Hi all
My 320d coupe is struggling to start on a morning. It starts on the second attempt then a plume of white smoke comes out the rear. It runs rough for around 10 seconds then it’s good to go. This only happens on a cold. Most days.


The following codes appear on BimmerLink:-

4E04: 4E04 Swirl flap actuator, position control

481A: 481A particulate filter system

Just wondering what it could be?
