Consumer Description

MY BMW LOST POWER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS.IT WAS IN BMW SERVICE FOR 6 WEEKS DISCOVERED A PROBLEM WITH MANIFOLD "LEAKING OIL AND NO POWER TO TWIN TURBO. FACTORY MAN COULD NOT FIND THE CAUSE. THEY HAD TO TEAR DOWN THE ENGINE FINALLY AFTER WE WERE LOSING OUR PATIENCE TO FINALLY "FIND THE PROBLEM". THIS WAS WHEN THE CAR WAS BRAND NEW. HAVE HAD MULTIPLE TRIPS TO BMW SERVICE FOR STALLING AND LOSS OF POWER ON THE ROAD. HAVE HAD TO RESET THE"CARS' "SYSTEM AGAIN ON 2 OCCASIONS.BMW DID EXTEND THE SERVICE WARRANTY ON THE TURBO AND FUEL PUMP. TONIGHT HAD COMPLETE POWER FAILURE ON HIGHWAY. HAD TO STOP AND START AND GO SEVERAL HUNDRED FEET.CAR LIMPED HOME INTO THE GARAGE. IM SURE MY TRIP TO THE BMW SERVICE STATION WILL BE AN EXERCISE IN FUTILITY SINCE THEY TELL ME THE CAR IS FINE. THERE MUST BE SOME ISSUE WITH THE TWIN TURBO ENGINE. *TR
