I mentioned the faulty suspension... figured they wouldn't find shit... however they found a fault with a front right sensor... which means another day of 430i

Wonder how much that will cost. Electronical dampers sound great in theory, but sound like a handful to maintain after the car starts to literally fall apart at 50k miles.

They're not real performance cars until you get into the M range.

That being said, it's a good balance between 328 spec and M spec for DD purposes.

I called SA at 11.30 and left a VM hoping to pick up the car after lunch... No call back
Called SA at 1pm didn't leave VM no call back
Called Main Line at 2.15 pm... on hold for 5 min... transferred to SA didn't pick up
Called Main line at 2.20pm on hold for 5 min ... transferred to random dude... on hold for 5 min... transferred to SA who PICKED UP. Told me it'll be another "couple of hrs". I told em I'll pick up the car tomorrow instead.
4 fucking phone calls... to get a status on the car. and 30 min of my life I won't get back.

BMW is just too pedestrian here. Way too many 's

We should see whose workplace is more

Workplace employees or workplace customers?

If it's customers, I'll win. I guarantee it.

Week before last I dropped my off for some work. Got there at 8:00. Picked up loaner and drove to work. Got a text at 10:30 to tell me my car was ready.

The idea of being on the hook for OEM adjustable dampers...

More ultimate service fuckery.
Get there at 10am to pick up car ... talk to 2 people... 15 min to drop off loaner
Ask to wait for my car to be pulled up
15min later no car...
I talk to the guy like “dude, where is my car”
He goes sorry sorry sorry sorry asks some pimple faced dude that looks like he works behind the counter at Krustys...
10min later ... car arrives and gets hard parked

45min to pick up a car... without driving there. All in all I think I spent 3-4 hrs between driving there and picking up and dropping off the car and calling to find out what is going on.

I could have done the same thing in 1 hr at home.

On a side note I think my rear tires are close to being Toast ... 3/32 is what they are claiming ... I got another 5k miles to go so that’s not gonna happen... gotta find a used set somewhere

Im amazed at what I read now for dealing with US dealers. The last one I had was my Audi dealer in LA and I never has this BS. I certainly have not had this type of experience here....ever. The average dealer here is smaller and that probably helps and the experience is much more personal. Im sorry you had this....

Easily at 5/32nd however these tires are a bit odd where they have grooves of different depths throughout the thread so it is difficult to measure accurately.
