Stupid.... But I can see their point on this. If the previous owner used too much paint and the paint ran over or on the back of the calipers and it affected the machanical parts of the braking system then they do have every right to deny the warranty claim. I hate people who cheap out and paint their calipers. You drive a damn BMW with Brembo brakes. Take them off and have them professionally powder coated. Its not a civic...

Either way, I hope they work with you and replace them. Was the dealer you bought it from a BMW dealer or a private dealer? If it was a BMW dealer then they should take care of it because they let it go that way, if its a private dealer then you are back to the top of this post with them being within their right to deny.

The magnusson moss act covers WARRANTY items. Brakes are covered under BMW's maint. plan and is nothing at all in the same conversation with the Magn-moss act. This is totally BMW's call... Sucks, but im sure they will so right by you.
