Need advice: Follow-up overhead console drip

[Last5oh]

This is a follow-up to this thread: http://www.xoutpost.com/x5-e53-forum/...d-console.html

I took the X5 to the dealer to diagnose the cause of the drips. Mind you I put the car through a touch-less wash 2 days ago with no dripping noted. Still I took it in because one does not expect vehicles especially $70K+ ones, to leak. The SA said it may have been possible that the drains FROZE and clogged during the cold spell and have since thawed.

The SA also warned me that should it be a weatherstrip problem, that weatherstrips are NOT COVERED by the CPO warranty.

If they blame a non-CPO warranty cause, what are my options? Can this be appealed? Regular warranty ended 3 mos ago. Funny how problems seem to be programed to pop-up after warranty expires.

Oh BTW.. I got a nice 2009 323i with only 2,000 miles on it for the day.
