Just picked up my car yesterday. After a week at BMW service, looks like it's the same thing that happened last time but it's on a different cylinder. It is cylinder misfire and they have to change the injector again. But this time they did a lot or reprogramming in the computer. I guess misfire is partly cause by the computer giving out the wrong message. So after picking the car up this time, my patient is running extremely low. If this happens again, I don't think I will be picking this car up from service, instead, I demand a new car. What do you think? And I am intended to write up a complain to BMW Canada. Hopefully I can get them to address the issue. BMW is great car to drive if they don't break down and disappoint you...

make sure you are documenting everything and be prepared to write the owner of the dealer a polite professional letter summarizing your experiences ....... good luck
