thrust bushing: no comment; MMT will know & hopefully answer
2mm brakes: really, really low. Need to be changed ASAP Changing front pads it is!

I too know the Ottawa dealers well; I take what they say with a grain of salt and, like you, I ask around for 2nd opinion.
Thank you very much for your input! I deal with Otto's BMW and my SA has always been very transparent and honest with me and he's probably one of the bigger reasons I service at the dealer. But, I agree, it doesn't hurt to get a 2nd opinion as I know that it is the tech who usually communicates the recommendations to the SA.
