There is a way around this. A friend of mine had a CPO 7 series, and his I-drive failed. He made the argument that since it controls climate control functions (vent settings, ventilated/heated seats etc.), that it was also a part of the climate control system. He bitched to the service manager and BMW NA and they covered it for the $50.00 deductable. Try to go this route and see if it works.

My Ride: 2006 525XI, Jet black on Dakota beige. Premium and winter packages. I consider myself a purist and intend to keep my car absolutely stock and shiny.
2008 328I Convertible, Sapphire black on beige interior. Premium package, NAV, iPod adapter.
Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.

yea i think they just told me that to see if they could get me to pay for it. but SA make money weither it's warranty work or not, so you would think they would try to get warranty to cover it that way they know their going to get paid where as the owner may not want to pay/
