UPDATE :
As of today, BMW NA are working with my stealer and may have their roving tech specialist look at the vehicle at my stealers location.
What swung it was the fact that I cannot get it to exhibit the symptoms at my stealer due to the ambient conditions. The dude at BMW NA tried to tell me that whatever happened, the car would store a code that could be interogated later.
I said "Really, does BMW have a code for a frozen breather hose ? " to which the reply was that they probably do not.
I then added that there is no code that I know of for oil ON TOP OF THE PISTON and the first code to be thrown would be a misfire code about 2/10's of a second before the TERMINAL ENGINE FAILURE code.
We will see... I am not holding my breath.
I will however add the heated jacket for the hoses whatever happens..now I have the price down to $363 in parts.
