My indie submitted the work to my warranty company on Thursday, so we'll see how they respond early next week. I'm tempted to contact my local dealer and see if they would be willing to do anything like what you had done, though I'm guessing they will just laugh at me...
Hopefully they pick up the tab after all that's the sole purpose of the warranty. I contemplated buying a warranty when I purchased the car but talked myself out of it with the the help of a few folks. The engines are just not supposed to have problems. I'd at least go talk to BMW and let them know what happened and what if anything they're willing to do. Keep in mind that the dealer is a franchise and he's not going to want to eat anything without the help of the mothership. But maybe he's willing to help. Doesn't hurt to ask.
