Does look to me more an elec problem bt will leave to the expert. I bought mine new and had 2 elec faults inthe 1st year.
And 1 thing that I am vvvvv disapointed w BMW is the adaptive step gearbox that tune itself to become jerky after a while.

thanks for that info, as i was a bit shocked the last time i had a service
at bmw with the SB already on (they knew it was on from a reading on their computer)
when the car came back it was very sluggish, it felt like it didn't have the SB on, until
i put the K+N in and floored it a few times, now it is very fast in gearchanges.
so the car adapts to your driving style??

...Engine oil code showed up again!!!

i was driving down hill to a slop with a very slow speed..suddenly the engine oil code pop up and said " engine pressure low" and saying i should stop carefully and the low pressure may demage the engine...! but then...after a while, it disappear and when i got home after a long drive, the code showed up again after i switch off my key..the code showed up and after i re-start my engine, the code still there, but all in a sudden, it disappear again.... is it normal? or something wrong...damn...i only got the car one month only...already have the "chok chok ha" problem got to fix and now..have to fix the engine oil code again...what kind of car i have....all C hing...please help!!!!

Thanks, i am pretty happy as a BMW owner..but if all troubles continous..i think i need to sell it back to the god damn car sales!

I love BMW...but on the same time, i am feeling same level of disappointment and angryness on the same time!!!!

sounds like you have alot of bad luck with this car.
the sale should have 3 month for you to fix free.
you should drive it to AK and let him have a check and see if you should sell the car back to them and not worth fixing.

Not sure which to get, might go with the OEM route or find a second hand OEM.

The redline shows how much differences between the front and rear (I know the front are meant to be abit lower)
