I always wondered how this could be explained. Unfortunately that tech abondoned ship before I could ask, but not before he had my axle assembly replaced...

What's amazing is that the BMW techs he left behind have so far performed spectaularly on my car.
I luv when dealerships let there tech talk to there customers......These shop are f*cking idiots, why do you have an ADVISOR for then......i had a tech at nissan tell me my motor went on my last car b/c of the header. .....i asked him how he came up with that conclusion....he said "cuz there was to much back pressure and it caused the motor to fail....last time i checked, a header reduces back pressure let alone up a motor.....i asked what tests did they do to find this out....he took my valve cover off.....i said " and what did you see, my cams" ??? fckin idiots. it was my head gasket the whole time which i been telllin them and i changed also and it worked fine.
