Possible causes of super tapping? R60 countryman
Hello all,
My car, 13’ R60, shows super tapping. This issue only happens in highway while acceleration. It happens no so often but do occur once in a while. I always fuel it with Shell nitro+. Do you guys have any idea what might be the issue that cause super tapping or potential things to check? Will that be the issue of HPFP?

I have 4 NGK iridium plugs and Bosch coils, ~ 8000 mi. Any thoughts?
x2 plugs and coils, this is the base starting point. While I don't remember a specific mileage number, I had a Bosch coil fail very prematurely. If money is tight, try to get it scanned and see if it is throwing a misfire code for a particular cylinder, and try just replacing on that one. Failing that but following the same principal, try a new plug and coil in each cylinder one at a time. It's unlikely, but hardly impossible, two went bad at the same time.

EDIT: spark plug recommendations, I don't know. I happen to be running some NGK Iridiums that were around $90 for the set of 4 where I live.

I have had new plugs that turned out to bad, its frustrating and can lead you down a wild rabbit hole of diag. That is why now i save the original plugs number the boxes and set them aside and i also number my coils.
