The DCT mechatronics seal is definitely a known issue and having worked at a BMW dealership for almost 5 years I've seen all the issues they're plagued with as well. (the CEL program was just way too good to pass up)

Congrats on your car and good luck with it as well!

Agreed on the CEL program, the deal was indeed too good to pass...Still seems a bit unreal to me actually, until I see it in person.

Your from Cali and I see the DCT is an issue out there as well...I just got done doing a hydraulic side cover/gasket and Oil trans pan gasket on E92 M3, so that was my decision to go with manual as I intend on keeping car after the Lease is up.

Not to mention the few 1M's we sold and out of those few some came leaking right from Germany..... All set with that mess

You're gonna love it. Probably more than I love mine since it'll be LCI.

Nice she is beautiful. Give us an update how you liking it so far after the 1200 mile service and giving her a good rip?? Any regrets or loving every moment?

My VIN just got assigned to me and have a projected completion date of Nov.21st. for MY16 BSM/W SO interior

Hopefully she gets here around Christmas (a little wishful thinking on my part, bu never know)..
