Super helpful and information, especially about the valve gasket being covered by warranty. Seems the B58 gasket are easier job, had a N55 and it was more involved and had to get the entire assembly, not just the gasket like on a E36 job. Thank you!
By any chance have you had any of your software updates become stuck on the 3 stage of installation? I have been dealing with that for the last 6 months. All the other updates went through without any issues. My local dealer wants almost $300 to force it through which I think is crazy
@davek5529 I haven’t had any issues with updates. To be honest I haven’t done an update myself. I recently learned that if you hood down the volume button for 1 minute it resets the infotainment system. That might help. If not I would disconnect the negative battery cable and reset the computer then try doing the update again.
Hmm my 2019 40i hit 60,000 miles and still didnt trigger. Did you get a check engine indicator or notification in the system? Curious if you found out about the oil leak as well.
I think the dealership notified me that the 50000 mile service was do. I asked what it included and it was the spark plugs and brake fluid flush. I found out about the oil leak when I changed my spark plugs. Oil on top of the plugs is a strong indicator for valve cover gasket failure.
@@RascoeGarage i got in mine and these bmw dealers rip off customers so mich that makes bmw unreliable and not to keep anymore. They were asking me $6300 along with labor for one complete assembly of headlmap with single housing not laser. Its tough to maintain n keep track of what is going wrong. Cannot believe my rear axle differential seal wore out in 56000 miles.
@dm6368 I had a slew of electrical issues as well that ended up being the sensor in the windshield that controls all the adaptive driving modes. A wire was broke and it required the whole windshield to be replaced
