Presumably you could fit either standard M3 cams or aftermarket ones but then BMW wouldn't honour the warranty?

I think if this happens to me I'll be cancelling my warranty and going independent.

If I had done this myself with BMW it would have cost £7k, even at BMW's subsidised rates they give to the warranty scheme, it is still costing them £5.5k, so other than the length of time it is taking, I'm quite relieved it is being done under the warranty scheme. They have offered to financially compensate me for the loss of use, but can only give a figure once it has all been done and dusted.
