I was changing my spark plugs today. The first one went smooth, the second one the coil broke clean off right around the spark plug. I've tried getting out the rest of the rubber from the coil around the spark plug, but no luck. I pieced everything back together, the car will start and run, but misfires when driving and looks like there is quite of bit of fuel not being burned off and coming through the exhaust.

Any ideas on how to remove the remander of the coil? If I can't get this figure by tomorrow, I'll just flat bed it to the dealer on Monday. I don't know of any other options.

I used an angle pick and stabbed it, and pulled the rest off.

I haven't had any luck. I've done some searches and it looks like others have had this problem also with the coils breaking off. It's ridiculous you can't even change spark plugs in this car.

Just an update incase anyone else experiences this. The tow was covered under BMW Assist, the coil was replaced under warranty, the only thing I payed for was the install/labor for the remaining spark plugs.
