Me too!

The radio screen... Only works right when it's cold out? Wtf and I've seen it in many of them what bs!

HoustonBMWClub · 11-24-2012, 05:04 PM

The fact that with only 30k miles, it is still giving me problems.

jheath · 11-24-2012, 09:01 PM

Cupholders are completely ill conceived.
Key / remote needs to be very close to door to open.
Makes me drive like a maniac.

Dozhdbog · 11-25-2012, 02:22 AM

I LOVE the cupholders.

Other than that, the car is shit.

And its still there on the f30. I never fail. Every first attempt. Rear windows. I am not gonna look down to open some damn wkndows. But then i also hit the sos flap when trying to open the sunroof. Lol.

galahad05 · 11-25-2012, 10:57 AM

I thought I'd read somewhere that even back for the mid-cycle refresh BMW had relocated the window controls back toward the driver by an inch?

This.

saxon · 11-25-2012, 03:52 PM

misfires , even after all new coils/plugs/injectors/fuel pump
window switches
cupholders
suspension wears quickly
no oil dipstick
headlights break easy (pre lci xenons)
soft windshield (everything that hits it leaves a mark)
no hole for aux cord in arm rest
dealers dont know how to troubleshoot a problem without a cel
RFT
NO TRUNK SPACE, have to take drivers out of golf bag just to fit it in the trunk

Phatblackhatch · 11-25-2012, 04:04 PM

- Door Loock\Unlock
- No Dipstick, No Temp Gauge
- Electronic dipstick that takes forever to read
- Jack points that require you to make jack stands just for the car
- The wear rate on the steering wheel..its almost smooth now...87K on the clock

Im sure theres more. But besides that the car is a treat

e92ben · 11-25-2012, 06:03 PM

Hate our wastegates lol
Hate window switch position
Hate seatbelt assist (deactivated never really caught the belt)
Don't like that you have to open the trunk to fold the seats..
Hate that my aluminum trim is so easily dented/pitted. Looks nice big upclose you can see alot of little marks...
Everything else I love...
Except the novillo leather I have. I looooove the look and feel, but it's not strong...
(M3 full interior with sport cloth)
Also ^^ I play alot of sports and run work out etc the sport cloth is a bitch to clean dry sweat marks by lower back area

gregnm369 · 11-25-2012, 07:49 PM

Storage for things like phone accessories and misc stuff is minimal at best.

There is no notch cut out of the center to allow an aux cord to easily pass through outside of the armrest.

The glovebox is not deep enough.

The rear cup holder is awkward at best.

amuzement · 11-25-2012, 08:17 PM

The glovebox is way too small.
The trunk takes a little too much force to close.
The night mode on the map should be automatic when the headlights turn on.
Brake dust.

icecold21 · 01-14-2013, 05:56 PM

Haven't seen this mention yet but it drives me fuckin nuts. The heat/AC button, its just one button for both, gets stuck all the damn time and sometimes wont turn off. It is the WORST out of any car I've ever owned. Pathetic for a luxury vehicle.

Besides that, the belt butler has worked liked twice since I've owned it, it always misses.

Someone else mention the fact that bluetooth, remote start, power seats, etc isn't standard.

No spare sucks.

omerfar23 · 01-14-2013, 08:21 PM

i wish it remembered my fog light setting....

Digtlartst · 01-14-2013, 08:24 PM

Hard-as-a-rock RF tires! RF tires! RF tires!

Did I mention RF tires?

N8N · 01-14-2013, 09:04 PM

I hate how every time I panic stop the rear seats fold down. (gonna have to see why they're not latching)

mynycbimmer · 01-14-2013, 09:18 PM

The soft paint, scratches and marks so easily.

Pothole explosions due to the suspension and/or RFTs.

Liang · 01-14-2013, 09:22 PM

Pre-lci e92 outter angel eye rings don't fully lit up
First to second gear is a bit notchy
