I wonder if they have one of those automatic carwashes at the dealership that caused the damage?
Actually - when you mention it: A colleague of mine with an X5 told me to be careful and not to run my car through an automatic car carwash because of the high gloss shadowline B-pillars. A buddy of his had done that on his X5, and the B pillar looked exactly like on the pictures here - covered with swirls marks.
