Hi,
I recently bought a 2005 z4 with the 2.0 engine.
On my way back home the engine light appeared and the noise of the engine became rougher.
I had a check with a OBD reader and had a P1170 code.
Here is the noise it makes. And I smell there is a lot of exhaust gas coming quickly around the car.
Can you say me if it sounds like a cracked manifold?
Thanks all, Franklin

JohnnyEssex is the expert on the 2.0, as think he’s had every light imaginable come up at some point

Pretty hard to tell from the video but I'm afraid to say that P1170 codes are usually a cracked manifold yes. Either that or lambda sensor but that tends to throw up an additional code.
