There are numerous problems with this car I have. I owe money on this car that I can't drive. Even worse the cost to fix this car is more than what I owe and it is all because of a defect in their parts that they will not recall for. BMW wants over $20,000.00 to fix timing chain, oil pump and new engine along with other issues. This is insane and outrageous.

X3 28i

I went in for an oil change and the next day the drivetrain light came on. I took it back to the service center on Monday and they are telling me it's the Vanos System and the timing guides are broken. WTH is going on and why is it going to cost $5800 to fix it. Just got of warranty, this is my first BMW and may just be my last.
