Yes, subframe, thanks for the correction. I had control arms on the brain when I typed the post from a different car. I tossed my notice also since I don't have the E46 anymore. But as for contact info, I would think a search on google etc. would find that pretty quick--these attorneys want to be found.

Presumably the case has settled. That's why you got the notice.

The case is expected to settle around the first of September. You can opt out of the settlement with the notification. There is also a form to fill out and mail if you already had the repair made.
 
$1,100,500 attorney fees and $22,000 in expenses. Yikes!

AC in all three of my BMWs is limp at best. I used to complain but now recognize BMW puts weak AC compressors in their cars. Learn to live with it.

I am a bit surprised because the AC on my '03 X5 was quite capable and the kids were always comfortable when they controlled the rear AC. Thanks for the reply, good to hear some commentary.

HPFP (fuel pump) acting up again by jmaroun

I bought a new 2008 335i (SA [South African build], sedan, manual, with sports package) about a year ago. Within 2-3 months of my purchase, got long crank up times and the dealer replaced the fuel pump. Lately, crank times have been creepping up again. This morning was the longest (about 6-7 seconds).
 
Very dissappointing. Sure they'll fix it for free I'm sure..but what about after the warrenty? I should have leased.

Sounds like the fuel pressure regulator might be the problem. If that leaks down, the poor pump has to re-pressurize the entire fuel system every time you start up.

Passenger Side Mirror Setting by densmith1

Reply
When I unlock my 2007 328i sedan by pushing the button on the remote control, The passenger's side mirror changes the angle from where it was when I parked the car. Does this mean there is a problem with my mirror or is there a problem with the remote or some other issue where the setting is not being saved correctly. I am using the reveserve tilt setting by keeping the mirror swith pushed all the way to the left position. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Should I purchase Extended Maintenace by kenshiro

Hi,
I own a 2006 330i. My factory warranty is about to expire in 2 months and I am deciding if I should buy the extend maintenance program. I dont drive much, the car has about 37,000 miles. I asked around and the lowest quote is $2000 for 6 years/100k. Basically, I am paying $2000 for 2 more years of maintenace.
Is it worth it based on the miles I drive each year? I heard is very costly just to replace the brakes.

There is a known problem with the cylinder head, and it had to be replaced, luckily my car is still under warranty. The car went into the dealer numerous times before they heard the sound. They first thought it was air in the oil pump and had to bleed the line, but of course, that didn't help.
