first thousand miles....50i...minor problems....

[sheikh36]

So 2 weeks and a thousand miles and my car is starting to demonstrate some of the little problems BMW early builds are famous for...

So far

1. Auto tailgate close button has malfunctioned a few times i.e. it will refuse to go down...just closed it manually and locked unlocked and it started functioning again..

2. Found ALL my settings gone twice

3. The front door panel is a bit off on the passenger side door...I would not have noticed it but i heard a vibration when I accelerated from start and when I looked I saw the space between the corner speaker and the side panel was different from the drivers door...will have to take it in for them to reassemble it

4.Rear and top view cameras went out once i.e. I was backing up and everything disappeared....did the whole windows switch off switch on thing and it resolved....

Apart from the door panel which is a build quality issue the rest I think is all electronics/programming.... may prompt me to take it in and have it reprogrammed if it keeps happening ....

All in all not tooo bad..again my last one was an early build and flawless so its a bit disappointing but what can one do I guess....

Otherwise love the car and the engine.... having taken a few exits at some very decent speeds I can say they have tweaked the suspension a decent amount as the handling is noticeably better then my 2007 3.0.....The base sound system is a huge improvement from the base on the 3.0....the comfort seats rock...don't know HOW I lived without them ....new updated i drive is also a huge improvement....as are the improved looks especially with the 336 wheels...the little electronics bugs are bothering me as is the
mis-assembled door panel....
