My Ride: 2004 BMW 525i, 6 Speed Manual, Premium/Sport Pkg, Xenon Adaptive Light Control
Thanks all! Got it tinted over the weekend, had the starting issue and got stuck on the road for a bit but in the past 2 weeks. After the posts I read here on the issue, I didn't panic, just took it in to get it checked and fixed. The first service resulted in rough idling and shorter cranking time and then check engine light eventually leading to shutdowns and low power. After the 2nd service, she's purring like a kitten again. No long cranks or rough idle anymore. Hopefully that will be the last of it.
Now I need to kill the tires and replace them with something better. They ride well enough and much better when warmed up but the potholes on the road is killing the ride. I'll probably go back with runflats as I liked the Michelin Pilot Sport 2 AS I had on the last 525 or if there is a new and softer one out. Love this site and all the info here!
