This is the lame and frustrating PUMA system at work again. I have written on this issue based on my personal and frustrating experience - here is the summary: BMW NA does not let the dealer fix it "right" the first time and instead only authorizes a series of the cheapest fixes first with the hope one of their prayers will work and save warranty cost. This leads to very dissatisfied and frustrated owners of premium cars. STUPID long-term management philosophy.
