So for a little bit of fun on this horrible wet and windy day

What did you do to your BMW today??? (To it, for it, bought for it, anything related?)

shortie · 10-02-2012, 11:28 AM

I reset my automatic gearbox and cannot believe how much difference it has made.

I also received these in the post

106turbo · 10-02-2012, 11:49 AM

Got a 335 rear diffuser ready to get an exhaust made up.

AWBimmer · 10-02-2012, 11:51 AM

I bought (yesterday) Poorboy's Wheel Sealant, Poorboy's Leatherstuff, Autofinesse Spritz and the Werkstat Acryllic Kit as well as the the 2012 Updated Satnav Disc yesterday which all arrived today. If this counts, my upgraded iPhone also came through the post today! So many packages I felt like a kid!!

Expecting my Hertz HDP4 Amp to also come through at 6pm tonight

Have you won the lottery lol

I'll let the pictures tell the story....

(On Sunday):

(Courtesy Car):

(Today):

Got the new tyre on earlier today!

Apparantley you can do 30miles once you've punctured your run flats ... I probably managed 5.

BMW recovery were excellent. Recovery to home. Courtesy Car. Recovery to tyre place. Excellent customer service.

Glad I'm not the only one who has a retail therapy/bi-polar spending issue.

Lol, just went a little crazy on ebay but the poorboys + dvd came in at a whopping £35 odd squidd so can't complain!

NJ 1161 · 10-02-2012, 12:55 PM

Looked at mine in disgust wondering why a flat battery is causing me so much grief!! ( steering wheel lock red dash) !? Can't move, full stop!

Subzero2003 · 10-02-2012, 12:56 PM

Got pissed off with it.

Cracked rear alloy and BMW are being morons. Why does everything always have to be so difficult with BMW? You pay through the nose for everything for these cars and are rewarded with **** customer service and a company who specialise in denying responsibility for everything.

Brian mc21 · 10-02-2012, 01:05 PM

I have had no dealings with them but what you just posted sums up my thoughts exactly.

Hahaha I got the run flat light on my dashboard, called BMW emergency service, they said I can do another 30 miles. 5 miles later ....

DavS1 · 10-02-2012, 02:01 PM

Thought about driving it to work, thought about washing it, then it rained!

FRG · 10-02-2012, 02:45 PM

Gave it £86 worth of Shell's finest, switched the traction off and drove it like I stole it for a fair chunk of my journey home
