First Issue with 2006 X5 4.8is

[pm_wizard]

I made the grievous error the other day of telling my neighbour that the BMW was working flawlessly!

As of yesterday morning my Blackberry couldn't sync with the bluetooth, the Nav unit has lost its telephone icon and won't let me resync manually (connection failed). I tried syncing another bluetooth phone, and it got the same error. So, fine (well not really) I call the dealer here in Toronto and they will only make an appointment for the 23rd of May. That probably burns me more than the machine failure itself.

I guess BMW is getting so popular here that even a newly (relatively) constructed dealership can't keep up with the volume.

Is this gettting common, the long wait for service?

yep...absolutely, in metropolitan areas

at bmw of san francisco, the wait is about 1-2 weeks...1 month for a loaner...an enterprise loaner....
