Going in for a little warranty work.....
 
Sirs,

Non mechanic, recent(Jan 2016) owner of a CPO X5 35i (2013) . Still have
warranty coverage for about 6 months. Thought I'd take a look at the engine
bay and look for leaks, etc.. Was just wondering (see below) if these photos
indicate a problem, just routine, or something that warrants attention now. :dunno:

Just dont want a $2500 fix it bill a day after warranty expires.

Thank you.

Top picture is blowby on the charge pipe. Likely just needs a new o ring inside the charge pipe.
Can't tell the bottom picture what's going on

Thank you Jyohay..... will bring the need for the replacement o-ring
to the service managers attention tomorrow. The lousy 2nd photo was a close-up of the base of these two refill cannisters. http://[URL=http://s1295.photobucket.com/user/cdlaine/media/IMG_0218_zpsychkrc4q.jpg.html]http://i1295.photobucket.com/albums/...psychkrc4q.jpg[/URL]

hmmmm... just for follow -up....:rolleyes:

"Customer states there is oil residue /discharge around the intake tube/
coupler areas.
Caused by: Oil residue. Normal for oil residue to around the throttle body on
vehicle with turbos due to higher intake pressure. No problem found. "

me: will watch closely. :dunno:

That's the oring
Just change it yourself.
Clean the throttle body and monitor it yourself.
Honestly if your not getting any codes then there isn't a boost leak so it's not that big a deal.
But one day boost may spike and give you a reduced power error.

Thanks Jyohay. Will do.
