I just got The Red Car* back from having the 12 15 14 done, and I've got to say, the car now drives like it's supposed to for the first time in the FSM knows how long - it feels Touched by His Noodly Appendage. I'd had a regional guy come in and say some incantations over it last summer, and while it improved for a while it eventually overwrote itself back into trying to kill me when turning into traffic.

My current plan is to run it for around 90 days or so, and if all remains good I'll probably throw a PPK at it. If not, it'll be time to order an M2 or M235/240 or whatever it gets called.

BMW Woodlands has been a tremendous help with this (unlike a certain unnamed dealership within walking distance of my office that used to have great service but ran off all the good techs).
