fred's new car, part 1

Well, newer, anyway ;-)

We bought a car from Corporate Motors in Hayward a couple of weeks ago, a 2002 bmw. Really nice, except it has one problem, a persistent unpleasant odor in the heating system. Not the usual condensation/mildew thing, more like a big old air freshener gone to hell and all. The Corporate Motors folks said they would stand by the car and remedy the problem, so we're going down that path with them. They have a chance to be customer service heroes on this, I'm hoping it turns out well.
