If the Trans Fail Safe came on at any other time, wouldn't that be stored? Even if it was cleared, there might be a service history of it. I would talk to the SA that is dealing with your car locally to check the service history prior to you buying the car. I was able to find mine had been in for a coolant leak and not repaired (even under warranty) by the dealer.

The SA probably won't give you a copy of the service records as they claim it's proprietary information...but at least you'll know the facts about the car.

Did you get your title yet?

I wonder how your bank would feel about that? You could talk to them about your options and their options about canceling the check based on you not receiving the title. They have a vested interest in the car too. Your temp tags should only be good for 30 days right? How can you even drive the car without proper registration?

Again, just random thoughts.

Seriously tho, I considered jsut going down there and test driving an M6 and mistakently putting it into the guardrail during a testdrive. And then maybe I'd try the X5 M and oops did it again, silly me...

see! now you're talking my language. just because we drive gentlemen's cars doesn't mean we're gentlemen.
i've never taken offense when someone tries to punk me long distance, but when i'm face to face, that means they dont respect you, and that just doesn't work for me.
my father used to say you earn respect thru love or fear, and i don't care which it is.
