I am out of warranty as well. The dealership wanted $2200 for the new CCC. A quick call to BMW NA explaining my situation and that I couldnt believe there was no recall or BMW-backed aid for this rare situation got them to send a representative out to check out my situation.

They backed me up. BMW of NA covered half the parts and labor and discounted the other half.

Exactly what I did: http://www.bmwusa.com/Standard/Content/ContactUs/

good luck man!


EDIT: yea, i had the "battery discharge" as well.. my battery was/is fine... its the CCC... its dead man.

Thanks for the reply glad that it worked out somewhat well for you. I am probably going to take the same actions you did by calling up BMW NA and explain to them my situation and maybe they can help out like they did for you..
