So long E70, and good riddance!

[Praetorian]

I'll be getting rid of the E70 on wednesday. There were problems with the car right from when I picked it up and despite numerous (although half assed) attempts to fix it, my list of problems grew.

Every time I'd get it back from service, the problems would exist, and a new problem would usually arise!

Finally I got fed up with BMW. I'm going back to Porsche. I need a manufacturer and dealer that actually cares and has the skills to resolve any problems.

Good luck, everyone, with your E70's. I wish you all better luck than I had.

The list of problems I had is below:



IDrive freezes during routine actions
-setting address
-scrolling music

Ipod interface really slow
-2-3 minutes to load a playlist

Backup Camera problems
-takes too long to activate when starting car (1+minutes)
-useless in low light

PDC doesn't work
-beeps constantly
-been in for this issue, not resolved

Backup Camera/PDC split screen not available

Handsfree phone interface not loud enough

Trunk unlock by remote sets off alarm, doesn't open trunk

Memory seat doesn't adjust steering wheel back to position
