Looks great Andre. Looks even better in person.

I'm sure he's aware of it if that is indeed the case.

Actually I am. Everybody always swears that Vorstiener fitment is OEM but when the dealership put the bumper on they said it wasn't. They said that they had to modify it a bit and trim some stuff and drill extra holes to get it on there. I would say the fitment is probably around 90% correct. There is a bit of a gap between the hood and the front bumper as well as between the bumper and the the driver-side fender. For now, its not bothering me (yet). I may ask them to readjust it if they can but they were really reluctant to work on it in the first-place since it wasn't OEM.

90% correct??? and you are ok with that Andre? You have a $65 grand car, it should be 99% if not 100% IMO for the money that thing probably cost.

Yeah man come by. I will probably drive it to work Friday. Just hit me up.

So on another note, my car was making all kinds of weird noises on monday so I brought it back to the dealer. They just called me, the problem was a 10 cent bolt on the differential that broke. The replaced it and now all is good.

Man, BMW and their service lately has really sucked. I felt some of their nonsense of not wanting to fix things that were clearly not correct. So glad I am no longer dealing with it, BMW NA and their regional reps are not in business to please their customers or do right by them. They only have BMW corporate in mind and don't give two shits if the customer is clearly correct. Fricking bottom line.

This. Although, it did take forever and a day, they did get mine fixed at least.

Any issues with that S4 yet? Except your left leg being bored?

forza1976 · 07-20-2011, 04:16 PM

Only one issue, a seal on the real axle was bad and dripped some spots in my garage. Audi took care of it through a TSB I provided them as several 2011 owners had this issue. Rumor has it, it was due to a third party assembler that caused the issue. I didn't care, it was under warranty and I got a nice Q5 loaner that was pretty fun. And I was able to use it to transport my new winter wheels and tires to get them mounted up that day. Killed two birds with one stone.

I will not be in the office on Friday... maybe next week sometime.

Hope the bolt is the only issue.

F82_SID · 07-25-2011, 02:37 PM

This is so fucking gay!!!! So I picked up my car last friday. On monday I took it back because it was making some awefull noises and because the Bass in my car wasent working. Well..... They fixed the noises with a 10 cent bolt. However, they said my amp went out on me so they had to order a new one. It was supposed to be in Friday but it didnt come so my SA told me monday. I just called and now they are saying that the amp is on back order and nobody has it in stock. They are going to have to order one from Germany. So, I still dont have my car! I could go get it right now but it wont have any stereo at all working.

This sucks!

Bimmer This · 07-25-2011, 04:50 PM

you really need a working stereo to drive your car?????

I can't believe you don't have your car because of an amp. That's not an efficient use of resources (i.e. loaner car)
