Good to see more people from Chicagoland here.

How much Perillo charges these days for an oil change in V8?

ok after one week of driving this "techno" I think this what i want to ask dealer

battery looks like weak, after night the charge is about 30%
i charged it overnight to 100% and it is OK but i think i should ask for replacement
My car is 3 years old , when you replaced your battery on 550i ?

there is a small acceleration lag when trying to do kick down from a dead stop
basically all 550i i tried have this delay , i will ask for DME/EGS software update
any more ideas ?

windshield wipers need to be replaced
I know i can get online cheap but this should be covered under warranty right ?

i need to update my CIC 2009 NAV map to 2013
working on it ...
