Secondly, for large jobs (especially i cars and ActiveHybrid's) must get overall approval from BMWNA (or BMWCA in your case). This involves a complicate cliams procedure, and usually an in-person inspection by a regional TSE (technical service expert). Most dealerships have only two or three "i Certified" technicians, so if he/she is already on a large job, your car isn't getting worked on anytime soon. Again, I understand the frustration, but that's how the system works.

Can agree, mine has been taken home overnight. I didn't appreciate the mileage, but the dealership is responsible if anything goes wrong, so whatever.
