E63 service engine light

Brought car in for service, was told my intake gasket was leaking like a broken water dam. Aslo was told there is a TSB for the problem. My engine light has been on since before the Atco rental. Wonder if this cost me a tenth or two. Anyway when it gets fixed, I will remove the charcoal filters and install the VRP high flow air filters that are sitting in my garage. Hopefully this gets me into the 11's.

PS..oil change and wipers $319.00
