BMW factory warranty is probably one of the best warranty out there, they covered the replacement of an the entire engine assembly. The customer was not charged a single penny."

It may be possible that this was due to manufacture defects; at least something that would have appeared during the warranty period
Just an SA helping flood the forums for when BMWNA does a little research before they approve the warranty claim... Should have put the VIN there on that one.

Hope the guy had his break-in service done...
