I don't understand how that company is still in business. After my $8,500 transmission showed up saran wrapped to a wooden palate with all the weight on the trans pan I'd had enough. That and when they shipped me my turbos after 5 months of waiting they didn't pack them well at all and the inlet on the one was completely crushed.

And don't even get me started on getting core charges back. lol.

But car is back together. Just gotta drive it and hope it doesn't go into limp mode again. If it does it'll probably need a throttle actuator which is ~$900, and they usually go in pairs. From what i've read they usually make it about 5yrs/50k miles on these cars and BMW hasn't made any revisions to the part.
