nail/screw in tire...what to do?
Any of this happen with anyone--I'm planning to take it to goodyear place tomorrow morning, and hopefully won't have to deal with the Richard at the dealership who wants me to just shell out $500 without asking any questions. Advice needed!!

Most runflats can be repaired, with the following qualifiers:
My tire store asked how low the tire had gone, how far and how fast I had driven on it. Since I could answer those questions, they were fine with repairing it. If I had said I drove 100 km at high speed, for example, they would have declined to repair it, and rightly so.

I had a nail and lost pressure in my other X5 35i and Goodyear Tire patched it for $50 no problem. The nail was in the middle of the tread so it was okay to repair. Same Dunlop tire.

well, my story got more interesting with some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that my tires are actually Bridgestone (rather than Dunlop), which has no manufacturers road hazard warranty. The good news is that after driving home from the BMW dealer, i can no longer find the screw in my tire, and my pressure has not changed.
Problem solved. If only everything worked out like this.
