Wasnt there a valve stem thing too??

I would think a 9 year old car is not going on a BMW dealer used car lot. Probably straight to auction.

Why I shouldn't? This is why I put 5 Year up to 150,000 miles warranty. I am no mechanic, I never even change my own Oil.

The Valve Stem was me googling white smoke when Idling, but no one ever told me for sure,

Wouldn't BMW dealer tell me if this was an issue on my car when they looked at it.

Are you trying to say I ripped someone off?

Not at all!!


Im saying a BMW dealer will toss it on their lot, or onto a non-branded lot the dealer owns, and try and flip it quick. They wont mention ANYTHING to a buyer. Heck, user car managers make it a point to be as ignorant as possible.




No big deal- post a vin, maybe someone googles the vin prior to purchasing.


Or not.


You googled the vin on that X3, right?
