This is like the 9-10 issue with this car, thermostat, turbo oil line, gas cap, light issues, shifting problems and so on. And yes it was noticed after the car wash ,just chefs my axx every other month something new. Oh and did I mention it dropped 2/3 in value 9 months after i bought it. Not happy at all.

Understandable, and mostly completely unacceptable.

Straight from BMW parts are definitely expensive, but if you want OEM that's the price you pay. There are alternatives for many things.... but you might need to speak German to code your car ;-) There are models in most manufacturers portfolios that end up having an issue sooner or later. The only way to minimize it is to not get 1st gen releases, make sure you have a comprehensive aftermarket warranty or lease a new car so its always under warranty. I consider leasing to be a terrible option, but to each their own. |
