My 08 1er is testing my patience
So, I got the car back from my daughter, whom is ok with normal maintenance but obviously not this car.
BMW wanted $7816 to replace all the injectors (misfire on cylinder 3) And do the valve cleaning. They also said there was a leak at the base of the oil filter housing and would have to disassemble half the engine to get to it. I have replaced all the coils. No more misfire. I looked everywhere for an oil leak at the filter housing, I can't find anything. The valve cleaning I can do myself for about $100 in walnut shells and /or baking soda. AND, to top it off. The dealershit left the rear housing cover off my drivers side headlight. It got soaked and my Xenon quit working as well as my headlight aiming system is showing a fault. I took it apart, cleaned all the residue out of the bottom from the ballast and motor control boards and my lights work now but my headlight aiming is still showing a fault. This was a Penske branded dealer. They denied touching the light. One more issue. I took the seats out to clean the car and my passenger seat is showing a restraint, air bag or tensioner not working fault. I double checked the connections, big yellow one and small piggyback 2 wire and both seem fine. Does the seat sensor affect the airbag system if it is malfunctioning? Where is it located? |

with 7,816 you could get a whole second motor and build it. they want that just for injectors? what a bunch of clowns. I would have literally laughed in their face if they told me that quote
