I hope you have your car soon. They should be able to track your part.

I give you credit, I'd be freaking waiting three months. It's two weeks today. I've been very patient so far.

I wasn't happy and waited another 5 weeks for a heated fuel filter. I received 600.00 compensation from BMW, but decided I had enough
of BMW's excuses for their parts shortages and traded my X5 35d for
a 2010 Lexus GX 460 premium.

I hope you get your part soon.

I need to change my screen name to cmyX3trytogo

They told me today it will be another week. I'm going there tomorrow to talk to them. My SA is great but there must be something they can do to expedite

Years ago when I needed a new rear drive for my BMW K75S motorcycle, the parts guy got it rather quickly. He said he put a priority code of "VOR," "Vehicle Off Road," on it and BMW air freighted it from Germany.

I have no idea if BMW still uses these priority codes, but it wouldn't hurt to ask the SA about it.

Or cmyX6(not)go

Hopefully your dealer allows visitation rights while your X6 is in the shop, to reduce your withdrawal symptoms -- like uncontrollably stomping your right foot down on anything that even resembles an accelerator pedal. For example, your SAs foot while wearing high heels.

What am I going to do, Funf? I can't shoot the messenger. It's not his fault.

I'm trying really hard not to get pissy. It's hard when I have to stop and wait in line to pay the $8.00 toll everyday. My EZ Pass is mounted on my license plate. No bluetooth, so no talking on the phone while driving. I never did before I had bluetooth so no biggie. I really miss the comfort access. I keep trying to get in and then realize I actually have to dig the key out. Not fun with all the rain lately.

I sure sound like a little spoiled b*tch.

No you don't, you want what you paid for. They should pay your toll charges also. I would ask for a better loaner. It doesn't hurt to ask.

Good luck,

Craig
