Anyone with a 2013/2014 335i in Santa Barbara?

I am having a bit of a trouble with my car, after a recent fuel tank replacement. The car does not sound the same at start and at idle.

I was hoping if some fellow member is around and have their 335, we could meet up at a coffee shop or so and I could hear their engine, and have them hear my car's sound. It seems like misfires at low revs and idles, but I could be making it up since I cannot isolate sounds coming from engine and exhaust while sitting in the car.

Thank you guys! Any help is appreciated

If they replaced the tank, some sediment could've gone and gunked up your injectors...

Problem is still persistent. They found a lose exhaust clamp which was fixed. The car ran good for a couple of weeks and its behaving the same way again.

Anyone willing to take a test drive in my car and compare to theirs?

OR any suggestions?
