Thanks for the reassurance guys.
I'm 24 and this is gonna be my first proper car. So you can imagine my horror when I start reading threads talking about engine flat-spots. I had test driven the Audi A4 and Jag X-Type and decided to go for the BMW mainly for the engine and handling. Then I read some of the messages on this forum and start think "hmmm.....maybe I should've gone for the Audi instead...."
Oh well......if its not as bad as its sounds then I guess its something I could live with. Just hoping an update is issued before my car goes into production.
BTW any UK owners with Nav Pro? Does RDS work properly? Anyone tried MP3 CD's with Navi - getting the same result as our American cousins?
