Q: Bootcamping my Mac, error in Disk Utility but not in recovery mode Disk Utility

So I was trying to bootcamp my Mac. During the formation process, BootCamp Assistent tells me that there is an error with my drive and it needs to be resolved with Disk Utility.

So I run the First Aid in Disk Utility and it tells me I have to run and repair my drive with Disk Utility from within the Recovery partition.

I reboot my Mac in recovery mode and run First Aid from there. This time it tells me there were no errors. So I reboot again to normal mode and try again to start the BootCamp process.

Same error as before, made the whole procedure again, Disk Utility says to repair in recovery mode, Recovery mode Disk Utility says everything is fine, booting back to normal Disk Utility without running BootCamp setup before says again to repair in Recovery Mode...

What should I do?

Thanks for your responses!

MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012), OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)

    Boot into Internet Recovery (not Local Recovery), click on Utilities -> Terminal and run

     

    diskutil repairDisk disk0

     

    Use Command+C (Copy) to copy the output, exit Terminal, start Safari, and Command+V (Paste) the output in this discussion.

     

    Assuming that you have a 2012 MBP, do you have a SSD or a regular technical hard disk?
