Anyway just had a call from BMW customer service , they have spoken with the dealership and it turned out there are several cracks on the wheel and they claim it was caused by external damage . Is there anyway to prove them wrong or i should just get a new set of wheels ? They quoted me £741 for an 9j rear style 216 wheel and a 255/35/18 rft tyre .

There is a whole section on this subject on the main forum mate and its been in the press and even on watchdog so its a common fault.

I've never read it fully because its never affected me but have a read through it and arm yourself with some info then go back, keep calm and get them to replace it.
