Re water pump, how long are they supposed to last? Mine was 8 yrs before I was stranded on the hwy, not sure if that was good, apparently the dealer said it was better than avg?

Even before these most recent BMW designs, they were already going nuts w overly-exaggerated bodywork in their M models...are they making cars or fighter jets? LOL. Generally-speaking, Volvos, Mazdas, and, heck, even KIA it seems, all have more tasteful designs.
I don't like the plastic oil filter housing, but it is easily replaced with a metal one. My Volvo had so many inherent design problems that are impossible to rectify.
