Thumbs up

Having a message saying that D light is not working, TV signal for TNT OR DVBT is week or even inexistent in the middle of Paris, and voice command in German.
I went to a BMW dealer, they have been very nice, the man checked the error report in the car, there is no problem, but the message comes every day and then disappear, so he said that they should check the car computer and upgrade, gave me an appointment in 2 weeks from now and didn?t give me any further details.
My question, should I pay money for that, my car is still under warranty, as it is 02/2006 model that I bought from Germany with European warranty.

No $$$ for the dealer if your car is under warranty!

If you bought the car in Germany the voice control is in German

Did you buy it with EuroPlus warranty?
I guess you will have to pay for a langue change, I don't think the Europlus includes that..
