Getting an alignment at the dealership again free... think it'll work?

About two weeks ago, I got a 4-wheel alignment at my dealership and paid $230 for it. I just got a JB+ and did some enthusiastic driving at a track and I threw off my alignment. Do you think I can get them to do it again for free this time? I didn't hit a curb or pothole or anything like that.

Please, no white knights.

Since they charged you 2x the price of what a regular alignment should cost...I don't see why they don't offer lifetime free alignments.

You paid for the first time so how are you getting them to do it for free again?

Not really. Normal BMW dealer charge for a 4 wheel alignment is in the $200~$240 range.

Let us know which dealer is offering the "lifetime free alignments".

My dealer used to charge $170 for alignments. New management kicked in and now the fee is $230... ridiculous and they just lost a customer...
