X3 in the shop - 3series loaner

[jaaX3]

I took my X3 in this morning to get some things checked out. First off, my BMW assist is not working. If I press the button, the screen says "BMW Assist Inactive". My SA called back 4 hours after I dropped of the car, said that the TCU is bad and they will need to replace it. They should have that part in tomorrow and it will be done the same day. And also my Sat Nav is European mode. While the fix the TCU, they are going to recode that and get everything straight again. I'm very happy with Peter Pan BMW in San Mateo.

As for the loaner, I got a 325i. It handles amazingly. The gas mileage is good, and it has nice features inside. I like how the blinker works. It also has a 6-speed auto. But it seems if you aren't in sport mode, it shifts from 1st to 2nd way too soon. The power is adequate, but it would have been nice to get a 330i. But then again, gas prices here in the city are on the rise again, big time.

Anyways, I'll update here when I pick up my X3.
