25k service and a little ramble

So got my car in for a service yesterday.

Went to pick it up and they couldn't start the car. It was cranking but wouldn't tick over

I had a 316 loaner so they said i can drive that till they fix it.

Anyway today i picked it up. Basically in a nut shell the fuel line was blocked and fuel was not getting to the engine (something to do with air)

He said its caused by running your tank to low (which i admit i do way to many times because i am lazy).

Anyway car is back and feels great. I feel good that the oil change was done...25k. So not use to that.

I got a 316 M sport loaner. Apart from having less power (obviously), this thing sounded different, the transmission felt different, with the lower power just felt very different. Really made me appreciate my car again

One thing i noticed on the steering wheel was the Limit button. this basically sets a speed limit so you cant go over that no matter how much you push the accelerator. I really loved this function on my old C W204. Did they introduce this to the 2015 models or is it in the 2014 models and i just dont know how to use it

I've got the limit function on my 2015 328i. You can override it by accelerating aggressively. Tbh, I don't really use it. Tried it a couple of times for the novelty when I got the car but then didn't bother again.
