I had better luck with my dealer. Went in told them throttle lag and rough idle and they went Oh that problem needs a software update, we will need the car overnight and here is a brand new (200 miles) 535i to tide you over until then. I am going to pick up my car later today and will report back on the idle and lag.

Mine is at the dealer as of yesterday. Funny thing happens everytime you go to the dealer for a fix. The drivers window which was really rattling a couple of days ago was almost quiet and the throttle response was good. But then on the off ramp; "the lag". I guess one out of two isn't bad!

I went to a new dealer and took a copy of the SIB. SA hadn't seen it and was going to give it to the shop foreman. I'm guessing that they're doing the update due to the length of time. Two days for just an oil change and a couple of little things would be quite long.
