Or did they just clear the fault and call that "reprogramming'??

If it comes back on, look for a intake air leak....
Don't know. I picked up the X late Friday night after the service deptarment was closed and the paperwork wasn't done. I called Monday to ask what triggered the CEL and the above is what they told me. They mailed me the paperwork, I'll let you know what it says when I get it.

Now it's a hole in the intake boot. Which for some reason needed a BMW engineers approval for repair. The engineer was there today, part will be in tomorrow and I can get her tomorrow night.

So much for having the part in the morning. It's is on national backorder....

I am not happy. Won't know the deal with the part until tomorrow and I can't drive it the way it is. I'm going to blow up this X3, trying to jump on it the way I jump on the X6.

Stay tuned.

Lol @ the X3 section.
Sorry @ the X6 part.

When you get her back, she'll be better/faster/stronger.
