Yea when I was still up north I asked Kristen to bring home from BMW dealer, the tool to do the RTAB and she said they didn't have one because they never have to replace them.
I haven't been easy on my car for the 100K+ miles I put on it... I thought, with all the talk about it on the internet, that all of the bushings and rubber bits would be worn out by now but I'm finding it's quite the opposite...
