What really gets me is that they are now putting this on pretty much every car in the fleet right? 1,3,5,X,Z and soon we will be seeing turbos in M's too. Is there a BMW left worth buying?
Now I'm left with a malfunctioning car! Really pissed!

I'm not sure what kind of setup 335 uses, but I had a K&N filter in my Lexus, and the oil from it killed the hotwire mass airflow sensor, and the car ran very badly. I dumped that filter in the trash, replaced it with OEM filter, cleaned the MAF, and the car ran great ever after.
