Any 335 owners had a vacuum leak?

Hey there folks has anyone had vacuum leaks to their 335. I had a vacuum leak recently and they fixed it supposebly however i got a check engine light come on only 4 miles later after picking it up. I called the SA and he told me its normal it takes a little time for it to go away. Slowly the car has been getting better though. Does this sound normal. I havent had a check engine light on since last night.

yea i ment to do that but i was in a rush when i left that post. anyway randomaly my engine keeped stalling out would just randomaly shut off some times at a stop light some times while i was driving. didn't throw any code or anything took it to the dealer. 3 days later told me that it was not happening to them. took the car and left same thing happened about 4 more times befor they told me they will do a "smoke test". basicaly what they do is run some sort of bmw smoke throught the vacum lines to locate the leak. found 2 manifold vacum lines defective and replaced them.\


ps sry about the spelling 2 lazy to fix it
