"BMW takes X5 to new levels" by
Mike
BMW takes X5 to new levels
I believe the new X5 will not disappoint; in fact, it will surprise a
current X5 owner and those new to BMW or the sport activity vehicle
category.

BMW will offer an M version of the Z4 roadster
I drove drive the Z4 M Roadster in the mountains in the Andalusia area
in southern Spain and at the Jerez racetrack in order to fully
appreciate its driving qualities.

"CHECK BRAKE LININGS/LIGHTS" "BRAKES" by
Ro
The "check brake lining" and "brakes" lights on my 2002 530I recently
came on and I replaced all the brake pads and sensors myself due to
having some knowledge of doing that. I thought that would make the
lights go away but they are still there. Is there something that needs
to be reset?If so, how...

"Efficient Dynamics" pah! by
David Slelton
Hi again All
Any one else tried the "Efficient Dynamics" models with electric power
assisted steering (not the active steering) ?
I found them to be quite vague and lacking in feedback to the extent that it
does not feel like a BMW should.
The "Brake Energy Regeneration" is not real brake energy...

"ELV blocked" by
alt.autos.bmw[_2_]
Not a lot of information out there in the wild I could find… What
exactly does this mean? It started happening on my E60. Dealer said I
needed to replace the battery due to low current ---- throwing that
error. New battery….. Same issue. Seems to be related to temp dipping

amenities, not to mention blistering performance capability.

"loads" of BMW dealers to close next year by
Tommy[_15_]
In the UK there's to be at least a 10% cut in the BMW dealership network
plus a BMW direct sales website with discounted or rather "Internet price"
new vehicles
I really hope some of those arrogant little ******* who call themselves
salespeople are forced to sell KIAs :-)

Hello All,
I brought my car into the dealer for an alignment job. The tech
called me later saying that under the current conditions of the
suspension, that alignment would be wasted money. He cited a few
items that sound pretty expensive, so I had him pull the plug until I

"Total Loss" lowballing 2736 by
Just Getting Square
Apparently, insurance company repairs as well as 'total loss' claims are lowballed as a general practice. I just read an article at www.claimsreporter.com that says that you can get on average, the ~$2K difference needed to get a replacement ride (vs. trade-in)... for sure, if it was not your...

'00 3 Series Transmission by
Jeff Strickland[_2_]
I have a chance to buy another '00 3 Series that is very clean and has
reasonable miles, and I know the owner -- a little old lady that only goes
to the store.
Anyhow, she says the trans does not shift into R when it's cold. She has to
wait for the fluid to get warm -- I'm not sure how she...
