Hi!
I have left the right side cupholder open (with a bottle of water in it), because we had a passenger with us i the car today.
When she left the car, she broke the cupholder because its still where open
It's difficult to change the cupholder at the right side ? Cost ??
The picture below shows the cupholder, before it broke.

Man, same think happened to me last week! My friend was getting in the car and did not notice that cup holder was open, so he knocked it with his knee. The bottom part that holds bottles broke off. I called my service adviser next day and they replaced it under warranty.

The passenger side cup holder cost $75.00 in US (my SA told me). I think they are very easy to replace, as it took them 10 minutes to replace both.
Serge.

Merv the Derv;
It's not totally broken, but I can't use it..
I will see what my dealer says, warranty or not - it will be replaced in two days

Thanks guys for the information
This site rocks!
I will call my dealer tommorow, and ask them about warranty, and order a new one.
I can change it my self
Love this car, even if there are a few things which dosen't match BMW's quality,
But after 41.000 km in a year it's the best car we ever have had
My BMW trips the next few days:
500 KM today
700 KM tommorow
500 KM thursday
500 KM sunday
- all those kilometers :'(
