Re: BMW Portable Naviagation system

The service adviser said you need to send the car to them for checking ... take one day.

They seem to take very long to repair one fault. They have not fixed my rear light problem (warranty item). Going back another day to get my faulty light fixed.

Hey hey, welcome to PML!!! I think all the older birds here know about this. Not surprised that they'll take one long day just to fix up a simple fault!

Nowadays, I 'accumulate' the faults and send them in one shot when I do my servicing. And after the long day, you'll find that the faults are still not rectified!!!

After a while, you kindof giveup, and just let the faults be there and bear with it. No time to keep going up and down, bang tables too often also sian.... Unless the faults are major and no choice got to go down.

I went for my servicing about one month ago, and highlighted to them that my bonnet couldn't close properly, one side is slanted from the left to the right. After a long day, they told me that they had spent many hours trying to rectify it and finally it was done. I took my car in a rush and went off. When I reached home, I realised that the bonnet is now slanted from the right to the left!!! ~!@#$%^%$#@ I really give up!!!

A few days later, I went to BVO to fix up something else. Then the boys there realised that my bonnet is slanted and opened it up. After 5 minutes of fiddling, the bonnet now close swee swee already.

Need I say more??

Re: BMW Portable Naviagation system

Bros....i am also having the interference when the GPS detachable unit makes the announcement or in bluetooth phone mode. What i have noticed is that once you off the engine, the interference ( bluetooth) goes off!

Will probably call up my SE tomorrow. Got my E90 FL last fortnight.

Re: BMW Portable Naviagation system

don't think there is an immediate solution if it is a design/product flaw rather than some loose or improper connections

Re: BMW Portable Naviagation system

Mr Mambo, could you let us know if PML could resolve the interference problem after sending your ride in?

Cheers buddy.

Apparently they are going to replace another head unit for me and they said that the reprogramming part takes 2 days.

I have lots of outstanding problem beside this problem that i need to settle with PML and i only had my car for less than a month.

I suggest you make an appointment with them and demand a courtesy car so you will not be handicapped.

Re: BMW Portable Naviagation system

Read some forum messages that PML uses "foreign talent"

Not that foreign talent no good... that the foreign talent can't understand english well? hahahaha
