^*&(%!
Here's #8.... This morning I checked the oil during a gas stop on the way to my ski area and found some brownish-white creamy engine jizz on the dipstick and inside the oilcap. I turned around and went home (60 miles) rather than risk breaking down in the middle of nowhere. No noticable performance probs yet, and it starts and drives perfectly fine for now. Taking it to my indy mechanic when he opens shop this morning. I wonder which kidney I'm gonna have to sell.... *updated* 7 codes come up on the ODB: - Thermotat stuck open - Misfire cylinder 2 - Misfire cylinder 4 - Fuel running lean - yada yada brake lamp - yada yada gas cap loose - and a minor one I can't remember *update #2 - 2/15/08* Thermostat stuck open, engine not heating up = moisture buildup and fuel running lean. The electronic t-stat was replaced; All O2 sensors inspected and cleaned (which were all covered in dirt). $75 for the electronic t-stat, $20 for the BMW coolant, and $150 for labor, total $245. Problem solved.
