Cheers Bimmer. With regard to the grilles, the dealer was fine in the end. Had the grilles and the chrome exhaust pipe for £185 fitted. Chuffed with that. The pictures are a bit low quality so the colours are all over the palce. The siena wood trim works far better than I thought, the wife and my son picked the colour scheme. By the way you do get the chrome ashtray cups now, they were in the car, as was netting and a few other bits and bobs I wasn't expecting. As for the maunal box will let you know.

Have a quick look to see if the ashtray cups have part numbers stamped on (I know others have looked with no joy) Enjoy

Had chance to use the remote iPhone app to set the climate in the car today. Some people have said it's disabled but it worked for me earlier. I set the timer, got to the car a couple of minutes after the start time and when I opened the car the air con was on and it was cold. Could come in very handy
Has anyone else got this working?

Sfax, neat app!
I did a roadtrip Leicestershire to Celtic Manor and drove mainly on cruise at 70mph (average speed 64.5 according to trip) - only got 45.6 mpg which I was a little dissapointed as my old 520d returned mid 50s on a similar run. Daily average at 35.8 but driving with a slightly heavy right foot!

Very disappointing but still not bad for a 4x4. Does make you wonder though how they managed to return the mpg they claim even in lab conditions.

You motivated me to try the climate timers but I just keep getting data error during transmission so can't get it to trigger.
I can find the location of my car so a signal can reach it. Shame really, it is quite useful. Will check settings in my BMW assist menu in case I need to activate it or something. |

I have driven my x35i M-Sport (no DHP) for several weeks now. Everything about the car seems great. The suspension is soft and supple but firm when needed during driving. The only issue about the suspension setup is that bobbing when you bring the car to a stop. After the car stops, you can really feel the car bob up and down at least 3-4 times before it stabilizes itself. This is the thing I hate most about the ride so far. My dealer screwed my order up and didn't get me DHP. But I don't know how much that would help in this scenario. Maybe I'm just not used to a larger car that may exhibit this more than a sedan.

Shifter to the left just puts the transmission in M/S mode; this is independent of Electronic Damping Control (Normal/Sport/Sport+). |

I agree on 2. This is annoying. I would also like 11 and 13 and you're not the first to want 12
