Congrats on your BMW 550, just one question thou, the idrive is a ceramic dial right. When you turn it does it eventually got stuck and then release again. I asked the dealer and they told me its normal for the cerami dial. Thanks!

The nightmare now begins, took my car to BMW for the fuel pump replacement that was on recall, I told them about my oil consumption being high and so they checked it out, they've had my car 3 days now and yesterday she calls me and tells me I need a new engine. I am beyond devastated. I feel like I lost a loved one.

Just go pick up your car and tell them thanks for nothing, have a good day. They told me the same thing...

Btw they did give you a loaner while your car is in for the recall right?

Theoretically the v8 twin turbos are good engines on paper, but they are just problems on wheels. I would've loved to own one, but they're just unpractical if they don't have a warranty and basically over 70k mi. Tbh the 535i has enough power for me and will pull quicker than most cars on the road. Good luck man, that definitely sucks
