BMW headed in for service
Left work at 7, drove about 3 miles down the interstate, and the warning came on the the car was over heating. It basically shut down, no acceleration, won't hold speed. I dove off to the feeder, and it took an hour and a half to drive it back to work to pick up the work F150. Getting it towed to BMW tomorrow, at least it is CPO.

As much as I love to drive BMW's-I'd never own one. Car problems suck.

Yeah, it is a plug in chip, already pulled it and reconnected the factory stuff. BMW Roadside will be here within an hour they claim. |
