Cleaning it out (and BMW do sell a diaphram kit for it) every Inspection I would eliminate many of the problems owners have.

I'm confused.  How do we explain my other cars with no "cheese wiz" with the same commute? X3, 550i, 3.4 miles to work, 3.4 miles back, weekend groceries 6 miles away, 12 miles round trip? Hmmm...
