I kinda miss a few opinions on the topic of “screw taste” here. 🥲

      There is absolutely nothing anti-tamper about this screw either. Seriously. It’s just an annoying inconvenience and will be replaced with a standard screw with the same thread by the first mechanics to see it.

      I suspect that’s the real reason BMW is pulling this. They want to pull a warrantee void if seal is broken end run around magnussum-moss and will need to be slapped around again.

        Yup. Has to be some bullshit to charge more for service, and prevent self maintenance.
