id happily pay £200 for the pipe,
however the fact that bmw have said they wont honor the warranty if any engine issues arise once its fitted just gets me fuming.

Im aiming to buy the 1 series 3dr (crash damaged) then m5(e39) m3 (e46/e90) and z4 (M) parts along with genuine 1M wings/bumpers off salvage sites/ebay etc, i reckon it'l owe me less than half the money the 1m owes me,.

i see why people ignore the warranty etc as although my pal works at my dealership-bmw uk are wank3rs and are the reason im thinking of getting out of my 1m.

Im really tempted to buy a 997 911 gt2 as they never seem to brake and if they do =porsche dealerships treat you properly and hand you another porsche to use whilst they fix it.


i really think we should get on bmw's case and demand a re call to fix the pipe and obd issue?
