Small stories of real life...
I got yesterday a tyre pressure warning.
I though; once again a fake alarm.
Well, I had less than a mile to home, so I ignored the IDrive
This morning I drove to a gas station nearby to check the tire pressures.
For sure one of the tires airventile cup was a black plastic one, not the metallic OEM!?...
But what makes my wondering is, that the same right rear tires pressure was lowered to some 50
What's this?
a) That car is so nice, a need a part of it
b) I want one, but can't have one, so let's steal/harm it
c) I just hate you for the fine E60
d) Kids just fu**ing around?
