Besides the alloys I ordered enhanced Bluetooth with wi fi, sun protection glass, fineline ridge wood and foglights. Didn't want to go overboard on the options as I think it is well specced to begin with.

A quick update on my collection disaster. After my 530i only making it off the dealers forecourt and then straight back on, it was with the dealer for nearly two weeks. I was then given two options, accept the repaired car with a chunk off the price, or reject it. Having had a previous car (Mercedes ML) that was a bit of a lemon that I wished I’d rejected straight away, I decided to take the rejection option this time.
I do really like the G30 though, so I’ve ordered a 540i xDrive instead. Hopefully this one won’t be a Friday afternoon build like the last one! Nothing could possibly go wrong a third time……….could it? |

EDIT : I found in other thread that u have some problem during drive.. So they fixed it after 2 weeks and then offered you to take a new car ? You made a good decission because the repaired car could be not repaired .. as we know ).. but unlucky in my country it would not be possible to replace it I think because we have in law that u must have "3 same problems during first 2 years to have the right for moneyback or taking new thing"..

Very long story short - I drove it off the dealers forecourt and within 10 seconds it came up with a Drivetrain Warning - so I turned around and took it straight back. |

I'm staying away from my other local dealer who were pretty crap when I bought a F10 535i from them. During a routine service, they managed to break the idrive software and by the time they had fixed that, they had buckled two of the alloys. Then when they replaced the alloys, they sliced one of the tyres as they shifted it to the new wheel - and without saying anything gave it back to me with a dangerous tyre where you could peel a 3 inch chunk of rubber back to the inner tyre wall. When I subsequently gave them a poor review on a BMW Customer Survey, I got a load of abuse from their service manager. Needless to say, I won't be giving them any more business! |

Sorry to hear about that glitch Incom , I trust your dealer will or anyone who is involving these will get it sorted out .
The last thing your experienced with your F10 is just nasty to put it as mildly as possible

We learned the hard way with our 2011 X3 one of the 1st produced a true lemon, BMW was honouring warranty jobs after the warranty expired 3 years later, like all 4 alloys corroding, bottom line the risks are always high with a new model just out, BMW tend to make modifications to the new cars after just 3 months to rectify screw ups not picked up by testing.
This time around my wife got her new X5 delivered last week, hopping this model well tested by BMW and buyers for the last 3 years will be hassle free touch wood. Never the less we love our cars, the 540i is an excellent choice, it should works out for you just fine! Quote:

What does 'confirmed' mean?

To be honest I am not sure..
But for me .. I feel like the car is not ordered yet or idk.. I signed everything + paid deposit 19.12.(on January they told me I must switch to FL cuz old one is not in production anymore).. and then on half of Febuary I switched to 5er.. So it all "started from start" - they told me usual waiting time for the new car is 2-3months.. The 4er was confirmed in 3 days - so when I switched to 5er they HAD to take the 4er (ofc with changed specs and ordered for saloon/stock) But the 5er is not confirmed yet they said.. It's really strange for me.. it's almost 2 months.. Dealer explained : I dont have it confirmed from German factory yet so I dont know when it will be ready for you and I cant promise you the end of April.. I am trying to contact him week by week and asking him if it's gonna be in April.. but In my mind I hope it will be to 15.5.... Now I am starting to think it will neither be the April nor the May..

Well after my spamming the dealer woken up.
I know now why he has been avoiding all my questions. He half promised me April.. after I signed he change it to "I hope". Then some informations like "usually this usually that bla bla". Now I told him I MUST know it cuz of credit. So he wrote me "well....I can confirm production in May but not the delivery. Depends in which week are they going to make it.. it could be delivered in June.." Typical Czech sellers style... promising unreal. |

My experience. The second day since collection: error in the KAFAS camera. The driving assist system doesn't work. Several warnings and message to go immediately to the dealer. As you can imagine, also a very dangerous issue. The dealer replaced the camera but as it wasn't specific to the G30, more warnings and again, of course, it doesn't work yet. Next step: waiting now to send the specific camera for the G30. Meanwhile the driving assistance plus package has no any use. BMW recommendation: next time you have to wait and use the driving assistance aids once the system learn about you driving style.

I hope it's gonna be ok. Thanks
Ye he was just ..... cuz he didn't want to tell me it will be much later than promised April. He tried to play dead to create as much time as possible and then tell it to me.. If he told me in Feb that it's gonna be June I would order it from other of Cze BMW saloon and he probably felt it from me.. Quote:
How exactly did u recognize it ? It showed an error ? I guess not by hitting some of these Wait and let car learn ur driving style is what, let it off first 1k miles or.. ? |

Yes. Several warning messages appeared, disabling the assistance systems (autobreak, person, obstacle). Now, with the replacement camera wrong, the system doesn't allow any type of activation of the driving assistance. |
