself?
A friend has a workshop where I do most of the work.

Am I correct in thinking that this only applies to petrol engines and NOT diesel variants?
That's correct :)

This charcoal filter on the right or left car?
It’s on the right at the rear. Same side as the fuel cap.
