an FYI for high mileage E70's....

I'm not going to make any excuses for BMW, but I am having problems understadning how your X is showning signs of "Serious Problemss" (plural)

You AC compressor grenaded (and you were ill advised to use a BMW dealer unless you had a warranty).... poor repairs followed, and now the dumba$$ who butchered the AC job likely screwed up something in the wiring harness. ABS modulator connector, wheel speed sensor, etc. (FYI, low pads will NOT result in low pedal....)


Mark my words, they will lie to you about the root cause of this issue so they can bill you for more work.

(I'm a believer in extended warranties, unless you are modding the drivetrain....they've always paid out for me.)

PS You may want to have a discussion with the service Manager about WHO will be allowed to work on the car. If they have a certified master technician, I'd write ON THE WORK ORDER, that "Approval on granted for Mr. Master Tech to perform all work on this vehicle". In writing, not verbal. They just shine you on with whatever you need to hear, then give it back to the same moron and tell him to 'fix it and you are doing it for free'... how motivated will he be this time?
