My Ride: 2006 530 XD TOURING Luxe, 231HP
1- Finish of cabin / dashboard is disappointing (cannot compare with Merc or Audi), and leather seat tend to wrinkle way too easily, and the cup holders that looks like home made 'bricolage'...Shame for a car of that price.
2- Some plastic cracking noise from back, as well as noise from door seal...and no solution from Stealer
3- tire pressure warning that cannot tell which wheel is the culprit...
4- standard radio / Cd isn't that great...(got too used to bose audio from Audi in previous life..)
But once driving it, all the above is already forgotten...

- If I need to make a call whilst having NAV or CD player on I-drive, I've got the steering wheel button programmed to access the phone list, no problem. But once the call is finished, I wish I could just press the same button again to return to the previous i-drive screen, instead of having to press 'MENU' 'Navigation' etc....
but instead of going through idrive /menu / nav/ etc
just hold the idrive to the right (for nav, for example) for about 5 secs and it returns to your last viewed settings, no need to go via menu.
try it.

My Ride: 08 550 Carbon Sport Almost everything factory, but no sound upgrades.
One annoyance for me is the button on the middle of the dashboard to unlock the rear doors. (same on mrs. sixcard's E90) I am getting used to it but it would be so much better to have a way to unlock the rear doors form the drivers door.

maybe this has been said before???

Crappy interior. Holds up well, but looks cheap.
