Mini-Car, Maxi Bills..................... But Serious Fun! I'm definitely experiencing fahrvergnügen.

And it’s not just the cost, as I understand it, they’re a bitch to work on.

German cars are usually pretty good but they have the reputation of overengineering the crap out of ‘em.

For example, my wife’s needed a battery last year, I found out you can’t just go to autozone and plop one in, the battery has to be “registered” with BMW or bad things happen in the form of trouble codes.

And to register it, whoever does the work has to have BMWs proprietary software and they don’t just hand that out to anybody.

So with parts and labor I got out of it for $300 and feel fortunate it wasn’t more. 😏
