I did check the psi the other day when I noticed the problem... all tires at 40psi, even the baldies.

Thanks :-)
Actually, I should have been more specific. I got 22k out of the first set of front tires but only about 10-12k on the rears. I had a puncture in one of the rears a year after I got the car and the the dealer talked me into replacing both rears because they were quite worn already. Then around 12k miles later, all four needed to be replaced... which I did this past April.
Everything I've read seems to indicate that you really can't expect more than 10-15k out of these tires when they're on the rear... but 3k is just ridiculous, so I'm very curious to see what the dealer has to say about it.
I recall regularly feeling fleeced when leaving the service department of other brands, but since switching to BMW's and their No Cost (aka prepaid) Maintenance, my service visits are much more enjoyable. I'm hoping that doesn't change. :-)
