Rain

[Carol M]

It's raining so hard it just set off the zed's alarm!

 

[marchantsuk]

Oh no another fault

 

[ksher]

It happens to my E89 as well. Not a fault.

 

[Carol M]

No it's not a fault. The rain that's coming down the poor car thinks someone's got a hammer to it!

Phew
May need to pick your brains on your recent BMW issues. Did you have any high level BMW UK contact?

Not raining here yet Might go to the beach

 

[rhys4]

reject it .not fit to cope with the weather.

 

[original guvnor]

Might not be a fault but its certainly a design flaw!

Sounds like dealer talk - if they all do it, it is not a fault

I have trouble with my roof as well - but that is on the house, as workmen replacing windows have cracked some tiles and felt and now I have water coming in through the ceiling into the hall :x

Love the drumming of rain on the canvass roof when driving. Sad, I know....

Heavy ( big blob ) rain, and hail set my E89 alarm off. At least it gives me a valid excuse to go out and admire it.

 

[pvr]

Just be glad it is not as big as this fellow X5 owner, with a 7 week old car ...

Sun's come out here now after 24 hours of continuous rain. Water is still coming up out of the sewage covers in the road, flowing down the road and off into the rain drains. How does that work?

Still it gives my roof motor a good test as I took it out the garage yesteday for some room and its been stood in it ever since. Good news is it just cycled up and down perfectly on the key from my office

You're not alone!

Interesting fix tho!

I reckon its the rain running down the inside of the windows that's set the alarm of Carol

 

[pvr]

You mean you need to close the windows during the rain?
