Not identical cars, but e53s have reported the problem...see link,
especially post from Tominizer, a fellow Toronto poster near bottom
of first page.
Search Tab, on this site, is also your friend...there is very little that
has not already come up on the Juke Box and has been answered
previously. Good luck on the fix; the idiot stlr should cover it, but
they are inclined to toss you, out of Standard Procedure, as you
may be out of warranty.
