Update for Brand New Motor.

Just picked up Car yesterday, it runs like dream!!!!

Just following Break-in procedure until 6,000 KM.

I had to pay $2,026 out of my pocket as warranty only approved $17k.

Quite happy as I got new Vent Pipe, Oil Feed line and Coolant Hose along with Brand New Spark Plug

Now my next step is to replace Front & Rear Diff. Fluid and Transfer Case Fluid.

Asked BMW parts counter about price of Diff. fluid and I was shocked the price is outrageous. The car takes 1L in each Diff. and BMW 75W-90 is $68/Litre. And Transfer Case Fluid (DTF1) is same price as well - crazy pricing....

Please see attached pics of Invoice....
