Yep, I refused renewal and left clear feedback as to why!

Yes been quoted 3k odd to replace, will prob swallow it as plan to keep a while and would probably ruin resale anyway. Pretty poor tho...

Just an update on this issue. Dealer had a look and raised it with BMW who rejected it. I then raised a complaint and that's come back negative as well. So, the message from BMW appears to be if your roof starts doing this you're on you own even if you bought the extended warranty. :mad: My...

As a fellow 2019 white Z4 M40i owner many congrats and welcome to the club, looking good! :) Reminds me I really must get some better pictures of mine ...

There are indeed knobs to twiddle but these are under the bonnet. If you look in the boot cubby hole on the RHS you will find a hex key which fits the "knobs". Open the bonnet and on each side you will find a couple of round plastic covers with a large screw slot - remove these and poke the hex...

Diamond cut every time for me, the black wheels don't stand out enough. But hey, totally subjective 😁

I bought the extended warranty so yes it is ...was thinking maybe worth a dealer look ...

Thanks TTZ4, that's really useful :)

Anyone else had this type of issue with their soft top? Thanks

Hi moroboshi I've had mine just over a year and still haven't really explored everything modes wise - that's fine thou as most of the time you can just stick it in drive and enjoy! As sars mentioned the gearbox is smooth and quick - really relaxing if you are just pootling along, but will kick...

The car warms you when the battery is getting low, at least mine did, so that scenario should be pretty unlikely 😀

I feel your pain. Always seems to happen to me when there's loads of traffic making braking and reversing somewhat challenging 😀

Well, after 7k (joyous) miles in the M40i, today the dreaded stone in brakes demon struck! Due to some roadworks I took a detour down some admittedly crappy roads and after a while noticed a weird noise. At first I wasn't sure whether it was just some debris stuck under the wheel arch - it...

Depends on how you look at it. Sure retail wise it may be effectively worthless, but if you fix the issue for £1500 and get a couple years more out of it then that's cheap motoring in a fun to drive car which still has most of the plus points that made it cost, what, £30k new. But then I hate...

So I guess it's a positive to see an electric roadster, albeit one that's a bit flawed, but I just could not live with those doors. I mean maybe if it was just a weekend plaything but as a daily driver (as the G29 is for me) turning up at Aldi (other supermarkets are available) ... :rofl:
