Re: Bmw Goodwil

This what they said about goodwill When the warranty expires, we don’t usually help with the repair cost unless a BMW Insured Warranty is purchased. But, if a BMW Centre is sure that the problem is down to a manufacturing fault, they may make a case for us to help. Whether we do offer a contribution...

Although it was not a failing part which I...

Re: The time has come..

Re: 05 3.0D Sport and A Couple of Non X's

Also I noticed the drive is now done and look very good and probably easier to keep the cars cleaner
