After spending a little time in Germany I understand that these are just over engineered to ridiculous tolerances and don't like anything but the most accurate of everything.
The more I read, the more I realize that BMW in particular just want to replace everything because their cars can't handle a little variance. I like the performance, but I've dealt with race vehicles in the past and how finicky they are. It's a nuisance. In contrast, I also bought a 2005 VW diesel (pre-drama), and it would run on kerosene and whisky, through a snow storm, with me lighting the interim on fire, and just keep driving. Boring, slow, drives like a wet sponge, but reliable.
Performance has a price.
