[zeromax]

i bet the maids tot im a kuku bird....rinse, wipe and COVER my car everyday...hahaha..i will last another 1 month....and then i will go spray the color of my car..hahha

Did I see wrongly??? Go and spray the car?? Lolz... White is so nice!!! Why change your horsy?? Your Horsy will be sad de lo!

 

[zeromax]

Wah welcome welcome, another person who is anal about his whitey. My neighbours probably think I m nuts since I basically hand wash my ride when I get home if the day has rained. I hand wash it once in 3 days if there's no rain. All water wash only

You all so fierce!! Wash everyday... Make me look pale in comparison :0

Re: Calling all 1 series owners...

Always look positive and will not go crazy, positive as in there's satisfaction of a nice clean whitey done by yourself... that is what I do to keep sane

Maybe you could consider BMW OEM vehicle cover customed for your model, these are water & wind prove. You can take a look at an example of e cover from e link below (example is meant for E82).

I am not sure if there's any OEM from BMW for F20.

I wished I had a cover like that for the last 2 weeks. I had been reporting to camp for ict and the parking area is a free frag zone birds...... Damm it!

Yes, I got it too. But when I checked, there was no signs of leakage. Suspect the sensor may be faulty since the error message goes away after re-starting the car.

I am still monitoring it.

Hey bro,

It seems f20 lot flaws and manufacturing defects, very dissapointing indeed. Most of us are having similar issue or another, wonder if anyone care to write to bmw asia or germany to highlight to them or suggest to them to mass fix all f20 or to put it simply a recall exercise to get it sorted out. Otherwise, should those problems surface after warranty expire, all of us gotto pay like a carrot. M-Nut, what say you?? Can you help??

Well, we can start a problem thread for f20 and list down all the issues and submit it to PML for feedbacks!

did u open up the bonnet and chk the coolent?
in my case, it happen tat the coolent water level is really low. but after i top up, it appear again.
wnt bk to pml, they did a pressure test n found no leak. so suspect the sensor faulty.
hence, they replace the whole coolent tank as the sensor is attached w it. after then seem ok now.
