You need 2500 posts, then you can switch to whatever you want.
but you are allways posting as a guest, so you're never reaching the 2500...

Update on PDC and bootlid button retrofit:

PML now said they needed 3 days to do the retrofit. I am also going to ask them to remedy the following:
1. door squeaks which came back despite the anti-friction tape treatment on door frames
2. change engine oil at 8700 km although no warning by the computer yet
3. address engine drag when car goes up slope and then move to level ground. Seems that the engine or computer still thinking the car is on the slope and drag the gear and refuse to change to gear 2 from gear one.

I think E60 520 price in Singapore is going to drop to $180,000 in the months ahead.

Hi Ed520, do I have to bang table before PML will get me the courtesy car? Do I have to book in advance? My Sales Rep told me PML does not provide courtesy car anymore. 520 is popular, so price more elastic. Also, need to compete with E200 Merc. 525 and 530 only the very rich can afford, so no need to offer bargain price - they will pay whatever price quoted. I am sending in my car next week.

Saw a black 520i (XXX 7070 X) doing PDC retro-fit in PML today. Is it your ride?
