Sorry to hear they got you good.

Lots of these headaches are gone with deletes but not pushing the issue. Some don’t want to do it because they want the car to remain compliant and others can’t delete because of their state’s laws.
Thanks for the feedback. I overpaid big time and it is my fault. Received a quote for labor from a Bmw dealer mechanic on Craigslist looking for side jobs for $225 labor, and could have bought the orig BMW parts from ECS tuning for $650-ish. But missed the email from the mechanic and needed to get the car fixed ASAP so off to the dealership I went.

Thank you for all the details. I certainly appreciate it. Will have to decide in the next couple of weeks if I am going to keep the car or not. I mean I love everything about it. Part of me says I should stick with it and hope for the best.
