Hi everyone.
Surrey, BC here.
Why don't Canadian E60s have footwell lights and rear door lights? Or was I the only one to get ripped off on these?

Hey Cuto, sorry man, I just replied to you on another thread.
v33 is the newest software available for our cars. Do a search and you'll find tons of great info about it.

They do a thoroughly good job - expect to pay a pretty penny for it, though. I would recommend them if you want to be sure the stuff is done right. Aren't they an authorized Dinan dealer?

In addition, if you care about your paint, tell them in advance not to wash the car for you. Last time I was there (long time ago, not sure if they do this anymore) they told me they don't allow customers to drive dirty cars....but you should see the shop rag they use to wipe down your car with

Fuel Consumption:

Rodger here from Toronto. I have a 2004 530 since about Nov/08. Fuel consumption seems pretty high. I do mixed city/highway driving and get around 12.5l per 100 kms. With only city driving I'd be getting 15l per 100 km. And I DRIVE VERY PASSIVELY.

How does veryone else compare and is there something I could do ?

How many Kms ?

Maybe needs to clean MAF, reset transmission with 25secs trick, change spark plugs, Air filter.
Are you using High octane fuel (grade 91 or 94)?
