^^^Your pricing above considering its the dealer, isn't bad. Anything to get us that Dynavin N6 review is helpful lol!

I'm sending my Bosch 5.7 in shortly for repair as well. Ask the dealer if yours is the 8.0 or not, I think it is though.

It seems like the audi had this problem but it can be rebuilt now. I am not sure about on on facelift bmw though. Does 4.8is use bosch 8.0?
CHEAP ABS Bosch 8.0 Module Repair for Audi

Ok guys, sure thing it was not the ABS module.
Same symptoms as before.They're trying to dig in a little deeper and will get on it first thing in the morning..will keep you posted.

Well on the bright side you have a new ABS module.

Ya the owner said he'll make it right by me..if he decides he will leave the module in at no cost or put mine back in it doesn't matter to me..i already paid they better find the culprit lol..he was very nice though...he apologized and took me home in his M5 and promised to take care of it first thing in the morning..we'll see what it might be; hopefully nothing really expensive.

That is great that they are promising to make it right.

The ABS module diagnosis sounded a bit off given the symptoms. Hopefully it quick and easy.

Yes it was strange especially the motor dying while backing out and not cranking but starting like nothing's wrong after a few more tries...

What seems strange to me is the oil temp gauge and coolant temp gauge go all the way up when the motor won't turn over but come back to normal the one time it's ready to start.

And by the way, I'm not hearing the click click click sound anymore.its just silent.but when it's ready to start it fires right up.

If it not cranking I would have them look at the EWS system. No clicks and not cranking means the starter solenoid is not receiving a signal from the DME to energize. Could also be a bad ignition switch.

I was also suspect about the module given that the 8.0 hasn't reported the same failure prone rate as the 5.7 module. Keep us posted...

Signs of a failing ignition switch:
