That's awesome.
Extended warranty is always a nice to have in scenarios like that. The tech got paid ! BMW Labor guide states 35.7 MFG Warranty - 48.5 Standard Auto Trans Both Banks A 35.7 48.5 Includes: R&I Cylinder Head, Transfer All Necessary Components, Grind All Valves & Make All Necessary Adjustments. |
