engine misfire with no CEL???
I have a 2007 530xiT with 117,000km. Recently, I have noticed some issues when I slow down to 20km/h and re-accelerate. There is a slight hesitation when re-accelerating, I suspect a misfire but there is no CEL.
Also around 80km/h (constant speed), while cruising on the highway, there is a feeling the car is pulling/pushing.
Not sure if it is engine related or transmission because on 2 occasions while re-accelerating from 60km/h to higher speed, I felt a jolt.
I scanned the car, no error codes.
Do I just wait and monitor???

FWIW, I had micro cracks on a set of coils on another car which would provide inconsistent hesitation and stumbles here and there but not be enough to trigger the CEL.
The micro cracks did act up though more when it was humid or raining. One way you can check beside visually looking at them under a magnifying glass is to mist some water on top of them and see if the car runs rough in any way.
