m54b25 low rpm stutter

since about 3 days ago my e39 started to stumble at low rpm, whenever i go past 1/4 throttle between 1400-1900 rpm there is very noticeable jerking. A few days earlier i did the vcg and sparkplugs and noticed higher carbon deposits and unburnt gas on two plugs. I also did the intake boots today in hopes of getting rid of a CEL caused by bank 1 and 2 fuel trim codes(smoke test revealed holes). This evening i took the car for a spin (1 heat cycle, about 50km), i did not delete the codes nor the adaptatioms yet since i dont have an obs scanner readily available. Unfortunately the jerking is still present. Should i wait for the ecu to readapt or should i immidiately replace the coils? The last time i read codes was before the issue was there, and there were no misfire codes. When the rpms go past 2k there are no misfires even under maximal load. Where do i take it from here? Disa seems to be operating correctly.

Strange PDC behaviour

I recently bought a 2002 525i, ever since i got the car whenever the pdc turns on there is one beep that lasts about a second coming from the rear and the pdc led is flashing, when i checked the sensors for ticking it seems that all of then are constantly ticking regardless of the fact that there isnt anything close nearby, any ideas? does paint stop the sensors from working?
