Description of the problem	a bolt broke on the valve cover. It's not from cold weather or lack of maintenance, it's clearly a manufacturer default. When advised by valley bmw in modesto i learned this happens in most of these models that year. It's from over torquing the bolt or a faulty bolt or something else but it's clearly not the fault of the consumer. Mine broke on the passenger side and it causes the oil to leak on the exhaust. This is a safety issue and must be addressed immediately. This also happens on the oil pan! Http://msauceda1. Blogspot. Com/2013/07/bmw-330i-2006-broken-bolts-valve-cover. Html it costs over $1000 to fix and after researching further, i found this is happening a lot and many consumers as well as repair services are frustrated and understandably angry. Please address this and make bmw recall these vehicles for repair before someone gets killed! Https://www. Youtube. Com/watch? V=5co92u-wa94.
