Sister took in her 2014 X1 which is under CPO warranty for a winshield washer pump that stopped working- Dealership in Indianapolis Dryer Reinbold BMW is saying that not covered under warranty because BMW certified fluid wasnt used - anyone heard of this?
Just feel like they're pulling a fast one- BMW fluid is also blue. How can they prove certified fluid wasnt used.
Please advise.

That is a real thing.
fluid that's silicone based or washer fluid that's "too hot" meaning too much methyl alcohol will actually melt the strainer under the pump and turn to a goo like clear jelly. It will clog and burn out the pump.
after having TONS of warranty pumps returned to the warranty parts inspection center BMW has released clear instructions that pumps will not be covered due to improper fluid being used as BMW fluid will not melt the strainer.
sucks but it's true
