New Roof Motor

[Hunter]

Well i bit the bullet yesterday and took the Z to BMW Synter Nottingham for the investigation of why my roof wasnt working...today my bank account is £1100 lighter but my roof goes up and down..but i think the Z will be going back to them tomorrow because when fully down the red light is still flashing.............oh and they seem to have kept my service history booklet

Yikes! £1,100 is steep

Just in time for the weather though..... and you can't put a price on that. Imagine having having a roof that wouldnt go down in this weather... or even worse, a coupe

 

[Hunter]

Awww bless those poor coupe owners

Ouch! What was the fault?

If the answer is the motor then the solution is to chase BMW for goodwill! Good luck!

1100 Quid? Bloody heck. I got quoted 700 Euros in germany but having discovered my "Warranty" from BMW is essentially worthless Ive done it myself for nowt.

I'm going with a BMW exclusive private mechanic for $700.00 :!:
Car was under warrantee when signs of problem began now diagnostic for $50 tells me my problem. NOT happy today..
