For this reason I always avoid to send the car to the dealer. I know that sometimes it is almost impossible ...

Sounds like you've had your share of problems with BMW. A buy back in your last car, and now this? Either you are a PITA customer or very unlucky

Now, should I let go or am I being too soft? What would you do
It sounds like you are being treated more than fairly. They've been responsive to your needs without you needing to escalate the matter. My dealer has also has done the right thing by taking care of some damage that happened while my baby was in their care, but I didn't get a $700 gift.

I'll share a little secret / Give a little advise, TIP YOUR SA & BE NICE, don't be a prick or think you are better because you are sitting on the other end of his table... it will do wonders!

Just my 2 Cents...

Maybe we should do a survey on that? I never considered tipping my SA. Am I committing a major faux pas? May I ask how much you tip?
