Just saw this on another forum about the N62 4.4 engine service bulletin for intermediate levers:
Car has been in service for two weeks now!!! - 5 Series Forums
Sounds like my issue because I didn't see any oil leaks anywhere. Killcrap, thanks for pointing me towards the lever issue. I'm out of warranty, but have an aftermarket one. Since this is a legit BMW SIB, would this be covered by BMW or through my aftermarket warranty? Obviously, I can't do anything until i get the codes read, but trying to get myself prepared.
