What's the dumbest thing your BMW dealer has told you lately?

I searched around for a thread like this but didn't find anything.
The purpose of this is to get a good laugh at some of the dumbest things your dealer has told you lately about your car, ex. transmission grinding noise but dealer says car checks out ok.
Tell us how you diagnosed the problem and how you fixed it
I think it will be fun to hear some of your guys' stories.

I'll go first.

I talked to the service manager at one of the local dealerships to find out what it would cost to get my DRL switched off, after I explained to him what I meant (since he had no clue what I was talking about) and that their computers can turn on/off certain options on the cars computer, he came back and quoted me about $150-$200 minimum.
I said no thanks.
I have now bought the NCS/INPA software for around $45 and will be turning the DRL off myself and using it on another family members bimmer
