[QUOTE="Macheet, post: 206742, member: 2128"] My 325i has a new engine. YES A COMPLETE NEW UNIT FROM MUNICH Been a while guys ( been temp assigned to somehere really remote...) hence could not share my experience of this 'alladin' lamp alarm and 1L top-up' story. I will make it short...NO ITS NOT NORMAL for a top-up after engine break-ins (unless you drive like maniac connstantly on the red-line). My 05 325i got an engine transplant after I insisted on 1) Open cylinder heads 2) Complete absolute compression test on all cylinders and true enuff once the heads were ripped opened, I saw wet plugs (pistons seals leakage 101) and wet valves of course. The invoice to BMW Malaysia for installation of new engine RM42,000/ + 3 weeks of courtesy car ( a crappy 116i). Lucky I was overseas when all these were goin-ons. Moral of the story. Dont let the SA fool you, while our warranty stiil valid. Cheers [/QUOTE]
