I have the same problem with my 2001 540i. I basically got the same response from BMW Canada. They claimed that the vehicles are built to different specifications than their counterpart U.S. vehicles, and so they will not offer warranty repair. That's bull crap as far as I'm concerned. Yes one cluster is in km/hr and the other is in miles/hr but they are literally the same. BMW Canada is basically taking the easy way out. The prices they set for parts here are redicilous too. I get everything from the U.S. and save money even after paying for shipping, duty and taxes.

With the Canadian dollar almost on par with the U.S. dollar, why is there like a 20 grand difference in price when buying the same car here vs down south???
