did you ever find out the culprit of your CEL?

Great color, BTW! MCB really accentuates the lines of the M5, but i too, am a little biased

I told them not to wash the car before I left with it, didnt want them putting it through the machine wash, I will wash it by hand either later or tomorrow. Then it will be perfect for pictures haha.

Now for the bad news. After coming home in the car last night, I did a sorta hard pull on a secluded street, no houses or anything around. Settings were in sport mode and I was using the paddle shifters. I get the drivetrain malfunction error that I had been reading up on. Car went into limp mode, I was kinda frustrated but at the same time knew it was a common issue (surprised it didnt happen while on the test drive) . Turned the car off for a few minutes then turned it back on, and car is running normal again...yay. Called carmax today, told them what happen and I have an appointment on Monday for then to diagnose it. Will be a free fix since its under the 90day warranty they offer.
I would go BANANAS if I got a DTM on the way home from a purchase. That had to just irk you. Thank goodness you got the Carmax Warranty. I would call BMW with your VIN # and ask if the turbo line recall and any other possible recall has been completed. Just had my uncles 2013 lines replaced under recall a month ago.
