Swaf on the workshop floor.

I took my K16 in for it's first service yesterday. I was looking through the window into the workshop and could see a fair amount of swaf on the floor under the ramp. Talking to the service manager, it seems there's a problem with GS swing arms filling up water so they do a free fix, which involves drilling a hole in the bottom to allow any water to drain.

Phmode:
Is this post a fortnight late?

You couldn't make it up...well, you could on April 1st.

Let's make a great off-roader and not make the lowest bits water-tight.

Good job you took it in, cos, as usual, BWM ain't gonna tell you about it.

Still, that's the fabulous customer care we all thought we were paying for!

Swindon Andy:
Is it just GSs that suffer this, or might the Ks?
