They are trying to screw me by not letting me get my S (the cooper is rejected and accepted) until i either accept liability for damage to dealers car or prove fault!

Don't put up with that nonsense, i'm getting an independant report done!

Even the after sales manager asked me if i knew that when disc brakes cooled they contracted, i said i did now, and i have checked and double checked, there is nothing in the handbrake section of the handbook that tells you to overapply the handbrake to compensate disc cooling!

We have to stand together on this one, why should we both be £1000 out of pocket when there is clearly and issue here!

out of curiosity, what's the build date on your motor!

PS, if dealer/BMW wont budge pay to have the work done and issue a County Court Summons for the cost of repair! you can do them on the web now!

PPS, I have written to Auto Express Magazine, fancy being part of any article they may write about this?
