UPON ARRIVING AT WORK I NOTICED A SLIGHT OIL DRIP ONTO THE REAR TIRE AND BRAKES. WHEN I RETURNED HOME THE REAR TIRE HAD OIL AROUND THE PERIMITER AND THE OIL WAS LEAKING ONTO THE REAR BRAKES SATURATING THE PADS. THE LEAKING WAS BAD ENOUGH THAT I HAD TO PUT A RAG UNDER THE TIRE TO KEEP IT OFF THE FLOOR. I TOOK IT TO AN AUTHORIZED BMW DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE CROWN BEARING, SEAL, BEARING ROLL, & O-RING. THIS REQUIRED 2.5 HRS OF SHOP LABOR.
