I don't believe it! I'm on my third, this one with 80k miles, and NOTHING like this has happened to any of mine, nor to the guy who introduced me to BMW 11 years ago. For some unknown reason, people seem to think that BMW's and other higher end or lux cars never need maintenance, or that parts never break or malfunction. Strange, isn't it? They are, after all, still a bunch mechanical and electronic parts that must work together, and things DO go wrong or break. But regular maintenance takes care of them.

And we DO tend to drive these cars a bit more aggressively than other brands.

I am in Western New York, where the winters are tough. Snowy and icy roads are routinely salted, snow and slush is normal driving for 4 months every year, and my '06 4.4 Sport is fine. My only problem, other than normal maintenance, has been the blue tooth element, and that was replaced under warranty a couple of years ago.

So, I am very suspicious of this poster.
