On leaving the garage they did not inflate the tyres pressure to the correct pressure and had to then go and fill it up myself.

12 May 2019 : After travelling back from a long drive from London to Newcastle Upon Tyne we found there was an oil leak. As we could see smoke coming from the bonnet and a burning smell coming into the interior of the car when we had just pulled up home. Called the BWM assistance guys and they came out right away. You could see where the oil had leaked as the guy showed us. He said it looks like the leak came from the rocker cover and leaked because of that. They took the car away and got a replacement hire car for now.

28th June 2019: The car was back in due to the smell of the oil still in the car and the front grills not opening. They cleaned the engine they said and replaced the bottom radiator blind and scratched the bonnet while cleaning it.

9th July 2019: The car was in for the scratch on the bonnet to be rectified.

29th July: The coolant low indicator came on, The coolant was topped up about 9 months earlier and considering it is just gone 2 years now this is too soon for it to be topped up again. They have done some diagnosis and found that there was a coolant leak and have replaced the cooling hose. At the same time i have got them to look over the whole engine as i stated i don't want to be in a situation when i am out of warranty something happens and i will have a big bill.

I have been told i should get the car back friday 2nd August so will update further then or if anything comes up sooner.

Anyone else have any of these issues?

G30 530i M Sport i have

Thanks
Nearly 22k done in year and half. Only one service so far but no major issues. Had an oil over the limit error about 9 months ago if my memory serves right. It was sorted with a software update.
