Oh and out of curiosity, what dampening settings (clicks) do you have it set on?
LOL Not really, Michael helped a lot getting the stockers out of the car (creativity is better than muscle sometimes). We set mine to the mid setting then I took all fours corners to 2 clicks stiffer, I may play around with the settings once it settles and I am happy with the ride height.

Seriously right? The geniuses at PACIFIC BMW of GLENDALE found a valve cover gasket leak, actually I found the leak, and brought it to their attention maybe 2 weeks AFTER they had my car for 2 months figuring out how to replace my intermediate lifters due to the "ticking" problem and increased emissions errors. Well, my service light came on for brake fluid flush so I took it to SOUTHBAY BMW based on a recommendation. Guess what they found? A valve cover gasket leak!!! I also started hearing a clanking noise which SOUTHBAY diagnosed as a differential problem that will be covered under my CPO, which is why I need to go back when the differential comes in from Germany.

But seriously, F*ck those guys over at PACIFIC BMW!!! I've been there at least 4 times since December (I had to bring the car back for them to put missing bolts and fix leaks caused by their original "repairs"), and oddly enough, not once did I get an email survey regarding my service there. Are they trying to avoid my negative feedback??! They sure as hell did not earn 10 stars for service... /rant

On a brighter note, I forsee a lot of beer drinking on Saturday. Get ready John.
