Hey all, I'm back.
Picked up a 2017 F31 last Friday, love it. I do have an odd question though. Every single pic I've seen (non msport), has red stitching on the steering wheel, but if I look for pics of the interior, every single one is plain. I have red stitching on front and back seats and on all the doors. Is there a reason for this? I also have black exhaust tips and a black rear accent strip where they have been silver in every single pic I've seen. Just wondering why this car is a little different... Loving it though |

Oh, from a friend, this was probably a special option, which is interesting:
"for vehicles with leather Dakota/black/akzent-rot LCL3=yes Upholstery LEDER DAKOTA/SCHWARZ/AKZENT ROT ( LCL3 ) |

Thanks, looks like it was an option when Sport Line was selected. Looks like that's why I have the black trim, too. Wasn't clear on the window sticker what triggered it.

Hallo
Hi I am new here to this forum.
I just want to ask you whether I can fill the oil with FUCHS (5W-40) and add some additive CERATEC LIQUI MOLY to the oil ? Can I use Costco 91 gas or not? Can I use windshiled Liquid from any store? Can I use Zimmerman Brake Pads & Rotors? I have 320i 2014 Sport Package Thx |

Looks great! Unknown on the new 3 series wagon to the US. A lot of place say it won't... we'll see soon enough.

Going on year 5 with my F31. It's been flawless so far. I still love it just as much as the day I got it.

She cleans up nice

Ok so it’s a long story that I will bore chaps with if requested but not if not.
I have been a VAG chap for over 30 years and whilst I still like the product the customer service my wife and I have received over the last 3 years leaves something to be desired so...... With early retirement fast approaching I started to look for a car to last me well into retirement - intending to take my time and enjoy the process. I have never owned a BMW and decided to go see...... I test drove an F31 330d M Sport Touring - wow! Having no experience I did not really appreciate just how well specified this car was - it was awesome and definitely ticked nearly all my boxes........but...... It was the first car I was test driving and being a careful soul I wanted to see other cars on the market - this was late January ..... so off I poped and started looking... Problem was everything I looked at, I found myself comparing it with the BMW above and they didn’t stand up. So 2 weeks ago I found myself back at the BMW dealer. The car was still available - lucky me. Deal was done and I was happy. However my father passed away that weekend - the arrangements all fell to me, and with a long holiday looming as well I have ended up paying for the car in full with the dealer agreeing to store it until my return in June ! I told you it was a long holiday! So I am the proud new owner of a 12 months old 330d M Sport Touring with an amazing spec (detailed later) with 9k on the clock and still covered by the BMW warranty for 2 years at least- but I can’t play with it til June - frustrating or what! Spec 330d M Sport Touring in Alpine white (colour I wanted) Adaptive M Sport suspension Steering wheel heating Reversing camera (on my tick list) Pan Roof (on my tick list) Sun protection glass Extended storage Heated seats Driving assistant Park assist RTTI Concierge service Remote services Online entertainment Enhanced Bluetooth -wireless charging Full black panel display WiFi hotspot prep Nav Pro (on my tick list) Head - up display (NOT on my tick list but should have been!) Speed limit display Interior comfort package Innovation package Sport auto trans LED fogs front LED headlights And other bits and bobs I have asked them to fit a removable Towbar - I have a small day sailor that I will tow occasionally. (Again on my tick list). I would have liked electric memory seats but hey ho! My first question is about the Towbar - is the westfalia the best to go for? My second is about the LED headlights - they are not the adaptive ones - but what is involved when a “bulb” goes? Are they a sealed unit and if so how many mortgages will I need to replace one? How long are they expected to last? Has anyone any experience of having to change one? Are they covered by the BMW Warranty? It appears I have told most of the long story ..... Sorry for boring you But answers to these (and other!) questions will be much appreciated And now for the admission that I think many on here will never forgive me for....... The car was on 19” 403 M light star spoke wheels which I asked to be changed back to the 18” variety with 45 profile tyres - as I prefer to have tyres rather than rubber bands on the wheels especially in run flats - even 45 profile is less than I really like. The dealer, unsurprisingly, obliged! The price did reflect this change and I am happy. Thank guys Roy Last edited by Royboy63; 03-30-2019 at 01:55 PM.. |

Congrats on a great car! I have an AW M Sport (2015 328i gas). Unfortunately I don't have a tow bar or LED's to answer your questions. That is a long wait! Not sure I could do it. Best of luck with the car!

So if you are in the app... go to the Forums-3/4- F30/F31 etc then the top thread on General F30 Forum, on the top right is a white circle with a blue pencil - then you need a title and do your thread.
