So who are you, RealDeal?

Two questions, why were the original "codes" cleared by the dealer when the codes never backed the explanation, at least the explanation the OP has given to the community? Second, are you saying the independent dealer's codes are not real, or just not part of the problem?

And engineers understand corner cases are extremely finicky and extremely difficult to find and then reproduce. I'm not concerned about how long the car has been out or how many miles they have been driven. Stuff happens, I'd just like to understand this better. Off to Jalopnik to see what those "experts" supposedly figured out without any background to BMW engineering (assuming.....).

Went to Jalopnik, no wizardry found over there with a an actual cause/effect. Please point me (us?) to the post that figured it all out...
