Damn, I live to far... :(

lets set it up. The one issue i see is that because of "privacy" and of course internet security issues, i wouldnt want to have it at either of our homes. and Detailing in a parking lot isnt exactly easy. Maybe if we can get a couple members that we know and trust..?

if not, me and you can do it at my house, no problem at all.

I understand what you mean. It isn't always great to have strangers go to your house even if you have a common interest in cars. If we are just introducing detailing, I'm sure a parking lot meet would be fine with some shade and a tent setup.

not sure how the owners of the parking lot would feel about this.

either way, we can figure something out, i'm gonna PM you my cell number. we can discuss this further..

Things could be worse, my friend.

After last week's jump, I ran ok for a few days 'til this morning when it wouldn't crank.
Got it to the dealer after work only to find they're out of loaners.
Luckily, they still provide a rental car - check out my new ride :cool:
I got eye-boned by every Shaneequa I drove by on the way home.

HAHAH i'm literally LOLing


Funny story, BMW took my car in and said that the reason my car wasnt always starting is because of a non-oem battery. bullshit first of all. they wouldnt agree to do any other work without putting an OEM battery in first. i said fine, and sucked it up.

after they put it in, they said "oh hey, the car is fixed, you can come pick it up" my dad goes there today, waiting for the tech to pull it around, and guess what? The tech couldnt get the car started--dead as a door nail! hahaha, maybe now they realize theres an issue?

yeah with all the horror stories floating around on here, I feel lucky to have a SA who doesn't try to bullshit me. true, the dealer is more expensive than an indie, but mine knows me, my car, how I take care of it and makes sure their techs do too. to me, that and the convenience are peace of mind.

keep us up to date with what they find on yours.

hopefully mine is just the battery and I'll be out of the ghettocruiser and back in my X tomorrow :thumbup:

Good luck with that!

I have a great relationship with my SA too, he knows how I treat my X, so do the techs also. I have never been bullshitted by them, and he always give me what I deserve... But for some reason they BSd me on this one. I do have to give him credit though, after BMWNA rejected my rust claim, he has been working hard to get it fixed under warranty. He had another representative come out to look at my car today. keep your fingers crossed!

The text I got while I was in france was "your car misses you, it said so while peeling out of the driveway this morning."

Perfect timing for the E93. Nice one :thumbup: Good luck dealing with BMWNA, and if this tech doesn't work out, try finding someone higher up at BMW...
