On the upside, due to an o2 sensor problem with the Jeep, I took the 318 for a spin to drop off the lady at the train for work. Traction control warning light came off once I put it into gear. Yay. One less problem to deal with. The lady was a bit paranoid me driving it on the road with expired paper plates, but I had to take the time to explain to her that if a car sits for too long weird problems just start appearing because they like to be driven. Not quite sure she got it, but she certainly got to the train on time. Haha. I think she's a bit afraid of the BMW because I gave her a taste of drifiting for a few seconds just for fun. But WTH, I love it. I only bought the Jeep for work purposes.
The microswitch on the doors and the dimmer are still problems. But manageable. Of course the windows, but the windows is more a problem due to a hard to find item and problems with the mechanic doing the pulls and the shipping company smashing one. How that mechanic came up with "Place around back by appliances" with "Place around back with the garbage" I'll never know. Good thing it wasn't garbage day, but being the wrong side window at least it didn't get crushed in a garbage truck and I can send it back.
Have to hand it to AllBMWParts though, the man isn't the cheapest option but he can always seem to find what nobody else can find. Between the shipping company smashing a window and the mechanic sending me the wrong window he was ready to just load a pallet with the whole door and send it direct to my installer and then have the remainder of the door sent back. |
