I sure hope it doesn't get to that point. Years ago, when I had the Jeep from hell, it was the exact same problem unresolved three times. I just hope they at least come back and can identify what it is. Losing power and stalling on a local street is one thing. On the highway at cruising speed is another.

That sucks. I've seen failing batteries do some strange things on these cars, but nothing like that. Sounds like an issue with a module to me.

Not looking good. They don't know what it is, had to open a case with BMW. They did say they are taking a module out of another X6M and swap and see if that works.

Well...you are paying for an M car so tell them you want an M car as the loaner lol.

Seriously though, the manager (s) probably drive M's as company vehicles, they should just throw you one while they have yours.

They'll find out what's going on. If not maybe you'll get a new car out of it. They gotta cover you no matter what.

I confess that I passed somebody on double yellow lines this morning.

Minivan barely doing 35 in a 45 and the double yellow was 12 miles more. In what used to be a passing zone, I saw it was 100% clear and took my shot. I figured 4 points for tailgating vs 4 points for passing in a double yellow and went for it.

They gave me the finger and shook their fists but I was free

So, I went to the dealer this morning to swap out loaners. They put me in a brand new X5 with 1400 miles on the odometer.

I was talking to the SA and he said as of yesterday afternoon, my case was escalated to some engineering division in Germany. I'm not sure if I should be happy or concerned. He said they only do that when something is really strange. Stay tuned....

I'm going to the beach with the girls. The 3 wasn't big enough to fit all the stuff. Timing sucks. I look forward to drive down.

The 330 was pretty zippy.

I have to confess that there is now a vehicle with a slushbox automatic transmission in our driveway, and it feels icky! Hopefully my DW will make it go away before any of our friends see it. At least our names aren't on the title or registration.....

I confess - Although I appreciate it, me thinks they gave me a new X5 loaner because they think I'm going to be in it for a while.

It's not yours so you can drive it like you stole it.

Wait, I have a feeling you drive like that anyway. lol
