so they wouldn't take it back. The friend of a friend who's a lawyer ended up correcting themselves saying i could make them take it back in court only if they refused to fix it. But they told me they would fix it and ship it back to me. They just called me today saying they replaced the turbo wastegate solenoid and a few hoses i asked for a list of work done and parts replaced so i'll see exactly what they did once they email me. Also plan to take it BMW as soon as it arrives for a full inspection for peace of mind. anything else i should plan to do once it arrives? sell it? lol

sophisticated redneck: thank you for all the info! you mentioned how the wastegates can be adjusted. is there a way i can check too see if they adjusted vs replaced them?
