Had you had your M serviced just before it happened? I had this error just after having mine services - actually in the parking lot of the dealer. Then a similar thing just after having my Z4...

Any change might be good. There have been some serious gaffs e.g. the HPFP recall not being announced in Canada. 20 years ago there was a dissymmetry of information. Thanks to internet fora such as...

Thanks JCL,
I had not heard that the new President of BMW Canada was coming from BMW Italy. Having worked there, perhaps he will be more flexible. I will postpone my decision until he has had a...

Is BMW North America as inflexible?
BMW Canada has rejected my order for an X5M.
The message is zero flexibility. The choices are those on our web site. "We know better than you."

I am sure that you will love the car. I had running boards on my E70 and I did not find them to be very useful. I am over 6' so there is no issue getting in or out of an X. What I did find was that...

Parking Brake - good/bad
I like a hand operated brake, except on a 2 1/2 ton truck - the brake should either be foot operated or electronic. I had the hand brake on my E53, I tried to use it once - it took a long distance to...
