BMW replaced my transmission a few months ago, and it cost THEM $6,500.00, so it's not a SMALL repair!

UPDATE: BMW will not cover the replacement, they offered to pay 1000 of it. FUCK CREVIER BMW. They lost all my current business and my future business. Never again will I take my E60 and E92 to them. Anyone else have any clue to what else I can do, I'm waiting for a call back from my Service Adviser's Manager's Manager now. Next step is to contact the California Bureau of Automtive Repair. Then go in to the dealership and raise some hell in front of their other customers.

My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
Damn, sorry to hear that, good luck with the warranty. Man, am I glad I have the BMW warranty to 100K, if I ever get there I will buy another warranty when this one gets close to expiration. I don't even want to imagine what a new tranny costs

I don't think they offer another warranty that goes above 100k
