If they just replace your clutch without addressing the cause it will happen again.

I'm still trying to get over the software update to fix a slipping clutch.   |
Yep!!!!! Only the finest from BMW service.... :roundel:

I would mention this possibility to them but then they might keep my car for another month trying to find it! :biggrin:
