Thanks for the tip.

Interesting thought - but it sounds like the kind of thing that would probably involve several trips back and forth to the dealer, with escalation to a regional rep, and finally to BMWNA, and possibly only end up with an offer to cover partial cost or something. The closest dealer to me is about 90 minutes away, which makes things a little more complicated.

Did you get it covered under warranty or dis you do the job yourself? And where did you see that it was covered? I looked in the warranty guide and it showed that the cats and the "engine control module (including onboard diagnostic system)" are covered by the 8-year/80K mile federal emission warranty.
