4000 miles so far... (archive)

Just passed 4000 miles. Still no hard top and its getting cold here.
Pinking at start I am assured is the vanos unit starting without oil, and nothing to worry about!

Engine is noticibly starting to loosen now. After the initial tip toeing of a new car....I now drive it with the sport button LED permanently ON...!! It does not affect the steering though...only the accelerator pedal. Maybe you have it different in the US?

Only other thing is a BMW recall to change the dipstick? No reason given.

Regards Dave
