Replace or repair interior door trim in my F31
I picked up a used 2014 BMW 3 series Sport Touring at the weekend, and on the drive home noticed a few interior scuffs and dings that I'd somehow missed during the test drive.
They're on the front passenger door: just below the window, on the armrest. https://imgrpost.com/image/oUEzU https://imgrpost.com/image/oUuFN And on the left rear passenger door: just below the window. https://imgrpost.com/image/oUnI6 They're minor in the scheme of things but niggly and annoying. Can anyone recommend a sane (hopefully cost effective) way to get these replaced with new parts, or otherwise fixed? Main BMW dealer or an independent BMW specialist? I'm in Hertfordshire FWIW, in case anyone can recommend a specific garage. Thanks |

I noticed damage on my rear door card when I got home on collection day. Car was 7 months with 8000 miles. Eventually got a full door card replacement by the supplying dealer.

I'm not sure I'd have the same luck, but good job on getting the dealer to play ball.

I had an issue with a cracked plexiglass that covers the speedo etc when I first bought my AUC. Didn't notice during test drive but did when picked up. The plexiglass can't be changed it's the whole unit at £800.00 parts only! So offered to make a contribution in cost to get it sorted locally instead of driving 3 hrs to Oxford again and possibly staying overnight whilst they replace. You could offer to contribute?

That must have been one destructive toddler.
