My Ride: 525D
Model Year: 2012
Hi,
Got my new 535D.
And on the second day the Idrive screen frized... :'( That never happened with my 530D (2003). Thanks to this forum, i found out how to reset it (eject dvd, eject cd + audio mute), and could use it for the all weekend. But i would prefer to have a Linux IDrive if that was an option.
As is only 200 km , it's still early to make any comments. But the confort seats are amazing. The main reason i changed my car was the unconfort of the 530D (it was a march 2003 ex-show car) i bought last year with std seats. I usually drive for 50.000 kms each year, and confort is a must. I was thinking of replacing the RFT's for Goodyear Eagle F1, like those i have on my 525 (e39). But i'm not shure anymore as this is totaly different in terms of ride confort. I was told that those first cars were using a diferents suspension specs.
My 525 was 320.000 kms when i sold it. I hope i can do the same with the 535d without major problems also.
