Exactly. I'm guessing the dealer went rogue in this case because I don't believe BMW NA would've recommended or even remotely supported their decision to peform the preventative replacement (for the reasons we've been discussing for years). So, the question is whether this admission of defect by the BMW dealer carries over to BMW as a whole...

Haha so we had two terribly selected plaintiffs. Made it really easy for BMW.

Conspiracy theory: BMW set it up themselves to drag it out over these past several years and then easily have it dismissed... All the while covering the possibility of a better organized lawsuit by taking up the space with this POS.

........
all this time, with all the M3 owners to choose from, the law firm did not find other potential class reps? there are so many who never supercharge or track their garage queen M3
wow

Yeah not a good look in court to have a modified Rev limiter. Lol. Why didn’t the lawyer just google search this forum for squeaky clean plaintiffs.
