I've never seen anything like it.

A dealer in Minnesota claimed it was the afm that caused it, said the valves must have worked when they weren't supposed to and allowed fuel to get into those cylinders and it exploded.


Its direct injected
Tell me about it, having to have my BMW walnut blasted every 25-30k is annoying.
