My wife has a 06 4.4 which she bought new. We took it to the dealer for a transmission issue, air bag light, LED out on instrument cluster, and driver door not opening.

They fixed the trans for 1 hour labor (see my reply on another thread... 1500rpm surge

Estimate to fix door handle $440

Estimate for air bag light free because of some safety thing

Estimate for new instrument cluster grid, $400

The service advisor told me to try calling BMWNA Customer Service and ask for some good faith help with repairs.

We ended up paying $240 total for all repairs.

BMWNA just looked at the fact we have bought 4 new BMW in 10 years and helped us out.
