My Ride: 2009 BMW 530i
Ever since this month, every time I start my car it idles roughly for about 5 minutes and it will then become smooth. I just finished the break-in period and I don't wanna take it to the service center yet. I take my cars to the service center every 3 months and I am hoping to take my 5er there next month.
Is this a serious problem?

It should take 30 seconds, not 5 minutes.

you need to get that checked out by the dealer. Oh and by the way, WELCOME TO THE FORUM, you may notice there are a few other members from HK - not many, I think the HK members thread is a mere 880 pages, that's all
