I find it impossible for oil and coolant, from the thermostat plug in the waterpump, to traverse it's way up the corrugated casing on the harness all the way to the DME. Even if it was inside the wire casing itself, even more unlikely, you'd likely have had severe electrical problems before it reached the DME. |

Take it to a real BMW Mechanic

This shop is well-known around the Oklahoma metro area for being the go-to BMW specialists and have BMW certified mechanics with years of experience working there. When I first brought them my car after replacing the fuel pressure sensor and they thought the car just needed to have whatever coding needs to be done after replacing something like that, I asked them what it'll run me. They told me they weren't going to charge me anything, that I could just bring them a box of donuts someday for it if I had the time, and we didn't think there were any other problems at the time that I'd need to bring it back for.
I understand your point, and I see where you're coming from, but these guys have a good reputation. I have some close friends who've known the owner for years and know that he's trustworthy and knows what he's doing. It's an extremely uncommon and unusual issue, but these guys do great with taking care of a lot of BMW owners in the area, so I trust them. They've been good to the people I know and not screwed any of them over.
