They could even, when up to speed, put the car in neutral and turn off the engine to rule out the engine noise too.
Maybe they know exactly what the problem is. The faulty egr-valve, that causing fires were known by BMW already in 2016 but it took a couple of years until they acknowledged that it was faulty.

That would explain this total ingnorance from them. Typical BMW if you ask me..
