I WASN'T PREPARED FOR THAT, OR HAVE HEARD OF SUCH A THING. AFTER RESEARCHING IT SEAMS TO BE A BMW PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS. I LITERALLY JUST GOT MY CAR BACK FROM MY LOCAL BMW DEALER IN CHARLOTTSVILLE VA SAME DAY.SPENT A LOT OF MONEY ON THIS CAR AND PLANNED ON KEEPING IT FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER 7 YRS OR MORE. USUALLY IF YOU MAINTAIN YOUR CAR IT WILL LAST FOREVER, BUT GUESS NOT IF THE ACTUAL DEALER DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO MANUFACTURER ONE CORRECTLY. THIS WAS A CAR I ALWAYS WANTED BMW IS KNOWN LUXURY AND SPORT . JUST CRAZY THEY DO NOT RESPECT THE CUSTOMERS MORE THAN THEY DO.
