So my 08 550i has a weird little sputter/stumble when I turn in sharply. The car doesn’t stall or anything I can just feel a slight miss or stumble. I did a search but didn’t see any common themes in this. Anyone have any ideas ?
No check lights or anything obvious. Car if stock other than a k&n filter which came with the car. Changed the coils and plugs today as a maintenance item since they looked to be original and the car is at 128k. Car runs good other than this minor hiccup.

Sounds like a leak to me. That's the only time I get stumbling. Twice it's happened to me in different places. I have a make shift smoke machine and it hasn't failed me yet
