My Ride: Retired 2008 535i Titanium-silver with sport, premium, steptronic, NAV, HUD
Retired 2006 525i
Finally took delivery of my 535i SP.
Definitely lives up to it's billing as the Ultimate Driving Machine.
Much more composed and stable as compared to my ex-2006 525i. Does not slide around. And I take everything back about what I've said on Runflats. My wife could not tell whether the ride was harsher as compared to my old pre-lci 525 non-sport.
Two things need re-adjustment:
1- Height adjustment of HUD
2-My steering wheel is about 5 degrees off center.
Are these possible and how much would they cost.

To answer your question their should be no charge just call the dealer and let them know there ia a problem. In regards to the steering wheel when I picked up mine it had the same exact problem. I noticed it when I was driving to Virginia. I called the dealer from Virginia and they told me to bring it in as soon a I return. When I returned 3 days later I took it to the dealer and they gave it a wheel allignment which fixed the problem. There should be no charge for these fixes.
Hope that helps, Rick...

about the height adjustment for your HUD u might want to search around the forum as this topic has been previously discussed.
i believe the only way to correct your steering wheel problem is to have wheel alignments done. your dealer should do this for u with no charge considering how new your car is.

Congrats on the car!
The HUD adjustment information is in the FAQ forum...take a look around there and you should learn what's up about that.
As far as the steering wheel issue, if the car has active steering, the misaligned wheel is often fixed with a simple reset via software. If there is no active steering, then I suppose the remedy would be for an actual alignment...

Yeah - I've had the steering wheel off-center issue.. was pretty bad actually (when i purchased the car with 10K miles)..
Since it has active steering, they simply performed a 'software reset' and the wheel goes back to 0*
Hopefully you've got active steering because it's a simple fix and also an excellent option to have
Cheers!

Thank you all for your help. Hopefully the dealer closest to me won't give me a hard time because I got my car from a neighboring state.
