OK. Just picked mine up and they replaced the same parts as dmfelger and speciald14 (charge air hose/seals). Per Ard's comments on the fact that oil should not be in the charge air hose to begin with, I grilled the SA as to why oil was there in the first place.....The SA speculates that this seal was most likely defective or improperly placed, and was causing oil to leak into the charge air hose. He assures me () that the leaked oil will not affect the turbo spools or the exhaust system since it is all "burned off".....We'll see. I also asked him if the seal will start leaking again after another 17k miles, and he said that he believes that it shouldn't since it is now "properly in place"..... Still have 2.5yrs on warranty, so I figure if there will be a problem, it should declare itself before then.....Will probably get extended warranty as well since I plan to keep the d for a loooong time.....

They also reprogrammed the computer system (erased all my presets too), changed the dreaded charge air temp sensor, flushed the brake fluid, and changed the cabin air filter.
