What exactly are you fighting for? A replacement vehicle? In most states, if the same part fails a third time, you can Lemon Law it.

Our 1er issues all happened under warranty. N54 cars had lots of HPFP issues and BMW issued a longer warranty on those parts. The car was out of service for a cumulative week or so but we had a loaner for all of it.

I'd say that in total, it caused maybe three hours of lost time. Not exactly a huge burden. My M Coupe went a dozen years and 145k miles with no issues. Our 1er was a mess. So far the X1 has been trouble free. I'm debating buying a Mini. I have no issues with BMW reliability.
