You're a lucky sob. I got 2 bad apples I suppose. My indy just mentioned BMW charges 3k for a new engine with all the accessories that go with it. Cheap right! No. Just applying more makeup on an ugly pig. Problems galore so they give folks a little break on cost knowing this keep brand loyalty. Only quick fix option they based upon keeping us brain washed for these cars. Hell, I still am.
I learned long ago to avoid BMW V8's after my dad's E39 540i and my friend's E38 740i. Their Inline-6's are much less problematic.
