The whole assembly is off the car and they get it apart. They've tried to soak it in some sort of PB blaster mixture and then press it out with no luck. The next step is to order the whole assembly which equates to $1500 in parts and $1000 in service. BMW is not sure if this is covered under the extended warranty (third party) because there is no mechanical failure in the attached components, they just can't get it apart. They called the company and explained that it was seized up and listed the new parts and additional service requirement. An adjuster will be out here by Monday. Looks like no autocross for me this weekend. Last one of the season this year. More to follow.

Hope they take care of you on this!
