I have to have the emmissions recall done on my 545...so I guess this means a software upgrade...no big deal went through a couple of these on my 525 (ending with 13.2 or was it .3 ??)

The car is performing perfectly...no complaints...but while it's at the dealer is there anything else I should have them look at?

Check your headlight clips. I'm getting ready to have my third set installed in a couple of weeks. I'll assume you've seen the earlier discussion on these. Found the factory set broken, had replaced, now they are broken again. Not a big deal, but if you're at the dealer, check them out.

Get them to fix the cup holders. They have an instuction video (what they call round table) on this.
