Maybe this is a good approach. I prepared myself with this story... Didn't have to use it as you know (since the dealer was very helpfull and immediately scheduled me in for a cylinder head replacement). Tell them you are well informed about this subject. Tell them the only way to get it permanently and correcly fixed is to have them submit a Puma case to get authorization to swap the head. I was told by a BMW tech (who PMed me) that Puma always says yes. Hope this helps.
