Test drive with dealership and they felt the issue. Doing the motor mounts on Friday. They "think" that is the issue

Yo, I have seen several of your posts and they have been consistently accurate and helpful.

What's the deal?

Do I need to rent an apartment next to your shop and live off of your BMW knowledge and insights? If you can put it in a can I'll take a case of it. LoL

You da man!

Nuff respect,

No shop for me anymore.Tired of paying tremendous amounts of $$$ for rent and all kind of other fees and passing all that financial weight to the customers.Being mobile now with mostly electric/electronic repairs and small mechanical stuff makes them so much happier
Working with BMWs for 20 years and being immersed in the BMW technology for the last 7-8 years as an independent person helps me to understand how the system works.Passing good info and helping fellow car guys-priceless

Glad to hear it's fixed.Could have been just vacuum hose popped out,but as long as the warranty took care of it's good.
