Since then mileage has improved a bit (14.1 MPG, 60/40 urban/highway.)
Back-up camera & brake dust still suck.
On the quality side. all was fine for 10 days or so. Then.....
Saturday "EDC Malfunction" appeared on the iDrive (Electronic Damping Control)
Joined yesterday by "Level Control System Malfunction."
And today by "Dynamic Damping Control Malfunction" and the vehicle now rides like a brick (or a 'real' truck!).
Called BMW service again & got service moved from next Thursday to this Friday.
I hope I haven't landed with one of those 'bad builds' 'cause I really like driving this thing!

Took car to the dealership today. SA was sympathetic, "This should not happen with a two week old car!" (I agreed!)
Dealership gave me a loaner (528i, 3,600 mi. clean)
SA called this PM. Part (ECD sensor) on order should have by Tuesday of next week.
I am pleased so far with the attitude & service. Hope the sensor swap fixes the issue. Miss the X-5 already.
