Take crap, put up with crap and go salute the dealer flag and

But why should they, when guys like you will keep buying it and making
excuses? It's just that you're so in love with the vehicle, you act
like it's your girlfriend, not another product. And for the record,
someone asked what the deal was with people talking
about changing replacing the expansion tank as normal maintenance.
I guess he's one of those negative bashers that found that unusual too.
All I did was tell him that they have an unusually high failure rate.
At which point Crystalworks related his shop experience. Amazing
how you can't stand anything on your precious BMW being crap.
No, it's all just a perfect German wonder machine.
