Too late and mine was used anyways so it wouldn't matter. Just have to keep the fingers crossed at this point. |
Even if you bought it used, you can still prove it is a legitimate part if the previous owner is willing to share a copy of the receipt. I would hope BMW would be willing to cover an authentic part even if you installed it yourself. It would just be easier if they can't shift the blame to anyone else. By now I hope they have either resolved this or accepted it as a known issue. People have been able to fix it as well so it's not like it's a crisis if it does happen.
