Well he kinda looked at me funny when I asked about this. He also kinda seemed puzzled that I mentioned how the mirror is a common problem for E53's as well as what I thought the steering issue was. So my question is...is it best to just act dumb sometimes?

Clearly after living on this site as much as some of us do, we clearly are going to pick up on a few more things than others. I certainly dont know everything but would like the chance to open up a dialog with the service rep. But maybe I should just say "here, its broke, figure it out" and thats it?
