ooh hey, turbos! =P

I had my car in for some service and I kept complaining about random engine lights for no apparent reason coming on. They took it out for a few test drives and got the car to show them the failure lights. So they sifted through the ECU's logs and found a bunch of errors coming from all over the engine. Long story short, they basically rebuilt the entire engine on BMW's dime. (46,000 miles on the clock, yay warranty!). So I got the car back, took it out for a little test drive and holly hell do I have power!

I didn't realize how much power I was missing out on (bought the car with 41k on the clock). So needless to say, it's nice to have both my turbos breathing freely and the engine running smooth.

Also that new oil cooler is a big help too.

Nice! Buying used is great especially when there is a little bit left of original warranty on it!

x2 on warranty...335 has too much to go wrong to not have warranty IMO
