Sarge is on a distinguished road
I have the same $%^&ing problem with mine. Fluid 'disappears' into nowhere. What's worse: My wife and I dropped the car at the dealer, they fixed "a" leak, and called me to pick it up a week later. (It was in for a laundry list of repairs).

I get a ride to the dealer and drive it home. Next morning, I remember the leak, and test the washers to see if they work. Bone dry. Fill it up with fluid, they work, then do one errand (one mile round trip) and they're empty again.

Dealer says they will have to take entire interior apart to find the leak. Seats, center console, etc - basically gut the car. I'm sure there won't be an squeaks when they put it back together, eh?

The BEST part? The dealer is TWO HOURS from my house, and they don't allow their loaner cars out of the 'city'. So every trip to the dealer is AN EIGHT HOUR EXCURSION.

Meanwhile, my neighbor has a Toyota Highlander, under warranty, and the dealer drives over to pick it up for service (She didn't buy it from that dealer, either). And that Toyota dealer is right down the street from my BMW dealer - i.e. also 2 hours away.

Think I'll buy another BMW? Not under these circumstances...
